Greed For long life

 

Desire of long life (L-124)

 95. وَلَن يَتَمَنَّوْهُ أَبَدًۢا بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ أَيْدِيهِمْ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌۢ بِٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ

وَلَتَجِدَنَّهُمْ أَحْرَصَ ٱلنَّاسِ عَلَىٰ حَيَوٰةٍ وَمِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَشْرَكُوا۟ ۚ يَوَدُّ أَحَدُهُمْ لَوْ يُعَمَّرُ أَلْفَ سَنَةٍ وَمَا هُوَ بِمُزَحْزِحِهِۦ مِنَ ٱلْعَذَابِ أَن يُعَمَّرَ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ بَصِيرٌۢ بِمَا يَعْمَلُونَ96. 

95.   Wa lany-yata-mannaw-hu   ‘abadam- bimaa qaddamat ‘aydiihim. Wallaahu   ‘Aliimum-biz-zaalimiin.                     

96.   Wa la-tajidan-nahum  ‘ah-rasan-naasi ‘alaa hayaah. Wa minal-laziina ‘ashrakuu yawad-du ‘ahaduhum law yu-‘ammaru ‘alfa sanah. Wa maa huwa bi-muzah-zihihii minal-‘azaabi ‘any-yu-‘ammar.   Wallaahu Basiirum- bimaa ya’-maluun. (Section 11)

95.   But they will never long for it, because of that which their own hands have sent before them. And Allah is Aware of evildoers.

96.    And you will find them greediest of mankind for life and (greedier) than the idolaters. (Each) one of them would like to   be allowed to live a thousand years. And to live (a thousand years) would by no means remove him from the doom. And Allah is Seer of what they do.

In these verses, Allaah Almighty has explained about the reality of the Children of Israel. It means that as they claim that they are the only Heirs of the Paradise, so they are being commanded to show the long for death. But they will never be prepared to accept it. They don’t want to intend to leave the luxuries of this world entirely and to confront the world Hereafter. There is only one reason for it that they haven’t faith in the purity of their claim. They just tell a lie. They know very well about the evil-doings and immoralities, which they have committed in this world, they shall have to face the punishment for their sins. So they wish that they should enjoy the life as long as possible, so that they may receive luxuries of this world with pleasure for maximum period and be saved from the torment of the Doomsday.

Everybody from them desires to remain in this world for thousands of the years, so that he may get more worldly benefits and escape from punishment. But God Almighty warns them that whether they get more life, they can’t save themselves from the wrath of Allaah Almighty because He knows their every deed.
