12and drowned every part of those lands in corruption.
Explanatory translation
12Regarding every kind of immorality as legitimate, they divided people, whom Allah created equal, into classes and made some of them the slaves of others; and so they spread much corruption and oppression there. Truly, the corrupters of our own day learn nothing from the past either. Do those who do injustice, who divide people into classes, and who steal people’s rights not know what We did to those like them in the past?
