And when it is said to them: 'Do not make corruption on the earth,' they say: 'We are only reformers.' One of the greatest calamities and worst characteristics of hypocrites is for one of them to stand out and say: I am the reformer, and others are corrupt! Hence, combining the corruption of the heart with ill logic and spoiled belief. . {وَإِذَا قِیلَ لَهُمۡ لَا تُفۡسِدُوا۟ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ قَالُوۤا۟ إِنَّمَا نَحۡنُ مُصۡلِحُونَ} [البَقَرَةِ: 11]  من أكبر البلايا وأعظم صفات المنافقين أن يرفع أحدهم رأسه ويقول: أنا المصلح وغيري فاسد، فجمع مع فساد القلب سوء المنطق وسوء المعتقد.
