﴿ قَالَا رَبَّنَآ إِنَّنَا نَخَافُ أَن يَفْرُطَ عَلَيْنَآ أَوْ أَن يَطْغَىٰ ﴾

“The two [brothers] said: "O our Sustainer! Verily, we fear lest he act hastily with regard to us, or lest he [continue to] transgress all bounds of equity."”

The two of them said ‘Our Lord We truly fear that he may forestall us that is by hastening to punish us or become tyrannical’ against us that is be high-handed with us.
