What is the concept of justice in the Qur'an that believers are commanded to have?

Q: Why is it important for believers to uphold justice even against their own interests?

Believers value the good pleasure of Allah above all else. Since worldly expediency does not bring true serenity, they remain committed to justice regardless of the personal cost or inconvenience involved.

Q: How should a believer handle feelings of anger toward others when making judgments?

Feelings of anger or malice must never influence a believer's actions. The Qur'an instructs that hatred toward a people should not prevent one from acting justly, as being fair is a requirement that is closer to true faith.

Q: What is the primary criterion for justice in the life of a believer?

The primary criterion is the good pleasure of Allah. Believers evaluate all events within the boundaries set by the Qur'an, ensuring their decisions align with what pleases their Creator.

Q: Does acting justly always bring worldly advantage?

Not necessarily. Justice may sometimes conflict with one's personal interests or the interests of relatives. However, believers recognize that the pleasure of Allah is the only source of true happiness and serenity.
