OloveInHisNameO: They have replaced the Spirit with someone who offered them flesh desires. God offered us Life in the Spirit, those who
replaced that offering with flesh desires will find out that they will become only dust. Without the Spirit there is no life, flesh desires is a promise
of the grave.

RKC: If you bothered to read the Qur'an, you would know what Muhammad(p) taught about the pleasures of this world.

Surah 2
200. So when ye have accomplished your holy rites, celebrate the praises of Allah, as ye used to celebrate the praises of your fathers,- yea, with far more Heart and
soul. There are men who say: "Our Lord! Give us (Thy bounties) in this world!" but they will have no portion in the Hereafter.

Surah 2
212. The life of this world is alluring to those who reject faith, and they scoff at those who believe. But the righteous will be above them on the Day of
Resurrection; for Allah bestows His abundance without measure on whom He will.

Surah 3
14. Fair in the eyes of men is the love of things they covet: Women and sons; Heaped-up hoards of gold and silver; horses branded (for blood and excellence); and
(wealth of) cattle and well-tilled land. Such are the possessions of this world's life; but in nearness to Allah is the best of the goals (To return to).

Surah 6
32. What is the life of this world but play and amusement? But best is the home in the hereafter, for those who are righteous. Will ye not then understand?

Surah 11
15. Those who desire the life of the present and its glitter,- to them we shall pay (the price of) their deeds therein,- without diminution.

Surah 18
46. Wealth and sons are allurements of the life of this world: But the things that endure, good deeds, are best in the sight of thy Lord, as rewards, and best as (the
foundation for) hopes.

Surah 28
60. The (material) things which ye are given are but the conveniences of this life and the glitter thereof; but that which is with Allah is better and more enduring:
will ye not then be wise?

Surah 29
64. What is the life of this world but amusement and play? but verily the Home in the Hereafter,- that is life indeed, if they but knew.

Surah 53
29. Therefore shun those who turn away from Our Message and desire nothing but the life of this world.
