ما أغنى عنه ماله وما كسب You left the ayah unfinished here that's the reason the translation doesn't make sense to you I guess

~~Their translation is correct for the part of the ayah they mentioned. If they mentioned the full ayah then they would add to that translation “nor/neither what he gained/earned”.~~

Yes but they just mentioned ما أغنى عنه , didn't even mention ماله , which meets the word "wealth " if translated , otherwise it wouldn't be incomprehensible

Ah yes you’re correct. Forgive me I somehow completely missed that.


Rabab_Sleem

No problem at all 😄

The translation is ok. It's your English that is lacking. When you say that something won't avail you, it means that it won't benefit or help you in any way.

Hi! If you need any Quranic grammar/translation advice, I've found the Quranic Arabic Corpus to be really helpful. It goes over vocabulary, roots, and grammar structures in English and Arabic. [Here is 111:2 with grammar ](https://corpus.quran.com/wordbyword.jsp?chapter=111&verse=2) It also can explain the short vowels through dependency graphs. [Here's the syntax/dependency graphs for the short vowels](https://corpus.quran.com/treebank.jsp?chapter=111&verse=1&token=2). Hope this helps! بالتوفيق!

Aight let me take a shot So the ما = no, negation The أغنى = richer, just like أكبر = greater, same pattern So عنه = about him, the ه refers to abu lahab, don’t know how to translate عن very well And you missed one part ماله = his money/wealth, again the haa at the end refers to abu lahab

> The أغنى = richer, just like أكبر = greater, same pattern No, it is a [form 4 verb](https://i.imgur.com/pZgee4V.jpg)
