Explanatory translation

2He thinks himself powerful because of the position, rank, and wealth he possesses. But this wrongdoer, who refuses to acknowledge Allah as God, will gain no benefit at all from the wealth he relies on, from his children, or from the prestige he has acquired. Neither the social status he relies on nor his blood relationship with the Prophet will be able to save him from the punishment Allah will inflict in this world and in the Hereafter.
