Ibrahim • EN-TAFSIR-IBN-ABBAS
﴿ ٱلَّذِينَ يَسْتَحِبُّونَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا عَلَى ٱلْءَاخِرَةِ وَيَصُدُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَيَبْغُونَهَا عِوَجًا ۚ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ فِى ضَلَٰلٍۭ بَعِيدٍۢ ﴾
“awaits those who choose the life of this world as the sole object of their love, preferring it to [all thought of] the life to come, and who turn others away from the path of God and try to make it appear crooked. Such as these have indeed gone far astray!”
(Those who love the life of the world) those who prefer the life of this world (more than the Hereafter, and debar (men) from the way of Allah) and save people from Allah's religion and obedience (and would have it crooked) and would have it differently than it actually is: (such) the disbelievers (are far astray) from the Truth and guidance; it is also said that this means: they are in manifest error.
