![]() ![]() “Surely Allah enjoins the doing of justice and the doing of good (to others)…” ( 16:90) We present three verses by way of example: The Almighty Allah in numerous verses of Quran has ordered justice and equity and He has prohibited injustice and cruelty. ![]() ![]() We can use two reasonings to prove justice of Allah and to negate that He is unjust: The First Proof Is Quran Justice implies fulfillment of the rights of all those who have a right.Įvery person, according to his creation, has some special rights and others are duty-bound to honor them like the right to work and possession of the fruits of their labor, right of security and freedom, life and right of education, right to marry and reproduce and tens of other rights just as one who respects the right of others in his society and he does not trespass on them. Justice is placing everything in its appropriate place. The best definition is that which is derived from the words of Nahjul Balagha: Imam Ali (a.s.) has mentioned justice to be superior to generosity and he says: Justice has many definitions, but this is not the time to mention them or to do any research on this topic. Everyone likes justice and praises one who is just they consider injustice as evil and condemn the unjust. There is no doubt in the goodness of justice and evil of injustice. “Surely Allah does not do injustice to the weight of an atom, and if it is a good deed He multiplies it and gives from Himself a great reward.” ( 4:40) “And the word of your Lord has been accomplished truly and justly there is none who can change His words, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.” ( 6:115) “Allah bears witness that there is no god but He, and (so do) the angels and those possessed of knowledge, maintaining His creation with justice there is no god but He, the Mighty, the Wise.” ( 3:18) In the Holy Quran, the quality of justice is proved for Almighty Allah and injustice is negated about Him. Divine justice is an Islamic belief and it is ascribed to by all Muslims in general, although there is difference of opinion in its interpretation between scholastic theologians and they are divided into two groups: Mutazali and Ashari or Adliya and Ghair Adliya. Divine Justice is a positive attribute and one of actions implying that all acts of God are performed in accordance with justice and His holy being is pure of injustice. ![]()
