[107] These people did not only commit fraud in measure and weight, but were also well-versed in all the tricks and secrets of commercial dishonesty and deceit. They would conceal the defects of faulty goods and sell them, sell goods by lying and swearing false oaths, create such an environment that the owner of an item would be forced to sell his goods at the lowest possible price. Similarly, they would create such an environment to sell their own goods that others would be compelled to pay the highest possible price. In short, they knew every method by which the rights of others could be usurped. And this is what is called "corruption in the land" or a noble form of robbery, from which Shu‘ayb ؑ had forbidden them. And he had advised them that you are all well-off and prosperous people. Therefore, if you abandon such dishonest practices and earn your livelihood through lawful means, then lawful sustenance would be quite sufficient for your needs. So fear Allah and stop usurping the rights of others.
