Tafsir Ibn Kathir on At-Tawbah 9:85

Surah At-Tawbah 9:85



ﲳ ﲴ ﲵ ﲶ ﲷ ﲸ ﲹ ﲺ ﲻ ﲼ ﲽ ﲾ ﲿ ﳀ ﳁ ﳂ ﳃ

And let not their wealth and their children impress you. Allah only intends to punish them through them in this world and that their souls should depart [at death] while they are disbelievers.

Allah says;

وﻻ تعجبك أموالهم وأوﻻدهم إنما يريد الله أن يعذبهم بها في الدنيا وتزهق أنفسهم وهم كافرون

And let not their wealth or their children amaze you. Allah only wants to punish them with these things in this world, and that their souls shall depart (die) while they are disbelievers. We mentioned before the explanation of a similar Ayah (see Ayah 55), all the thanks and praises are due to Allah
