quran:29:64 –

And this worldly life is not but diversion and amusement. And indeed, the home of the Hereafter - that is the ˹eternal˺ life, if only they knew.  

And the life of this world is nothing but diversion and play, whereas closeness ˹to God˺ pertains to concern for the Hereafter, since the fruits thereof will be revealed in it. But surely the Abode of the Hereafter is indeed the ˹true˺ Life, if they only knew, this, ˹then˺ they would not prefer this world to it.
القرآن:٢٩:٦٤ –

وَمَا هَٰذِهِ الْحَيَاةُ الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا لَهْوٌ وَلَعِبٌ ۚ وَإِنَّ الدَّارَ الْآخِرَةَ لَهِيَ الْحَيَوَانُ ۚ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ  

{وما هذه الحياة الدنيا إلا لهوٌ ولعب} وأما القرَب فمن أمور الآخرة لظهور ثمرتها فيها {وإن الدار الآخرة لهي الحيوان} بمعنى الحياة {لو كانوا يعلمون} ذلك ما آثروا الدنيا عليها.
