Justice is <strong>the</strong> fundamental <strong>of</strong> truth, on which heaven and earth are founded, or even <strong>all</strong>creation and <strong>all</strong> we see <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> existence <strong>of</strong> consistency, harmony and life is only because <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> organization and balance <strong>in</strong>suitable range and justice made by Allah.So <strong>in</strong> <strong>all</strong> human civilizations justice is considered <strong>the</strong> measure for <strong>the</strong>ir survival or death, and <strong>the</strong>ir ladder convey<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>m topersistence, progress, development and prosperity.S<strong>in</strong>ce <strong>all</strong> humanity agree on <strong>the</strong> necessity <strong>of</strong> spread<strong>in</strong>g justice between people, Islam gave it special priority; <strong>in</strong> fact, <strong>the</strong> ma<strong>in</strong>purpose <strong>of</strong> Islamic law is <strong>the</strong> establishment <strong>of</strong> justice <strong>in</strong> <strong>all</strong> life aspects, <strong>the</strong> Holy Qur’an which <strong>in</strong> fact <strong>the</strong> constitution <strong>of</strong>Islam, <strong>in</strong>cluded a lot <strong>of</strong> texts c<strong>all</strong><strong>in</strong>g and command<strong>in</strong>g for justice and deny<strong>in</strong>g and forbidd<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>justice. The holy Qur’an says:“Allah commands justice, <strong>the</strong> do<strong>in</strong>g <strong>of</strong> good”. In Islam <strong>the</strong> concept <strong>of</strong> justice is more comprehensive than mere judgmentbetween people, verily justice is commanded for <strong>in</strong> <strong>all</strong> aspects <strong>of</strong> life both <strong>in</strong> man’s relation with his creator, or relation withhimself or his relation with o<strong>the</strong>rs.Among <strong>the</strong> terms <strong>of</strong> justice <strong>in</strong> Islam is that it forbids <strong>all</strong> forms <strong>of</strong> <strong>in</strong>justice, aggression, and rebellion; <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> Sunna <strong>the</strong> say<strong>in</strong>gs<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> prophet Allah never do <strong>in</strong>justice and <strong>of</strong> course He forbids us to do <strong>in</strong>justice to each o<strong>the</strong>r. Islam’s approach is that<strong>in</strong>justice is forbidden for <strong>all</strong> mank<strong>in</strong>d whatsoever <strong>the</strong>ir religion, races, classes or levelsmay be. Truth <strong>in</strong> Islam always overwhelms but never been overwhelmed. Allah says <strong>in</strong>Qur’an: “ And let not <strong>the</strong> hatred <strong>of</strong> o<strong>the</strong>rs to you make you swerve to wrong and departfrom justice. Be just: that is next to piety.” Of <strong>the</strong> features <strong>of</strong> justice <strong>in</strong> Islam and itsprotection <strong>of</strong> rights <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> human granted him by Allah is its unique respect <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> humansoul, it forbids unjust kill<strong>in</strong>g; <strong>the</strong> Holy Qur’an says: “if any one slew a person, unless it befor murder, or for spread<strong>in</strong>g mischief <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> land - it would be as if he slew <strong>the</strong> wholepeople. And if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved <strong>the</strong> life <strong>of</strong> <strong>all</strong> <strong>the</strong> people.”Hon’ble Mr Abdullah B<strong>in</strong> Mohamed Al– Yahya, Deputy M<strong>in</strong>ister <strong>of</strong> Justice,K<strong>in</strong>gdom <strong>of</strong> Saudi Arabia be<strong>in</strong>g garlandedat <strong>the</strong> airportHon’ble Mr Abdullah B<strong>in</strong> MohamedAl – Yahya, Deputy M<strong>in</strong>ister <strong>of</strong> Justice,K<strong>in</strong>gdom <strong>of</strong> Saudi Arabia address<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>ConferenceThe K<strong>in</strong>gdom <strong>of</strong> Saudi Arabia believ<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> value <strong>of</strong> justice and its immense <strong>in</strong>fluenceon human societies development and progress, and abid<strong>in</strong>g by its Islamic pr<strong>in</strong>ciples has--78--
