Page 27 - Belief in Allah & His Commands

On page 27, Allah highlights that true righteousness is not merely about facing a particular direction in prayer. Still, it involves sincere belief in Allah عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ, the Last Day, the Angels, the Books, and the Prophets.

Genuine righteousness is demonstrated through acts such as giving wealth to family, orphans, the poor, and those in need, performing prayers, giving zakat, and upholding covenants with patience in times of adversity.

The law of equality in punishment (Al-Qisâs) is established, emphasising fairness and mercy. In the case of murder, the principle of life for life, slave for slave, and female for female is prescribed. However, forgiveness and payment of blood money are encouraged for reconciliation.

Furthermore, individuals are urged to reasonably make bequests to parents and kin reasonably, emphasising preserving the sanctity of the testator's wishes. The importance of making peace in cases of potential injustice is underscored, highlighting Allah's forgiveness and mercy.
