[CENTER][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3]O You who believe! Show integrity for the sake of Allah, bearing[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/CENTER]

[CENTER][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]witness with justice. Do not let hatred for a people incite[/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]you into not being just. [/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/CENTER]

[CENTER][FONT=PalatinoTurkB][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB][SIZE=3]Be just. [/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3]That is closer to piety. Have[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]fear [and awareness] of Allah. Allah is aware of what you do.[/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][/CENTER]

[CENTER][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk](Surat al-Ma’ida, 5:8)[/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]Allah is the most just judge. As His order encompasses the universe,[/FONT][/SIZE]
[CENTER][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]He will show His justice to His servants both in this world[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]and beyond. All the acts of Allah, Who is All-Seeing, All-Knowing,[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]and All-Aware, are for a divine purpose and are just.[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]Allah will judge all of each person’s deeds according to His justice.[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]Allah informs us that those who engage in violence will be punished[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]and that even a single good word will be rewarded. He will[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]manifest His infinite justice in the Hereafter.[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]The difficulties that unbelievers make for Prophets and believers,[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]as well as their slanderous accusations and sins, will not remain[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]unanswered. All of these difficulties, which raise believers’ ranks in[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]Paradise, lead unbelievers to the lowest level of the Fire. On the Day[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]of Judgment, Allah will set up the Just Balance, and no soul will be[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]wronged in any way. Allah will call them to account by ending the[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]time that He has granted them. Given that Allah, the All-Knowing,[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]keeps His promise, all people will see the consequences of their[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]wrong actions in the Hereafter. Thus, unbelievers will be punished[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]severely, while those who remained true to Allah will be rewarded[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]most bountifully. In one verse, Allah states the following:[/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/CENTER]
[/CENTER]

[CENTER][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][FONT=PalatinoTurkB][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB][SIZE=3]Those who pledge their allegiance to you [the Prophet][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/FONT][/SIZE][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][FONT=PalatinoTurkB][SIZE=3][/CENTER]

[CENTER][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]pledge allegiance to Allah. Allah’s hand is over their[/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]hands. He who breaks his pledge only breaks it against[/FONT][/SIZE]
[CENTER][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]himself. But as for him who fulfils the contract he has[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]made with Allah, We will pay him an immense reward.[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB](Surat al-Fath, 48:10)[/FONT][/SIZE][/CENTER]
[/CENTER]


[/SIZE][/FONT]

[CENTER][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3]There is an important point to consider here: While pondering[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]over His justice, do not compare it with the human concept of justice,[/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]for a faithless person, while passing judgment, may well comply[/FONT][/SIZE]
[CENTER][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]with his whims and desires, remain under the influence of his[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]feelings, or forget what has been done. Most importantly, one never[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]knows what is in the other party’s mind. But Allah, Who never errs[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]or forgets, has assigned angels for every person in order to observe[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]and record each of their acts and thoughts. In brief, Allah holds each[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]person’s soul in His hand. The Qur’an also reveals that our Lord,[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]Who gives the best judgment, is infinitely just:[/FONT][/SIZE][/CENTER]
[/CENTER]

[/SIZE][/FONT]

[CENTER][FONT=PalatinoTurkB][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB][SIZE=3]On the Day We summon every people with their records,[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=PalatinoTurkB][SIZE=3]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]those who are given their Book in their right hand will read[/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]their Book and will not be wronged by even the smallest[/FONT][/SIZE]
[CENTER][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]speck. (Surat al-Isra’, 17:71)[/FONT][/SIZE][/CENTER]
[/CENTER]

[/SIZE][/FONT]

[CENTER][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3]In the Hereafter, Allah will pay back all of the wrongdoing and[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]plots hatched against believers. In this life, He may grant the unbelievers[/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]many blessings (e.g., wealth and possessions), yet these will[/FONT][/SIZE]
[CENTER][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]only lead them to more evil. In the Qur’an, Allah states that believers[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]must not be attracted to such blessings, for when compared with[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]what awaits them in the Hereafter, the benefits of this short life are[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]insignificant, especially when the infinite punishment of Hell awaits[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]unbelievers.[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]In the Hereafter, each person’s real abode, every soul will find[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]itself confronted with all of its good deeds. Allah will manifest His[/FONT][/SIZE][/SIZE][/FONT][/CENTER]

[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3]justice in Hell and Paradise for all eternity. Ultimately, Allah will[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk]separate those who believe in Him from those who do not.[/FONT][/SIZE][/SIZE][/FONT][/FONT][/SIZE][/CENTER]

[CENTER][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][FONT=PalatinoTurkB][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB][SIZE=3]Say: “Our Lord will bring us all together and then will[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=PalatinoTurkB][SIZE=3]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]judge between us with the truth. He is the Just Decider, the[/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]All-Knowing.” (Surah Saba, 34:26)[/FONT][/SIZE][/CENTER]


[/SIZE][/FONT]

[CENTER][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurk][SIZE=3]Allah commands believers to be just as follows:[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=PalatinoTurkB][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB][SIZE=3]Allah does not forbid you from being good to those who[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=PalatinoTurkB][SIZE=3]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]have not fought you in the religion or driven you from your[/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]homes, or from being just toward them. Allah loves those[/FONT][/SIZE]
[CENTER][SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]who are just. (Surat al-Mumtahana, 60:8)[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]Allah commands you to return to their owners the things[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]you hold on trust and, when you judge between people, to[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]judge with justice. How excellent is what Allah exhorts you[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]to do! Allah is All-Hearing, All-Seeing. (Surat an-Nisa’,[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]4:58)[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]They are people who listen to lies and consume ill-gotten[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]gains. If they come to you, you can either judge between[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]them or turn away from them. If you turn away from them,[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]they cannot harm you in any way. But if you do judge,[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]judge between them justly. Allah loves the just. (Surat al-[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=3][FONT=PalatinoTurkB]Ma’ida, 5:42)[/FONT][/SIZE][/CENTER]
