وَإِذَا
تَوَلَّى
سَعَى
فِي
الْأَرْضِ
لِيُفْسِدَ
فِيهَا
وَيُهْلِكَ
الْحَرْثَ
وَالنَّسْلَ
وَاللَّهُ
لَا
يُحِبُّ
الْفَسَادَ
wa-ʾidhā tawallā saʿā fī l-ʾarḍi li-yufsida fīhā wa-yuhlika l-ḥartha wa-n-nasla wa-llāhu lā yuḥibbu l-fasāda
When he turns his back, His aim everywhere is to spread mischief through the earth and destroy crops and cattle. But Allah loveth not mischief.
— Abdullah Yusufali
If he were to wield authority, he would try to cause corruption in the land and to ruin the crop and the stock, and Allah does not like corruption.
