وَ ذَرِ الَّذِیْنَ اتَّخَذُوْا دِیْنَهُمْ لَعِبًا وَّ لَهْوًا وَّ غَرَّتْهُمُ الْحَیٰوةُ الدُّنْیَا وَ ذَكِّرْ بِهٖۤ اَنْ تُبْسَلَ نَفْسٌۢ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ ﳓ لَیْسَ لَهَا مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ وَلِیٌّ وَّ لَا شَفِیْعٌۚ-وَ اِنْ تَعْدِلْ كُلَّ عَدْلٍ لَّا یُؤْخَذْ مِنْهَاؕ-اُولٰٓىٕكَ الَّذِیْنَ اُبْسِلُوْا بِمَا كَسَبُوْاۚ-لَهُمْ شَرَابٌ مِّنْ حَمِیْمٍ وَّ عَذَابٌ اَلِیْمٌۢ بِمَا كَانُوْا یَكْفُرُوْنَ(70)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

And renounce those who made their religion play and amusement, and are deceived by the life of this world.[1] And advise with it (the Quran) lest a life be ruined due to its deeds. There shall be no helper nor intercessor for it other than Allah; and if it offers every ransom, it will not be taken from it. These very people were ruined because of their actions. For them, there is the drink of boiling water and painful punishment due to their disbelief.

Commentary

[1]

“The deceit of worldly life” refers to love of this material world overwhelming the heart causing one to become heedless of the Hereafter. Although the disbelievers are generally victims to this deceit, many Muslims also seem to have fallen prey to the lures of this world. May Allah Almighty grant them guidance and the ability to strive for success of the Hereafter.
