Tennyson (In Memoriam). Among ourselves (human beings) our mutual rights and duties arise out of Allah's Law, the
sense of Right that is implanted in us by Him. (4.1)
506 Among the most wonderful mysteries of our nature is that of sex. The unregenerate male is apt, in the pride of his
physical strength, to forget the all-important part which the female plays in his very existence, and in all the social
relationships that arise in our collective human lives. The mother that bore us must ever have our reverence. The wife,
through whom we enter parentage, must have our reverence. Sex, which governs so much of our physical life, and
has so much influence on our emotional and higher nature, deserves-not our fear, or our contempt, or our amused
indulgence, but-our reverence in the highest sense of the term. With this fitting introduction we enter on a discussion
of women, orphans, and family relationships. (4.1)
Sahih Muslim Hadith
Hadith 2104
Awf ibn Malik
Narrated by
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said prayer on the dead body, and I remembered his prayer: 'O Allah! forgive him, have
mercy upon him, give him peace and absolve him. Receive him with honour and make his grave spacious; wash him with
water, snow and hail. Cleanse him from faults as Thou wouldst cleanse a white garment from impurity. Requite him with an
abode more excellent than his, with a family better than his family, and with a mate better than his mate. Admit him to the
Garden, and protect him from the torment of the grave and the torment of the Fire." (Awf ibn Malik) said: I earnestly desired
that I were this dead body.
Al-Tirmidhi Hadith
Hadith 287 Narrated by
Mu'adh ibn J Abal
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Whenever a woman causes annoyance and torture to her husband in this world, his
mate from among the houris of Paradise says to her: May Allah ruin thee, do not cause thy husband annoyance, for he is
only thy guest, and will soon leave thee to join us in Paradise.

MEASURE:
17:35 - Give full measure when ye measure and weigh with a balance that is straight: that is the
most fitting and the most advantageous in the final determination. 2221
2221 Giving just measure and weight is not only right in itself but is ultimately to the best advantage of the person who gives
it. (17.35)
55:9 - So establish weight with justice and fall not short in the balance. 5178
5178 To be taken both literally and figuratively. A man should be honest and straight in every daily matter, such as weighing
out things which he is selling: and he should be straight, just and honest, in all the highest dealings, not only with other
people, but with himself and in his obedience to Allah's Law. Not many do either the one or the other when they have
an opportunity of deceit. Justice is the central virtue, and the avoidance of both excess and defect in conduct keeps
the human world balanced just as the heavenly world is kept balanced by mathematical order. (55.9)
83:! - Woe to those that deal in fraud 6011
6011 "Fraud" must here be taken in a widely general sense. It covers giving short measure or short weight, but it covers
much more than that. The next two verses make it clear that it is the spirit of injustice that is condemned, giving too
little and asking too much. This may be shown in commercial dealings, where a man exacts a higher standard in his
own favour than he is willing to concede as against him. In domestic or social matters an individual or group may ask
for honour, or respect, or services which he or they are not willing to give on their side in similar circumstances. It is
worse than one-sided selfishness: for it is double injustice. But it is worst of all in religion or spiritual life: with what face
can a man ask for Mercy or Love from Allah when he is unwilling to give it to his fellow-men? In one aspect this is a
statement of the Golden Rule. 'Do as you would be done by'. But it is more completely expressed. You must give in
full what it due from you, whether you expect or wish to receive full consideration from the other side or not. (83.1)
83:2- Those who when they have to receive by measure from men exact full measure.
83:3- But when they have to give by measure or weight to men give less than due.
83:4- Do they not think that they will be called to account? 6012
83:5- On a Mighty Day
83:6- A Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the Worlds?
