Verse197

(197)مَتَاعٌ قَلِيلٌ ثُمَّ مَأْوَاهُمْ جَهَنَّمُ وَبِئْسَ الْمِهَادُ

197. " (It is) a brief enjoyment! Thereafter their abode is Hell, and how bad the resting place (it is) ! "
Commentary:
Imam Amir-ul-Mu'mineen Ali (a.s.) in a tradition has said: " There is not goodness in a pleasure after which is Fire (of Hell)." (1)

The fleeting pleasures and eternal torment is for the infidels, while temporary hardships and the eternal peace and confort belongs to the believers.
" (It is) a brief enjoyment! Thereafter their abode is Hell, and how bad the resting place (it is) ! "
