Hûd
IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE DISPENSER OF GRACE[11:112]
Pursue, then, the right course, as thou hast been bidden [by God], together with all who, with thee, have turned unto Him; and let none of you behave in an overweening manner: for, verily, He sees all that you do.

* v.112 : Explaining this injunction, expressed in the second person plural, Ibn Kathīr points out that it is addressed to all believers, and that it refers to their behaviour towards everyone, be he believer or unbeliever; in this he obviously relies on the interpretation advanced by Ibn ‘Abbās (and quoted by Rāzī): “It means, ‘Be humble before God and do not behave with false pride towards anyone’.” According to some later commentators (e.g., Tabarī, Zamakhsharī, Baghawī, Rāzī), the meaning is wider, namely, “do not overstep the bounds of what God has ordained,” or “do not exceed the limits of equity.”
