O People who Believe! May not your wealth or your children cause you to neglect the remembrance of Allah; and whoever does this – so it is they who are in a loss. 9 And expend of that wherewith We have provided you afore death cometh unto one of you, and he saith: 'my Lord! wouldst Thou not defer me for a short term, so that I would give alms and become of the righteous. 10 But God does not grant a soul respite once its term has come to end. And God is aware of what you do. 11
