INJUSTICE IN ISLAM

injustice in Islam has many forms. Some of them are as follows: 1. Injustice towards Allah: this type of injustice is to associate partners with Him [shirk]. The Qur’an said, ‘Surely, Shirk is a major injustice.’ [Luqman:13] 2. Injustice to One's Self: this type occurs by doing wrong to one’s own soul by committing sins and disobeying Allah’s commands. This is injustice to the self. The Qur’an says, ‘Do not wrong yourself…’ [at-Tawbah 9] 3. Injustice to Others: Injustice to others is of many types and forms. Let us consider some of these: - The first form of injustice to others is to cause harm or injury by attacking them physically or financially by taking their money, to defame their honour and reputation by slander. In his last khutbah, the Prophet said, ‘Your polable to one another.’ - The second form is inequality among people are the rights and duties in courts. Making distinction among people due to race, language, colour is a form of injustice. The Prophet said, ‘The people before you were destroyed because they used to inflict legal punishments on the poor but forgive the rich. By Him in Whose Hand my soul is! If Fatima (the daughter of the Prophet ) did that (i.e. stole), I would cut off her hand.’ [al-Bukhari]

According to all other religions in the world GOD dislikes injustice and orders to be fair and just.
