JUSTICE AND COMPASSION IN THE QUR'AN

A model in which such justice and understanding prevails
is what is most desired in our world today. The only way to
attain such a society is to live by the values of the Qur'an. As
the examples above confirm, the leaders who adopted the
Qur'anic injunctions and the societies they led attained great
prosperity. Since the values of the Qur'an were adopted by
everyone, from all walks of society, justice, compassion, , love,
mercy and honesty pervaded the whole of society and
brought peace and harmony to social life.
There is no reason why such a society cannot be
established again. The only prerequisite for such a society is a
sincere intention to live by the values of the Qur'an and to
make serious efforts to spread these values to the whole of
society.
