وَ لِكُلٍّ وِّجْهَةٌ هُوَ مُوَلِّیْهَا فَاسْتَبِقُوا الْخَیْرٰتِﳳ-اَیْنَ مَا تَكُوْنُوْا یَاْتِ بِكُمُ اللّٰهُ جَمِیْعًاؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدِیْرٌ(148)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

For every individual, there is a direction ˹of inclination˺ which he faces, so excel in acts of piety.[1] Allah will gather all of you wherever you may be. Indeed, Allah has power over everything.

Commentary

[1]

Here, it is alluded that people should not compete with one another in matters of wealth, rank, fame, and social acceptance, as these are transient matters while piety, worship, and righteousness are lasting matters and worthy of our efforts.
