Surah at-Takathur ayah 2
Hatta zurtum al-maqabir
Until you visit your graves
The following is an excerpt of commentary on this ayah:
You drunken and confused lot! You who take delight and indulge in rivalry for wealth, children and the pleasures of this life - from which you are sure to depart! You who are absorbed with what you have, unaware of what comes afterwards! You who will leave the object of this rivalry, and what you seek pride in and go to a narrow hole wherein there is no rivalry or pride! Wake up and look around, all of you! For indeed, "rivalry for worldly gain distracts you until you visit your graves".
