The Holy Quran 42:20 — Surah Ash-Shuraa

Arabic text

مَن كَانَ يُرِيدُ حَرْثَ ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ نَزِدْ لَهُۥ فِى حَرْثِهِۦ ۖ وَمَن كَانَ يُرِيدُ حَرْثَ ٱلدُّنْيَا نُؤْتِهِۦ مِنْهَا وَمَا لَهُۥ فِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ مِن نَّصِيبٍ

Translation

Whoever desires the harvest (rewards) of the Aakhirah, We shall increase its harvest for him. (On the contrary,) We shall grant (only) a part of this world's harvest (luxuries) to the one who desires it (without him receiving all he desires) and he will have no share (of good) in the Aakhirah (because he had no Imaan).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The reward of a good deed from ten to seven hundred times: for one good deed We give a tenfold reward, indeed seven-hundredfold, and even more than that. And the plenty and blessing granted in this world by virtue of faith and righteous deeds is something besides.
