3:117

مَثَلُ مَا یُنْفِقُونَ فٖی هٰذِهِ الْحَیٰوةِ الدُّنْیَا كَمَثَلِ رٖیحٍ فٖیهَا صِرٌّ اَصَابَتْ حَرْثَ قَوْمٍ ظَلَمُٓوا اَنْفُسَهُمْ فَاَهْلَكَتْهُؕ وَمَا ظَلَمَهُمُ اللّٰهُ وَلٰكِنْ اَنْفُسَهُمْ یَظْلِمُونَ

Mathalu ma yunfiqoona fee hathihi alhayati alddunya kamathali reehin feeha sirrun asabat hartha qawmin thalamoo anfusahum faahlakathu wama thalamahumu Allahu walakin anfusahum yathlimoona

Translations

The example of what they spend in this worldly life is like that of a wind containing frost which strikes the harvest of a people who have wronged themselves and destroys it. And Allah has not wronged them, but they wrong themselves

Saheeh International

The likeness of that which they spend in this life of the world is as the likeness of a biting, icy wind which smiteth the harvest of a people who have wronged themselves, and devastateth it. Allah wronged them not, but they do wrong themselves
