﴿ ترجمة: ظهر الفساد في البر والبحر بما كسبت أيدي الناس ليذيقهم بعض الذي ﴾
Evil (sins and disobedience of Allah, etc.) has appeared on land and sea because of what the hands of men have earned (by oppression and evil deeds, etc.), that Allah may make them taste a part of that which they have done, in order that they may return (by repenting to Allah, and begging His Pardon).
