13. This means Waleed is so greedy that he would not exercise patience on the wealth and status provided for him, but is always seeking means to increase this. He wishes that despite his ingratitude, he should receive greater prosperity. This will not take place. After the revelation of this verse, his wealth and respect began to decrease. Eventually, he died in utter poverty and disgrace (Tafseer Khazainul Irfaan and Roohul Mu'ani).
