كَٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ كَانُوٓا۟ أَشَدَّ مِنكُمْ قُوَّةً وَأَكْثَرَ أَمْوَٰلًا وَأَوْلَٰدًا فَٱسْتَمْتَعُوا۟ بِخَلَٰقِهِمْ فَٱسْتَمْتَعْتُم بِخَلَٰقِكُمْ كَمَاٱسْتَمْتَعَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكُم بِخَلَٰقِهِمْ وَخُضْتُمْ كَٱلَّذِى خَاضُوٓا۟ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ حَبِطَتْ أَعْمَٰلُهُمْ فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا وَٱلْءَاخِرَةِ وَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْخَٰسِرُونَ 69
69b. Thus they enjoyed their lot awhile, so ye have
enjoyed your lot awhile even as those before you did enjoy their lot awhile;
and ye prate even as they prated. Such are they whose works have perished in
the world and the Hereafter. And such are they who are the losers.

Commentary
It was indicated in the
previous verses that the people should learn from the circumstances of those
who have passed off from this world. In this verse, it has been described that
behavior and condition of the both (the people who are existing now and those
who have departed), is equal.
It is commanded that those
people who were before you, they enjoyed according to their wishes with that
which they had, and they did never think about the result. Now you should
behold yourselves that; what have you been doing? The things which have come in
your portion are not more than of them. They were physically stronger than you.
More property, assets and wealth of the world they possessed than you.
Having everything less than
them, you have been celebrating merriment like them, being
ignorant and intoxicated. Your character is the same as of those people. They
had forgotten God Almighty and His Omnipotence being intoxicated in their
power, strength, property and wealth. Like them, you have also been entangled
in the worldly matters and do not care for the Cause of Allah Almighty.
Then, you observed: What was
happened with them? Their strong bodies, wealth and property could not save
them from the punishment of God Almighty. Being inferior to them in all these
matters, you have also been entangled in the problems of the world like them.
Think for a moment! While even excessive worldly things could not save them,
then how can these a few things save you from the torment of God Almighty?
Certainly, all deeds, done by them, were of no avail. Neither
anything was useful for them in the world and nor on the Day of Resurrection.
If you wish to see the people; who have been entangled in loss and scarcity,
then observe them. Learn from their circumstances. Correct your character and
fear Allah Almighty.
