The query is about a part of a Quranic verse, not a , which is: "And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression" (Al-Ma'idah: 2). In it, Allah commands believers to cooperate in doing good deeds and abandoning evil, and forbids them from cooperating in falsehood and prohibitions. Sin (Ithm) is the abandonment of what Allah has commanded, and aggression (Udwan) is the transgression of Allah's limits.
