Believers, do not let your wealth and children divert you from remembering God. Whoever is diverted will suffer a great loss. 9 And spend of that wherewith We have provided you before death cometh unto one of you and he saith: My Lord! If only thou wouldst reprieve me for a little while, then I would give alms and be among the righteous. 10 But never does God grant a delay to a human being when his term has come; and God is fully aware of all that you do. 11
