IT HAS BEEN IMPOSED UPON THE BELIEVERS
He Who has imposed the Qur'an upon you will most certainly
bring you back home again. Say: 'My Lord knows best who has
brought true guidance and who is plainly misguided. (Qur'an,
28:85)
IT COMMANDS JUDGEMENT WITH JUSTICE
Allah has favoured some of you over others in provision, but those
who have been favoured do not give their provision to their slaves
so they become the same in respect of it. So why do they renounce
the blessings of Allah? (Qur'an, 16:71)
They will ask you what they should give away. Say, 'Any wealth
you give away should go to your parents and relatives and to
orphans and the very poor and travellers.' Whatever good you
do, Allah knows it. (Qur'an, 2:215)
You who believe! Give away some of the good things you have
earned and some of what the earth produces for you. Do not have
recourse to bad things when you give, things you would only take
with your eyes tight shut! Know that Allah is Rich Beyond Need,
Praiseworthy. (Qur'an, 2:267)
(Charity;) It is for the poor who are held back in the Way of Allah,
unable to travel in the land. The ignorant consider them rich
because of their reticence. You will know them by their mark. They
do not ask from people insistently. Whatever good you give away,
Allah knows it. (Qur'an, 2:273)
If someone (indebted) is in difficult circumstances, there should
be a deferral until things are easier. But making a free gift of it
would be better for you if you only knew. (Qur'an, 2:280)
He has made an example for you from among yourselves. Are any
of the slaves you own partners with you in what We have provided
for you so that you are equal in respect of it, you fearing them the
same as one another? In that way We make Our Signs clear for
people who use their intellect. (Qur'an, 30:28)
