Page 43 - Solution, the values of the Qurʼan

Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar) 41

personal wishes precedence. Never do they consider the consequences of
their false testimony. It never occurs to them what a wrongfully convicted

innocent person goes through during lengthy imprisonment, nor what his
family suffers. They do not put themselves in the shoes of another and
imagine how life would be then…
In the Qur'an, Allah gives special consideration to this situation people
experience, and He commands us to be just no matter what the
circumstances are:
You who have faith! Show integrity for the sake of Allah, bearing witness
with justice. Do not let hatred for a people incite you into not being just. Be
just. That is closer to taqwa (piety). Fear Allah. Allah is aware of what you
do. (Surat al-Ma'ida: 8)
To avoid injustice, Allah's Messenger, the Prophet Muhammad (saas)
also said: "None of you should judge between two persons when he is angry." 2
Driven by fear, money, or greed, some people deviate from what is
right and fair. Only acquiring the values of the Qur'an will set them free.
Under any circumstances, be it under threat or duress, or in the presence
of anything of benefit to them, they never tend toward mischief, being
aware that Allah surrounds them at every moment. Believers are aware
that, in the hereafter, they will have to give account of any wrong actions
they do or evil things they say. In one verse, Allah proclaims that the
servants of the All-Merciful do not bear false witness:

Those who do not bear false witness, and who, when they pass by worthless
talk, pass by with dignity. (Surat al-Furqan: 72)
One more point concerning those who pursue their own interests
rather than observing justice deserves attention; one day the same
mischief may befall them. If this happens, injustices will certainly disturb
them greatly, and they will go in quest for a reliable witness who will not
fabricate testimony. Those who would not like to experience this should
then strive to spread the values Allah commanded and strictly adhere to
the praised moral principles of the Qur'an.
