At-Takathur 102:3–5
You will know
كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ ٣ ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ ٤ كَلَّا لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عِلْمَ ٱلْيَقِينِ ٥
The meaning, simply
That should not have distracted you! You will know that the Hereafter is better for you, then you will know how bad it was to be distracted from it. If you truly knew, competing for more would not distract you.
