These verses forbid corruption on earth and recall that Allah loves neither corruption nor those who spread it. They affirm that establishment in the land belongs to those who set things right, invite people to look at the end of the corrupters, and expose those who think themselves reformers while they corrupt. They also speak of people checking one another to end corruption, and of corruption caused by human deeds.
Verses gathered from a topical index of the Quran, in Mushaf order; every verse is quoted in full.
And the Jews say, "The hand of Allāh is chained." Chained are their hands, and cursed are they for what they say. Rather, both His hands are extended; He spends however He wills. And that which has been revealed to you from your Lord will surely increase many of them in transgression and disbelief. And We have cast among them animosity and hatred until the Day of Resurrection. Every time they kindled the fire of war [against you], Allāh extinguished it. And they strive throughout the land [causing] corruption, and Allāh does not like corrupters.
And We conveyed to the Children of Israel in the Scripture that, "You will surely cause corruption on the earth twice, and you will surely reach [a degree of] great haughtiness."
