Wealth and children are an ornament of the life of the world. And (in
fact) the good deeds which endure are better in thy Lord’s Sight for reward,
and better in respect of hope.

Commentary
Baaqiyaatu – (the deeds which
endure), this word is plural of baaqiyatun, which has been derived from baqaa.
Baqaa means “eternity, permanence, continuance, remaining, immortality
etc.” ‘Al-baaqiyaatus-saalihaatu
means “those good deeds which are effective forever”.
‘Amalun – (hope, anticipation,
belief, confidence),
It has been caused to understand in
this verse that prosperity of the world, wealth and children, these entire
things are very attractive for human being, but after death; these will be
useless. The mankind will leave these things here and die empty-handed.
Therefore, having interest into them is useless. The Life after death will be
for always i.e. then there will be no death and nor the prosperity of that Life
will depend on the prosperity of this life. Wealth and children are an ornament
only of worldly life, but because the world is not firm, so we should not spend
our entire time and toil in acquiring worldly things.
After that, it is commanded that if
you desire the prosperity and success of that Life; then in this world; you
should do such good works which should be of lasting nature, that is to say;
the creatures of Allah Almighty may reap advantage from them always, for
instance; causing to know the people about the Instructions mentioned in Holy Qur’an
after acquiring its knowledge, showing them own example by acting oneself in
accordance with those Instructions, making own children righteous and good by
educating them properly and leaving them behind oneself for other people as an example
(practically) of good works. Spending own wealth for perpetual benefits for the
sake of God Almighty, for instance; establishing religious schools and training
centers, and doing works of public good. Allah Almighty will give good rewards
of such works and good hopes can be set up upon them.
