613. THE BIGGEST LOSERS

(قُلْ هَلْ نُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِالْأَخْسَرِينَ أَعْمَالاً * الَّذِينَ ضَلَّ سَعْيُهُمْ فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَهُمْ يَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّهُمْ يُحْسِنُونَ صُنْعاً) .1

"Say, 'Shall we inform you about the biggest losers in regard to works? Those whose endeavour goes awry in the life of the world, while they suppose they are doing good." 2

1847.الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام : إنّ أخْسَرَ النّاسِ صَفْقَةً وأخْيَبَهُم سَعْياً: رجُلٌ أخْلَقَ بَدنَهُ في طَلبِ مالِهِ ولَم تُساعِدْهُ‏المَقاديرُ على‏ إرادَتِهِ ، فخَرجَ مِن الدُّنيا بحَسْرَتِهِ ، وقَدِمَ على‏ الآخِرَةِ بتَبِعَتِهِ .3

1847.Imam Ali (AS) said, 'Verily the biggest loser with the worst end of the deal and the most unsuccessful in his striving is the man who exerts himself in the quest for his wealth even though fate does not help him in his aims, and he consequently leaves this world with regret while heading towards the Hereafter, where he will face its ill consequences.' 4
