The Holy Quran 88:7 — Surah Al-Ghashiyah

Arabic text

لَّا يُسْمِنُ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِن جُوعٍ

Translation

...which will neither nourish (their bodies) nor satisfy (their extreme) hunger.

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

This food will not appease hunger: that is, the purpose of eating is either simply to obtain pleasure, or to make the body plump, or to ward off hunger; from eating “dari'” none of these will be achieved.
