Which Life Does The Intelligent One Prefer And Strive For...




بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا 16

وَالْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَىٰ 17

But you prefer the life of this world; Although the Hereafter is better and more lasting.(Sura 87. Al-A’lā 16-17)

Imaam ‘Abdur Rahmān as-Sa’dee رحمه الله said:

He is not intelligent, one who prefers that which is lowly and will perish (the life of this world) over that which will remain forever and is priceless (the Hereafter).”
