My Wealth Did Not Help

مَآ أَغۡنَىٰ عَنِّي مَالِيَهۡۜ ۝٢٨

My wealth hath not availed me.

Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall

Meaning

“My wealth has not availed me.”

Insight

According to Elmalılı, this means: “What use was my wealth? None; if it helped, it helped others, and left me only regret and punishment.”

Reflect

Set aside a share of your wealth for the Hereafter today.
