Qur'an: Striving for More

In the name of God, the Lord of Mercy, the giver of Mercy,

Striving for more distracts you until you go into your graves. No indeed! In the end you will come to know. No indeed! If only you knew for certain. You will most definitely see Hellfire, you will see it with the eye of certainty. On that Day, you will be asked about your pleasures.

*the parable of Lazarus in the new testament describes a rich man, who refused to give money to the beggar Lazarus, burning in hell. Immediately after this comes Christ's famous statement that man cannot serve two masters. Just sayin'.
