9:55
فَلَا تُعْجِبْكَ أَمْوَٰلُهُمْ وَلَآ أَوْلَـٰدُهُمْ ۚ إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ ٱللَّهُ لِيُعَذِّبَهُم بِهَا فِى ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَتَزْهَقَ أَنفُسُهُمْ وَهُمْ كَـٰفِرُونَ ٥٥
So let not their riches nor their children please thee (O Muhammad). Allah thereby intendeth but to punish them in the life of the world and that their souls shall pass away while they are disbelievers.
So let not their wealth or their children impress you. Allah only intends to punish them through them in worldly life and that their souls should depart [at death] while they are disbelievers.
Let neither their riches nor their children excite your admiration. Allah only wants to chastise them through these things in the present life, and to cause them to die while they are unbelievers.
يَقُولُ تَعَالَى لِرَسُولِهِ، صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ وَسَلَامُهُ عَلَيْهِ: ﴿فَلا تُعْجِبْكَ أَمْوَالُهُمْ وَلا أَوْلادُهُمْ﴾ كَمَا قَالَ تَعَالَى: ﴿وَلا تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ إِلَى مَا مَتَّعْنَا بِهِ أَزْوَاجًا مِنْهُمْ زَهْرَةَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا لِنَفْتِنَهُمْ فِيهِ وَرِزْقُ رَبِّكَ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَى﴾ [طه: ١٣١] وَقَالَ: ﴿أَيَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّمَا نُمِدُّهُمْ بِهِ مِنْ مَالٍ وَبَنِينَ نُسَارِعُ لَهُمْ فِي الْخَيْرَاتِ بَل لَا يَشْعُرُونَ﴾ [الْمُؤْمِنُونَ:٥٥، ٥٦]
وَقَوْلُهُ: ﴿إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيُعَذِّبَهُمْ بِهَا فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا﴾ قَالَ الْحَسَنُ الْبَصْرِيُّ: بِزَكَاتِهَا، وَالنَّفَقَةِ مِنْهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ.
وَقَالَ قَتَادَةُ: هَذَا مِنَ الْمُقَدَّمِ وَالْمُؤَخَّرِ، تَقْدِيرُهُ: فَلَا تُعْجِبْكَ أَمْوَالُهُمْ وَلَا أَوْلَادُهُمْ، [فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا] [[زيادة من ت، ك، أ.]] إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيُعَذِّبَهُمْ بِهَا [فِي الْآخِرَةِ] [[زيادة من ت، ك، أ.]]
وَاخْتَارَ ابْنُ جَرِيرٍ قَوْلَ الْحَسَنِ، وَهُوَ الْقَوْلُ القَوي الْحَسَنُ.
وَقَوْلُهُ: ﴿وَتَزْهَقَ أَنْفُسُهُمْ وَهُمْ كَافِرُونَ﴾ أَيْ: وَيُرِيدُ أَنْ يُمِيتَهُمْ حِينَ يُمِيتُهُمْ عَلَى الْكُفْرِ، لِيَكُونَ ذَلِكَ أَنَكَى لَهُمْ وَأَشَدَّ لِعَذَابِهِمْ، عِيَاذًا بِاللَّهِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ، وَهَذَا يَكُونُ مِنْ بَابِ الِاسْتِدْرَاجِ لَهُمْ فِيمَا هُمْ فِيهِ.

Summary
This Surah is known by two names -- At-Taubah and Al-Bara'at. It is called At-Taubah because it enunciates the nature of taubah (repentance) and mentions the conditions of its acceptance.(vv. 102. 118). The second name Bara'at (Release) is taken from the first word of the Surah.
