فَلَا تُعْجِبْكَ أَمْوَٰلُهُمْ وَلَآ أَوْلَـٰدُهُمْ ۚ إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ ٱللَّهُ لِيُعَذِّبَهُم بِهَا فِى ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَتَزْهَقَ أَنفُسُهُمْ وَهُمْ كَـٰفِرُونَ

So let not their wealth or their children impress you. Allāh only intends to punish them through them in worldly life and that their souls should depart [at death] while they are disbelievers.

அவர்களுடைய செல்வங்களும், அவர்களுடைய மக்கள் (பெருக்கமும்) உம்மை ஆச்சரியப்படுத்த வேண்டாம்; அல்லாஹ் அவற்றைக் கொண்டு இவ்வுலக வாழ்க்கையிலேயே அவர்களை வேதனை செய்யவும், அவர்கள் காஃபிர்களாக இருக்கிற நிலையில் அவர்களுடைய உயிர்கள் பிரிவதையும் நாடுகிறான்.

එබැවින් ඔවුන්ගේ වස්තුව හා ඔවුන්ගේ දරුවන් නුඹව මවිතයට පත් නො කළ යුතු ය. අල්ලාහ් අපේක්ෂා කරනුයේ මෙලොව ජීවිතයේ දී ඒවා මඟින් ඔවුනට දඬුවම් කිරීමට හා ඔවුන් ප්‍රතික්ෂේප කරන්නන්ව සිටියදී ඔවුන්ගේ ජීවිත බැහැර වී යාමට ය.
UrduMaulana Muhammad Junagarhi
پس آپ کو ان کے مال واوﻻد تعجب میں نہ ڈال دیں ۔ اللہ کی چاہت یہی ہے کہ اس سے انہیں دنیا کی زندگی میں ہی سزا دے اور ان کے کفر ہی کی حالت میں ان کی جانیں نکل جائیں۔
JapaneseRyoichi Mita
だからあなたがたは,かれらの財産や子女に心を奪われてはならない。アッラーは,これらによって現世の生活の中に,かれらを懲罰しようとおぼしめし,またかれらの魂が不信心の中に離れ去ることを望まれるためである。
ChineseMa Jian
他们的财产和子嗣,不要使你赞叹,真主只要在今世生活中借此惩治他们,而他们的灵魂将在不信道的情况下离去。

Tafsir of 9:55

فَلاَ تُعْجِبْكَ أَمْوَلُهُمْ وَلاَ أَوْلَدُهُمْ (So let not their wealth nor their children amaze you...) In similar Ayat, Allah said, وَلاَ تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ إِلَى مَا مَتَّعْنَا بِهِ أَزْوَجاً مِّنْهُمْ زَهْرَةَ الْحَيَوةِ الدُّنْيَا لِنَفْتِنَهُمْ فِيهِ وَرِزْقُ رَبِّكَ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَى (And strain not your eyes in longing for the things We have given for enjoyment to various groups of them, the splendor of the life of this world, that We may test them thereby. But the provision (good reward in the Hereafter) of your Lord is better and more lasting) 20:131, and, أَيَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّمَا نُمِدُّهُمْ بِهِ مِن مَّالٍ وَبَنِينَ - نُسَارِعُ لَهُمْ فِى الْخَيْرَتِ بَل لاَّ يَشْعُرُونَ (Do they think that in wealth and children with which We enlarge them. We hasten unto them with good things. Nay, but they perceive not.) 23:55-56. Allah said next, إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيُعَذِّبَهُمْ بِهَا فِي الْحَيَوةِ الدُّنْيَا (in reality Allah's plan is to punish them with these things in the life of this world,) by taking the Zakah due on their money from them and spending it in Allah's cause, according to the meaning given by Al-Hasan Al-Basri.…
