Believers, do not let either your possessions or your children divert you from the Remembrance of Allah. Those who do that shall be the losers. 9 And spend (in charity) of that with which We have provided you, before death comes to one of you and he says: "My Lord! If only You would give me respite for a little while (i.e. return to the worldly life), then I should give Sadaqah (i.e. Zakat) of my wealth, and be among the righteous [i.e. perform Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah)]. 10 God will never grant respite to any soul when its appointed time has come. God is Well-Aware of what you do. 11
