Surah Al-Qasas (28:60)

وَمَاۤ اُوۡتِيۡتُمۡ مِّنۡ شَىۡءٍ فَمَتَاعُ الۡحَيٰوةِ الدُّنۡيَا وَزِيۡنَـتُهَا ۚ وَمَا عِنۡدَ اللّٰهِ خَيۡرٌ وَّاَبۡقٰى ؕ اَفَلَا تَعۡقِلُوۡنَ‏ ۝

Wama ooteetum min shay-in famataAAualhayati addunya wazeenatuhawama AAinda Allahi khayrun waabqa afalataAAqiloon

And whatever thing you people have been given - it is only for the enjoyment of worldly life and its adornment. And what is with Allāh is better and more lasting; so will you not use reason?
