             But if one of them attacks the other unjustly, fight the attackers until
             they revert to God’s command. If they revert, make peace between
             them with justice, and be even-handed. God loves those who are
             even-handed. (Surat al-Hujurat, 9)


             BEING METICULOUS IN TRADE, REFRAINING
             FROM MAKING ILL-GOTTEN PROFITS
             (Shu‘ayb said,) ‘My people! Give full measure and full weight with

             justice; do not diminish people’s goods; and do not go about the
             earth, corrupting it.’ (Surah Hud, 85)
             Give full measure when you measure and weigh with a level bal-

             Give full measure. Do not skimp. Weigh with a level balance. Do
             not diminish people’s goods and do not go about the earth, cor-
             rupting it. (Surat ash-Shu`ara’, 181-183)
