Page 41 - Solution, the values of the Qurʼan
P. 41
Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar) 39
You who have faith! Be upholders of justice, bearing witness for Allah
alone, even against yourselves or your parents and relatives whether they
are rich or poor, Allah is well able to look after them. Do not follow your
own desires and deviate from the truth. If you twist or turn away, Allah is
aware of what you do. (Surat an-Nisa': 135)
Allah commands justice and doing good and giving to relatives. And He
forbids indecency and doing wrong and tyranny. He warns you so that
hopefully you will pay heed. (Surat an-Nahl: 90)
In a society where people have an understanding of justice as
described in the aforementioned verse, injustice does not prevail. That is
because in an environment where the values of the Qur'an and the
Sunnah are observed, the strict exercise of justice is essential. In the
practice of this justice, one's kinship, wealth, status or other factors allow
for no exceptions. Nevertheless, current implementations of systems of
justice around the globe are rather varied. In some cases, in consideration
of someone's wealth, status and social environment, his crimes are simply
ignored or his punishment is alleviated or minimized. This is unlikely to
happen in a society where real justice prevails. Factors such as kinship,
wealth or status never become reasons to deviate from justice.
Swindling,
corruption and
theft may become
a way of life for a
person who does
not live by the
Qur'an and he
may feel no pangs
of conscience
while engaging in
wicked deeds.
