وَلَا تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ إِلَىٰ مَا مَتَّعْنَا بِهِ أَزْوَاجًا مِنْهُمْ زَهْرَةَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا لِنَفْتِنَهُمْ فِيهِ ۚ وَرِزْقُ رَبِّكَ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَىٰ
And do not extend your eyes toward that by which We have given enjoyment to [some] categories of them, [its being but] the splendor of worldly life by which We test them. And the provision of your Lord is better and more enduring.

(And strain not thine eyes…) [20:131]. Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Ibrahim al-Tha‘labi informed us> Shu‘aybibn Muhammad al-Bayhaqi> Makki ibn ‘Abdan> Abu’l-Azhar> Rawh> Musa ibn ‘Ubaydah al-Rabdhi> Yazidibn ‘Abd Allah ibn Qusayt> Abu Rafi‘, the client of the Messenger of Allah, Allah bless him and give himpeace, who reported that a guest dropped by the Messenger of Allah, Allah bless him and give him peace,and so he summoned me and asked me to go to a Jewish man who sold food. He entrusted me to tell him:“Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, Allah bless him and give him peace, has received a guest and does nothave what to offer him for food. Could you sell me such-and-such measure of ground wheat or lend mesome food which I will repay at the appearance of the moon of Rajab”. The Jew said: “I will not sell him orlend him except in exchange for a security”. I went back to the Prophet, Allah bless him and give him peace,and when I repeated what the Jew had said, he exclaimed: “By Allah, I am trustworthy in heaven as I amtrustworthy on earth. Had he sold to me or lent me, I would have paid back. Take my armour as security”.This verse was revealed to consol him about this world (And strain not thine eyes toward that which Wecause some wedded pairs among them to enjoy, the flower of the life of the world, that We may try themthereby…).
وَلاَ تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ إِلَى مَا مَتَّعْنَا بِهِ أَزْوَجاً مِّنْهُمْ زَهْرَةَ الْحَيَوةِ الدُّنْيَا لِنَفْتِنَهُمْ فِيهِ وَرِزْقُ رَبِّكَ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَى - وَأْمُرْ أَهْلَكَ بِالصَّلوةِ وَاصْطَبِرْ عَلَيْهَا لاَ نَسْأَلُكَ رِزْقاً نَّحْنُ نَرْزُقُكَ وَالْعَـقِبَةُ لِلتَّقْوَى
(131. 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 of your Lord is better and more lasting.)
(132. And enjoin Salah on your family, and be patient in offering them. We ask not of you a provision: We provide for you. And the good end is for those who have Taqwa.)
Allah, the Exalted, says to His Prophet Muhammad , "Do not look at what these people of luxury and their likes and peers have of nice comforts. For verily, it is only short-lived splendor and a feeble bounty, which We are using to test them with. And very few of My servants are truly thankful.'' Mujahid said,
أَزْوَجاً مِّنْهُمْ
(various groups of them,) "This means the wealthy people.'' This means, "Verily, We have given you (O Muhammad) better than that which We have given them.'' This is just as Allah says in another Ayah,
وَلَقَدْ ءاتَيْنَـكَ سَبْعًا مِّنَ الْمَثَانِي وَالْقُرْءَانَ الْعَظِيمَ لاَ تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ
(And indeed, We have bestowed upon you seven repeatedly recited verses, and the Grand Qur'an. Look not with your eyes ambitiously.) 15:87-88 Likewise, that which Allah has stored for His Messenger in the Hereafter is something extremely great. It is an unlimited reward that cannot be described. This is as Allah says,
وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَى
(And verily, your Lord will give you so that you shall be well-pleased.) 93:5 For this reason, Allah says,
وَرِزْقُ رَبِّكَ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَى
(But the provision of your Lord is better and more lasting. ) In the Sahih it is recorded that `Umar bin Al-Khattab entered upon the Messenger of Allah while he was in the small room in which he had separated himself from his wives after he had vowed to stay away from them. When he came in, he saw him (the Prophet ) lying down upon a sandy straw mat. There was nothing in the house except a pile of sant tree pods and some hanging equipment. `Umar's eyes filled with tears (upon seeing this), so the Messenger of Allah said to him,
«مَايُبْكِيكَ يَا عُمَرُ؟»
(What makes you cry, O Umar) He replied, "O Messenger of Allah, verily Kisra and Caesar are living in their luxurious conditions, yet you are the chosen Friend of Allah amongst His creation'' The Prophet said,
«أَوَ فِي شَكَ أَنْتَ يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ؟ أُولَئِكَ قَوْمٌ عُجِّلَتْ لَهُمْ طَيِّبَاتُهُمْ فِي حَيَاتِهِمُ الدُّنْيَا»
(Do you have doubt, O son of Al-Khattab Those people have had their good hastened for them in the life of this world.) Thus, the Prophet was the most abstinent of people concerning worldly luxuries, even though he had the ability to attain them. If he acquired anything of worldly treasures he would spend it on this and that for the servants of Allah. He would never save anything for himself for the next day. Ibn Abi Hatim reported from Abu Sa`id that the Messenger of Allah said,
«إِنَّ أَخْوَفَ مَا أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمْ مَا يَفْتَحُ اللهُ لَكُمْ مِنْ زَهْرَةِ الدُّنْيَا»
(Verily, the thing I fear most for you all is what Allah will allow you to acquire of the splendor of this world. ) They (the Companions) said, "What is the splendor of this world, O Messenger of Allah'' He said,
«بَرَكَاتُ الْأَرْض»
(The blessings of the earth.) Qatadah and As-Suddi said, "The splendor of this worldly life means the beautiful adornments of the life of this world.'' Qatadah said,
لِنَفْتِنَهُمْ فِيهِ
(that We may test them thereby.) "So that We may put them to trial.'' Concerning Allah's statement,
وَأْمُرْ أَهْلَكَ بِالصَّلوةِ وَاصْطَبِرْ عَلَيْهَا
(And enjoin the Salah on your family, and be patient in offering them.) This means to save them from the punishment of Allah by the establishment of the prayer, and you also be patient in performing it. This is as Allah says,
يأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ قُواْ أَنفُسَكُمْ وَأَهْلِيكُمْ نَاراً
(O you who believe! Ward off yourselves and your families against a Fire (Hell).) 66:6 Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that Zayd bin Aslam reported from his father that he and Yarfa' would sometimes spend the night at `Umar bin Al-Khattab's. `Umar had a certain time of night that he would get up and pray. However, sometimes he would not get up for it. Then, we would say, "He is not going to get up like he usually does.'' When he would awaken, he would make his family get up as well. He would say,
وَأْمُرْ أَهْلَكَ بِالصَّلوةِ وَاصْطَبِرْ عَلَيْهَا
(And enjoin the Salah on your family, and be patient in offering them.)'' Allah said;
لاَ نَسْأَلُكَ رِزْقاً نَّحْنُ نَرْزُقُكَ
(We ask not of you a provision: We provide for you.) This means that if you establish the prayer, your sustenance will come to you from where you did not expect. This is as Allah says,
وَمَن يَتَّقِ اللَّهَ يَجْعَل لَّهُ مَخْرَجاًوَيَرْزُقْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لاَ يَحْتَسِبُ
(And whosoever has Taqwa of Allah, He will make a way for him to get out (from every difficulty). And He will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine.) 65:2-3 Allah also says,
وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالإِنسَ إِلاَّ لِيَعْبُدُونِ
(And I (Allah) created not the Jinn and mankind except that they should worship Me (Alone).) until,
إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الرَّزَّاقُ ذُو الْقُوَّةِ الْمَتِينُ
(Verily, Allah is the All-Provider, Owner of Power, the Most Strong.) 51:56-58 Thus, Allah says,
لاَ نَسْأَلُكَ رِزْقاً نَّحْنُ نَرْزُقُكَ
(We ask not of you a provision: We provide for you.) Verily, At-Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah recorded that Abu Hurayrah said that the Messenger of Allah said,
«يَقُولُ اللهُ تَعَالى: يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ تَفَرَّغْ لِعِبَادَتِي أَمْلَأْ صَدْرَكَ غِنىً وَأَسُدَّ فَقْرَكَ، وَإِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلْ، مَلَأْتُ صَدْرَكَ شُغْلًا وَلَمْ أَسُدَّ فَقْرَك»
(Allah, the Exalted, says, "O son of Adam, perform My worship and I will fill your chest with wealth and fulfill your needs. If you do not do so, then I will fill your chest with toil and I will not fulfill your needs.'') It is also reported from Zayd bin Thabit that he heard the Messenger of Allah saying,
«مَنْ كَانَتِ الدُّنْيَا هَمَّهُ فَرَّقَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ أَمْرَهُ، وَجَعَلَ فَقْرَهُ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ، وَلَمْ يَأْتِهِ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا مَا كُتِبَ لَهُ، وَمَنْ كَانَتِ الْآخِرَةُ نِيَّتَهُ، جَمَعَ لَهُ أَمْرَهُ وَجَعَلَ غِنَاهُ فِي قَلْبِهِ، وَأَتَتْهُ الدُّنْيَا وَهِيَ رَاغِمَة»
(Whoever makes the worldly life his major concern, then Allah will scatter his situation for him (i.e. make it difficult) and his poverty will be placed between his eyes. He will not get from this world anything except that which has already been written for him. Whoever makes the Hereafter his intention, then his situation will be gathered for him (i.e. made easy) and his wealth will be placed in his heart. The worldly life will come to him anyway (in spite of his not seeking it).) Concerning Allah's statement,
وَالْعَـقِبَةُ لِلتَّقْوَى
(And the good end is for those who have Taqwa.) This means the good end in this life and in the Hereafter. In the Hereafter the good end will be Paradise for whoever feared Allah. In the Sahih it is reported that the Messenger of Allah said,

Yakni merasa kagum.
Seperti makanan dan minuman yang enak, pakaian yang indah, harta yang banyak, rumah yang besar, wanita yang cantik, dsb. Sesungguhnya semua itu bunga kehidupan dunia, di mana orang-orang yang tertipu bersenang-senang dengannya, demikian pula orang-orang zalim. Perhiasan itu akan hilang dan ditinggalkan, menyakitkan hati pencintanya dan mereka akan menyesal pada hari kiamat serta akan mereka ketahui bahwa Allah menjadikannya sebagai ujian dan cobaan agar Dia mengetahui siapa yang tergoda dan siapa yang tidak tergoda, yakni tetap baik perbuatannya. Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala berfirman, âSesungguhnya Kami telah menjadikan apa yang di bumi sebagai perhiasan baginya, agar Kami menguji mereka siapakah di antara mereka yang terbaik perbuatannya.--Dan sesungguhnya Kami benar-benar akan menjadikan (pula) apa yang di atasnya menjadi tanah rata lagi tandus.â (Terj. Al Kahfi: 7-8)
Sehingga mereka berbuat melampaui batas.
Baik yang segera (di dunia) maupun yang ditunda (di akhirat). Rezeki yang segera berupa ilmu, iman dan hakikat-hakikat amal saleh, sedangkan rezeki yang ditunda berupa kenikmatan yang kekal dan kehidupan yang sejahtera di dekat Ar Rahman (yakni Surga). Ya Allah masukkanlah kami ke surga dan jauhkanlah kami dari neraka. Ya Allah masukkanlah kami ke surga dan jauhkanlah kami dari neraka. Ya Allah masukkanlah kami ke surga dan jauhkanlah kami dari neraka.
Dari kenikmatan yang diberikan kepada mereka di dunia.
Dalam ayat ini terdapat isyarat, bahwa seorang hamba apabila melihat dirinya tergiur oleh perhiasan dunia, maka hendaknya ia ingat kenikmatan akhirat dan membandingkan keduanya.
