Al-A'raf 7:56 ولا تفسدوا في الارض بعد اصلاحها وادعوه خوفا وطمعا ان رحمت الله قريب من المحسنين ٥٦
وَلَا
تُفۡسِدُواْ
فِي
ٱلۡأَرۡضِ
بَعۡدَ
إِصۡلَٰحِهَا
وَٱدۡعُوهُ
خَوۡفٗا
وَطَمَعًاۚ
إِنَّ
رَحۡمَتَ
ٱللَّهِ
قَرِيبٞ
مِّنَ
ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran
And cause not corruption upon the earth after its reformation. And invoke Him in fear and aspiration. Indeed, the mercy of Allāh is near to the doers of good.
