The Basics of The Discourse “Justice for Everybody”in The Quran

Year 2014, Volume: 4 Issue: 2, 117 - 138, 05.07.2015
https://doi.org/10.20493/bt.90442

Abstract

The aim of this study, which will contribute the discussions
of worldpeace in an humble way, is to evaluate the Quranic verses
that we consider related to justice for everybody, taking into account
classical and modern approaches, especially the ones in Quran exegesis
literature. In this paper, various questions related to this matter will
be discussed: What is the content of justice? What does the Quran
mean when it says “judge among men in truth (and justice)”? Is
there any ambivalent attitude in implementing justice related to
close relatives? What does the Quran advise Muslims about the
justice demands of non-Muslims? Is it a problem if the persecuted
ones are Muslims or not? Does the Quran impose its own law upon
the ones who want to practice their own (canonical) law? Does the
Quran present all non-Muslims as a single category, or distinguish
between non-Muslims who fight against Muslims and those who
do not? Does hatred against a community legalize unjust behavior
against that community?
