quran:28:76 –

Indeed, Qarun was from the people of Moses, but he tyrannized them. And We gave him of treasures whose keys would burden a band of strong men; thereupon his people said to him, "Do not exult. Indeed, Allah does not like the exultant.  

Indeed Korah belonged to the people of Moses — ˹being˺ his paternal and maternal cousin, and he had believed in him ˹in Moses˺ — but he became insolent towards them, through ˹his˺ disdain, haughtiness and great wealth.

القرآن:٢٨:٧٦ –

{إن قارون كان من قوم موسى} ابن عمه وابن خالته وآمن به {فبغى عليهم} بالكبر والعلو وكثرة المال {وآتيناه من الكنوز ما إن مفاتحه لتنوء} تثقل {بالعصبة} الجماعة {أولي} أصحاب {القوة} أي تثقلهم فالباء للتعدية وعدتهم قيل سبعون وقيل أربعون وقيل عشرة وقيل غير ذلك، اذكر {إذ قال له قومه} المؤمنون من بني إسرائيل {لا تفرح} بكثرة المال فرح بطر {إن الله لا يحب الفرحين} بذلك.
