surely qaroun was of the people of musa but he rebelled against them and we had given him of the treasures so much so that his hoards of wealth would certainly weigh down a company of men possessed of great strength. when his people said to him do not exult surely allah does not love the exultant and seek by means of what allah has given you the future abode and do not neglect your portion of this world and do good as allah has done good to you and do not seek to make mischief in the land surely allah does not love the mischiefmakers.
إن قارون كان من قوم موسى فبغى عليهم وآتيناه من الكنوز ما إن مفاتحه لتنوء بالعصبة أولي القوة إذ قال له قومه لا تفرح إن الله لا يحب الفرحين وابتغ فيما آتاك الله الدار الآخرة ولا تنس نصيبك من الدنيا وأحسن كما أحسن الله إليك ولا تبغ الفساد في الأرض إن الله لا يحب المفسدين
