Qur'an 63:9 Al-Munafiqun

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تُلْهِكُمْ أَمْوَٰلُكُمْ وَلَآ أَوْلَٰدُكُمْ عَن ذِكْرِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ وَمَن يَفْعَلْ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْخَٰسِرُونَ

O you who have believed, let not your wealth and your children divert you from remembrance of Allah. And whoever does that - then those are the losers.

Saheeh International

What it says

The address shifts from the hypocrites to the believers, and the danger named is distraction rather than disbelief. Wealth and children are not called wrong in themselves; the fault is letting either pull attention away from remembering Allah. The verse ends on a plain label, loss, without describing what is lost or how.
