مَّن كَانَ يُرِيدُ ثَوَابَ ٱلدُّنْيَا فَعِندَ ٱللَّهِ ثَوَابُ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ ۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ سَمِيعًۢا بَصِيرًا
man kaana yureedu sawaabad dunyaa fa'indallaahi sawaabud dunyaa wal Aakhirah; wa kaanal laahu Samee'am Baseeraa
Barang siapa yang menghendaki pahala di dunia saja (maka ia merugi), karena di sisi Allah ada pahala dunia dan akhirat. Dan Allah Maha Mendengar lagi Maha Melihat.
Whoever desires the reward of this world — with God is the reward of this world and the next. And God is ever hearing, ever seeing.
The verse leaves the wanting in place and corrects only its scale: the one being asked can give both worlds, so asking for a single one of them settles for too little. Closing on hearing and seeing sets up what comes straight after, a command to stand as witnesses even against yourself, where twisted testimony is the danger. The names are chosen for that seam.
