وَمَنْ أَرَادَ ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةَ وَسَعَىٰ لَهَا سَعْيَهَا وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ فَأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ كَانَ سَعْيُهُم مَّشْكُورًا
Wa man araadal Aakhirata wa sa'aa lahaa sa'yahaa wa huwa mu'minun fa ulaaa'ika kaana sa'yuhum mashkooraa
اور جو شخص آخرت کا خواستگار ہوا اور اس میں اتنی کوشش کرے جتنی اسے لائق ہے اور وہ مومن بھی ہو تو ایسے ہی لوگوں کی کوشش ٹھکانے لگتی ہے
But whoever desires the hereafter and strives for it with the striving it deserves, as a believer — their striving will be received with thanks.
Three conditions stack here: wanting it, working for it, and believing. The middle one is a cognate accusative, striving it its own striving, which sets the effort by the size of the thing sought. The reward is named as thanks, mashkūr, from the root behind al-Shakūr; commentators take God's thanks to mean acceptance of a small deed and repayment past its measure.
