مَا عِنْدَكُمْ يَنْفَدُ وَمَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ بَاقٍ
“What you have will pass away, but what is with Allah remains.” (Al-Nahl 16:96)
An object’s true value is not determined only by its continuing physical presence. Food given to a person in need will be consumed, but the righteous act of giving it may carry enduring reward with Allah.
يَنْفَدُ means “passes away or is exhausted”; بَاقٍ means “remaining.” The verse illuminates the contrast expressed in Account 7.
