In the Qur'an, Allah commands believers to "Be upholders of justice, bearing witness for Allah alone, even against yourselves or your parents and relatives Whether they are rich or poor, Allah is well able to look after them. Do not follow your own desires and deviate from the truth..." (Surat an-Nisa' 135). With the rules: he imposed on Muslims, his just and tolerant attitude towards those of other religions, languages, races and tribes, and his way of not discriminating between rich and poor, but treating everybody equally, Allah's Messenger ( is a great example to all of mankind. Allah says this to His Prophet (S.A.A.W) in one verse They are people who listen to lies and consume ill-gotten gains. If they come to you, you can either judge between them or turn away from them. If you turn away from them, they cannot harm you in any way. But if you do judge, judge between them justly. Allah loves the just. (Surat al-Ma'ida 42) The Prophet (2) abided by Allah's commands, even with such difficult people, and never made any concessions in his implementation of justice. He became an example for all times with the words, "My Lord has commanded justice..." (Surat al-A'raf: 29) A number of incidents testify to the Prophet (2) justice He lived in a place where people of different religions, languages, races and tribes all co-existed.
It was very very difficult for those societies to live together in peace and security, and to check those who sought to spread dissension. One group could grow aggressive towards and even attack another over the slightest word or action, Yet the justice of the Prophet () was a source of peace and security for those other communities, just as much as it was for Muslims. During the time of the Prophet (S.A.A.W) , Christians, Jews and pagans were all treated equally. The Prophet ( abided by the verse "There is no compulsion where the religion is concerned..." (Surat al-Baqara 256), explaining the true religion to everyone, but leaving them free to make up their own minds In another verse, Allah revealed to the Prophet () the kind of justice and conciliation he needed to adopt towards those of other religions:So call and go straight as you have been ordered to. Do not follow their The agreement made with the Christians of Najran in the south of the Arabian Peninsula was another fine example of the justice of the Prophet ( One of the articles in the agreement reads!"The lives of the people of Najran and its surrounding area, their religion, their land, property, cattle and those of them who are present or absent, their messengers and their places of worship are under the protection of Allah and guardianship of His Prophet" (4) The Compact of Madina, signed by the Muslim immigrants from Mecca, the indigenous Muslims of Medina and the Jews of Medina is another important example of justice. As a result of this constitution, which established justice between communities with differing beliefs and ensured the protection of their various interests. long years of enmity were brought to an end. One of the most outstanding features of the treaty is the freedom of belief it established. The relevant article reads."The Jews of Banu 'Awf are one nation with the Muslims; the Jews have their religion and the Muslims have theirs.. "(5) Article 16 of the treaty reads: "The Jew who follows us is surely entitled to our support and the same equal rights as any one of us. He shall not be wronged nor his enemy be assisted." (6) The Prophet (S.A.A.W) 's companions remained true to that article in the treaty, even after his death, and even practiced it with regard to Berbers, Buddhists, Brahmans and people of other beliefs.One of the main reasons why the golden age of Islam was one of peace and security was the Prophet (y's just attitude, itself a reflection of Qur'anic morality: The justice of the Prophet (2) also awoke feelings of confidence in non- Muslims, and many, including polytheists, asked to be taken under his protection.
