14. Beautified
for mankind is love of the joys (that come) from women and offspring; and
stored-up heaps of gold and silver, and horses branded (with their mark), and
cattle and land. That is provision of the life of the world. And Allah! With
Him is a more excellent abode.

Commentary
Zuyyina linnaasi – (beautified
for the humankind), it has been described in this verse that love, inclination
and attraction of these things is a natural matter and in itself there is no
sin. However, advantage from these things should be reaped; remaining in the
subjection of the orders of Divine and their love should be kept limited in the
lawful limits.
hubbush-shahawaati – (love
of the joys), shahawaat signifies here towards desirable and pleasant
things. In this manner it means “Wishes and desires”.
mataa-‘ul-hayyatid-dunyaa – (provision
of the life of the world), it intends that all these types of things are not
able to be amused very much. These should not be formed as purpose of life.
These are useful only in this world. The world is transitory and its all
arrangements are mortal also.
Allah Almighty has affirmed
that some worldly things have attraction from His Side naturally for the human
being. Mankind likes these things very much. But many people involve themselves
into them as much that they forget their Creator, their Lord. There is no sin
in itself to value these things. These are compulsory things for living in the
world. It is not bad to reap benefit from them but care is necessary that
inclination towards them should not be more than necessity. Because doing so
the human being will become overjoyed into them. Slowly he will consider them
purpose of life and forget his goal. He will miss the right path.
It should be borne in mind
that these things are transitory. These are useful only in the world.
Relationship with them will be cut immediately after death. Therefore, one
should arrange also for the Day of Resurrection keeping them at their correct
place. Real Abode is there (after death) and permanence is for that life.
