Surah At-Takathur — 102:8

ثُمَّ لَتُسْـَٔلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ

Thumma latus alunna yauma-izin 'anin na'eem

Sonra o gün, size verilmiş olan her nimetten sorguya çekileceksiniz.

Then, on that day, you will be questioned about the comforts you enjoyed.

Reflection

Naʿīm covers the good things of life broadly, from the root that gives niʿma, a favour received. Commentators read its scope differently: some took it to include water, shade and health, the things a person never counts, while others limited it to what goes past need. The surah opened with the drive for more and closes by making that same accumulation the subject of a question, with the verb carrying the emphatic form Arabic uses for an oath.
