Tafsir Al-Jalalayn: Taa-Haa, Ayah 131
وَلَا تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ إِلَىٰ مَا مَتَّعْنَا بِهِۦٓ أَزْوَٰجًۭا مِّنْهُمْ زَهْرَةَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا لِنَفْتِنَهُمْ فِيهِ ۚ وَرِزْقُ رَبِّكَ خَيْرٌۭ وَأَبْقَىٰ
And do not extend your eyes toward that by which We have given enjoyment to [some] categories of them, [its being but] the splendor of worldly life by which We test them. And the provision of your Lord is better and more enduring.

(And strain not your eyes) do not look out of desire (towards that which We cause some wedded pairs) men (among them) among the people of Banu Qurayzah and Banu'l-Nadir (to enjoy) wealth, (the flower of the life of the world) the adornment of this worldly life, (that We may try them thereby) that We may try them with that adornment which We have given them. (The provision of thy Lord) Paradise (is better and more lasting) than that which they have in this worldly life.
