# 102 Rivalry in world increase (At-Takathur) Explanation of # 102 Rivalry in world increase (At-Takathur)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful

O mankind, you have been distracted by the rivalry of piling up worldly gains against one another.[1] You will never be satisfied until you get into the grave.[2] Nevertheless, soon you shall come to know.[3] Again, nevertheless, soon you shall come to know.[4] Nay! Would that you knew through the real knowledge provided to you in this Qur’an and care about your life in the Hereafter.[5] Because on the Day of Judgment when you shall see the hell,[6] and see it with the certainty of your own eyes[7] - you shall believe it, but that belief is going to do you no good because - on that Day, you shall be questioned about the blessings (faculties and resources that you were given in the worldly life - as to how you used them?)[8]

102:[1-8]

The cause of man's destruction is mutual rivalry for worldly gains.


Real success is in working for the life hereafter

Major Issues, Divine Law and Guidance:

* The cause of man's destruction is mutual rivalry for worldly gains, and real success is in working for the life Hereafter.
 

In this Sürah the people are warned about the evil consequences of worldly worship because they spend their lives in acquiring more and more of worldly wealth, material benefits and pleasures, position and power. This rivalry with one another, bragging and boasting about their acquisitions is not going to end until death. This pursuit has so occupied the people that they are left with no time or opportunity for pursuing the spiritual and higher things in life. After warning the people of its evil, they are told: "These blessings which you are amassing and enjoying thoughtlessly, are not mere blessings but are also a means of your trial. For each one of these blessings and comforts, you will surely be called to account on the Day of Judgement."
