Life is established on justice
Life is established on justice
Nov 14, 2024 3:09 PM

  Justice is the balance that Allah has imposed for His creatures and established for fulfilling rights. It is one of the foundations upon which this world is established, and without it life can neither be orderly nor reformed. Justice leads to bringing people together and urges them to be obedient to Allah. It is also a cause of development and increase of wealth, growth of the young generations and prevalence of security for those in power and authority. Due to the importance of justice, it was said, “Life continues with justice and disbelief, but cannot continue with injustice and Islam.”

  Ibn Taymiyyah said, “Justice is the foundation upon which everything has been established. When matters pertaining to this life are based on justice, then it will remain on the right course, even if the person who establishes this justice does not have in the Hereafter any share. On the other hand, if this life is not based on justice, it will not be on the right course, even if the person who does not establish justice has faith that he will be rewarded for in the Hereafter.”

  He also said, “Justice is the right that every person has over another, under all circumstances; and injustice is prohibited and disallowed, under all circumstances.”

  Due to the high and sublime status of justice, we find the Sharee‘ah raising its importance and ordering people and urging them to establish justice. In this respect, Allah The Almighty Says (what means):

  · {And when you testify, be just.} [Quran 6:152]
