280 The Glad Tidings of the Messiah (pbuh)
WORLDLY WEALTH WILL NOT BENEFIT
PEOPLE IN THE HEREAFTER
As for those who do not believe, their wealth and children
will not help them against Allah in any way. They are fuel
for the Fire. (Surah Al 'Imran, 10)
Torah
Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to save them on the
day of the Lord's wrath. (Zephaniah 1:18)
THE APPOINTED TIME
If Allah were to punish people for their wrong actions, not
a single creature would be left upon Earth, but He defers
them till a predetermined time. When their specified time
arrives, they cannot delay it for a single hour nor can they
bring it forward. (Surat an-Nahl, 61)
Your Lord is the Ever-Forgiving, the Possessor of Mercy. If
He had taken them to task for what they have earned, He
would have hastened their punishment. Instead, they
have a promised appointment and they will not find any
refuge from it. (Surat al-Kahf, 58)
