Quran 26:152 Tafsir Al-Jalalayn
who cause corruption in the earth through acts of disobedience and act righteously’ by being obedient to God.
Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
They create discord on earth and mischief is natural to them and never do they attempt reform or change for the better
Quran 26:152 Tafsir Ibn Kathir
A Reminder to Them of their Circumstances and the Blessings
They enjoyed Salih preached to them, warning them that the punishment of Allah could overtake them and reminding them of the blessings that Allah had bestowed upon them, by giving them ample provision and making them safe from all kinds of dangers, giving them gardens and flowing springs, and bringing forth for them crops and fruits.
وَنَخْلٍ طَلْعُهَا هَضِيمٌ
( and date palms with soft clusters. ) Al-`Awfi narrated from Ibn `Abbas, "Ripe and rich." `Ali bin Abi Talhah narrated from Ibn `Abbas that this meant growing luxuriantly.
Isma`il bin Abi Khalid narrated from `Amr bin Abi `Amr -- who met the Companions -- from Ibn `Abbas that this means, "When it becomes ripe and soft." This was narrated by Ibn Abi Hatim, then he said: "And something similar was narrated from Abu Salih."
وَتَنْحِتُونَ مِنَ الْجِبَالِ بُيُوتاً فَـرِهِينَ
( And you hew out in the mountains, houses with great skill. ) Ibn `Abbas and others said, "With great skill." According to another report from him: "They were greedy and extravagant." This was the view of Mujahid and another group.
There is no contradiction between the two views, because they built the houses which they carved in the mountains as a form of extravagant play, with no need for them as dwelling places.
They were highly skilled in the arts of masonry and stone-carving, as is well known to anyone who has seen their structures.
So, Salih said to them:
فَاتَّقُواْ اللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ
( So, have Taqwa of Allah, and obey me. ) Pay attention to that which could benefit you in this world and the Hereafter; worshipping your Lord Who created you, who granted you provisions so that you could worship Him alone and glorify Him morning and evening.
وَلاَ تُطِيعُواْ أَمْرَ الْمُسْرِفِينَ - الَّذِينَ يُفْسِدُونَ فِى الاٌّرْضِ وَلاَ يُصْلِحُونَ
( And follow not the command of the extravagant, who make mischief in the land, and reform not. ) meaning, their chiefs and leaders, who called them to Shirk, disbelief and opposition to the truth.
قَالُواْ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مِنَ الْمُسَحَّرِينَ - مَآ أَنتَ إِلاَّ بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُنَا فَأْتِ بِـَايَةٍ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ الصَّـدِقِينَ - قَالَ هَـذِهِ نَاقَةٌ لَّهَا شِرْبٌ وَلَكُمْ شِرْبُ يَوْمٍ مَّعْلُومٍ - وَلاَ تَمَسُّوهَا بِسُوءٍ فَيَأْخُذَكُمْ عَذَابُ يَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ - فَعَقَرُوهَا فَأَصْبَحُواْ نَـدِمِينَ - فَأَخَذَهُمُ الْعَذَابُ إِنَّ فِى ذَلِكَ لأَيَةً وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(26:152) who spread mischief in the land and reform nothing." *100
Who cause corruption in the land and meaning
*100) That is, " You should give up obedience to your chiefs, guides and rulers under whose leadership you are following an evil way of life.
These people have transgressed all bounds of morality: they cannot bring about any reforms and they will corrupt every system of life that they adopt: The only way for you towards success and well-being is that you should inculcate fear of God, give up obedience to the misguides and obey me, because I am God's Messenger: you are fully aware of my honesty and integrity: I have no personal interest and motive for undertaking the work of reform.
" This was in short the manifesto which Prophet Salih presented before his people: it not only contained the religious message but invitation to cultural, moral and political revolution as well.

Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs
( Who spread corruption in the earth ) through disbelief, idolatry and calling to the worship of other than Allah, ( and reform not ) they do not command righteousness.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
"Who make mischief in the land, and reform not."
We try our best to translate, keeping in mind the Italian saying: "Traduttore, traditore", which means: "Translation is a betrayal of the original text".
