يُوسُف : ٧٣

  • قَالُواْ They said
  • تَٱللَّهِ By Allah
  • لَقَدۡ certainly
  • عَلِمۡتُم you know
  • مَّا not
  • جِئۡنَا we came
  • لِنُفۡسِدَ that we cause corruption
  • فِي in
  • ٱلۡأَرۡضِ the land
  • وَمَا and not
  • كُنَّا we are
  • سَٰرِقِينَ thieves
They said, "By Allāh, you have certainly known that we did not come to cause corruption in the land, and we have not been thieves."
They said, 'By God,' (ta'Llaahi is an oath, entailing astonishment) 'You know very well that we did not come to work corruption in the land, and we are certainly not thieves', that is, we have never stolen [anything].
