Allah says that those who committed these evil acts have earned the loss of this life and the Hereafter.
As for this life, they lost when they killed their children and made it difficult for themselves by prohibiting some types of their wealth, as an act of innovation that they invented on their own. As for the Hereafter, they will end up in the worst dwellings, because they used to lie about Allah and invent falsehood about Him. Allah also said,
[قÙÂلْ Ø¥ÙÂنَّ الَّذÙÂينَ يَÙÂْتَرÙÂونَ عَلَى اللَّه٠الْكَذÙÂبَ لاَ يÙÂÙÂْلÙÂØÂÙÂونَ - مَتَـعٌ ÙÂÙÂى الدّÙÂنْيَا Ø«ÙÂمَّ Ø¥ÙÂلَيْنَا مَرْجÙÂعÙÂهÙÂمْ Ø«ÙÂمَّ نÙÂذÙÂيقÙÂهÙÂم٠الْعَذَابَ الشَّدÙÂيدَ بÙÂمَا كَانÙÂواْ يَكْÙÂÙÂرÙÂونَ ]
(Say: "Verily, those who invent a lie against Allah will never be successful." (A brief) enjoyment in this world! And then unto Us will be their return, then We shall make them taste the severest torment because they used to disbelieve.) [10:69-70] Al-Hafiz Abu Bakr bin Marduwyah recorded that Ibn `Abbas commented, "If it pleases you to know how ignorant the Arabs used to be, then recite the Ayat beyond Ayah one hundred and thirty in Surat Al-An`am,
[قَدْ خَسÙÂرَ الَّذÙÂينَ قَتَلÙÂواْ أَوْلَـدَهÙÂمْ سَÙÂَهاً بÙÂغَيْر٠عÙÂلْم٠وَØÂَرَّمÙÂواْ مَا رَزَقَهÙÂم٠اللَّه٠اÙÂْتÙÂرَآءً عَلَى اللَّه٠قَدْ ضَلّÙÂواْ وَمَا كَانÙÂواْ مÙÂهْتَدÙÂينَ ]
(Indeed lost are they who have killed their children, foolishly, without knowledge, and [they] have forbidden that which Allah has provided for them, inventing a lie against Allah. They have indeed gone astray and were not guided.)'' Al-Bukhari also recorded this in the section of his Sahih on the virtues of the Quraysh.
[وَهÙÂوَ الَّذÙÂى أَنشَأَ جَنَّـت٠مَّعْرÙÂوشَـت٠وَغَيْرَ مَعْرÙÂوشَـت٠وَالنَّخْلَ وَالزَّرْعَ مÙÂخْتَلÙÂÙÂًا Ø£ÙÂكÙÂلÙÂه٠وَالزَّيْتÙÂونَ وَالرّÙÂمَّانَ مÙÂتَشَـبÙÂهاً وَغَيْرَ مÙÂتَشَـبÙÂه٠كÙÂلÙÂواْ مÙÂن ثَمَرÙÂه٠إÙÂذَآ أَثْمَرَ وَءَاتÙÂواْ ØÂَقَّه٠يَوْمَ ØÂَصَادÙÂه٠وَلاَ تÙÂسْرÙÂÙÂÙÂواْ Ø¥ÙÂنَّه٠لاَ يÙÂØÂÙÂبّ٠الْمÙÂسْرÙÂÙÂÙÂينَ - وَمÙÂنَ الأَنْعَـم٠ØÂَمÙÂولَةً وَÙÂَرْشًا كÙÂلÙÂواْ مÙÂمَّا رَزَقَكÙÂم٠اللَّه٠وَلاَ تَتَّبÙÂعÙÂواْ Ø®ÙÂØ·ÙÂوَت٠الشَّيْطَـن٠إÙÂنَّه٠لَكÙÂمْ عَدÙÂوٌّ مّÙÂبÙÂينٌ ]
(141. And it is He Who produces gardens Ma`rushat and not Ma`rushat, and date palms, and crops of different shape and taste, and olives, and pomegranates, similar, and different. Eat of their fruit when they ripen, but pay the due thereof on the day of their harvest, and waste not by extravagance. Verily, He likes not the wasteful.) (142. And of the cattle (are some) for burden and (some smaller) for Farsh. Eat of what Allah has provided for you, and follow not the footsteps of Shaytan. Surely, he is to you an open enemy.)
