151 Preface وَلا تُطيعوا أَمرَ المُسرِفينَYusuf Ali“And follow not the bidding of those who are extravagant,-1They are told: “All your skill is very well; but cultivate virtue and do not follow the ways of those who put forward extravagant claims for men’s powers and material resources, or who lead lives of extravagance in luxury and self-indulgence; that makes mischief: but the door to repentance is open: will you repent?”
