72. Verily this world is ungrateful and stubborn, abandoning and disavowing, attracting and distracting; its condition is [constantly] changing, its calmness is shaking, its honour is disgrace, its seriousness is jest, its abundance is deficiency, its height is lowliness, its people are moving and following, reaching and departing. It is the abode of war, plunder, pillage and destruction.

72 إنَّ الدُّنيا لَهي الكَنُودُ العَنُودُ، والصَّدُودُ الجَحُودُ، والحَيُودُ المَيُودُ، حالُها اِنْتِقالٌ، وسُكُونُها زِلْزالٌ، وعِزُّها ذُلٌّ، وجِدُّها هَزْلٌ، وكَثْرَتُها قُلٌّ، وَعِلْوُها سِفْلٌ، أهْلُها على ساق وسياق، ولِحاق و فِراق، وهيَ دارُ حَرَب وَسَلَب ونَهَب وعَطَب.
