يٰۤـاَيُّهَا الَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا كُوۡنُوۡا قَوَّا امِيۡنَ لِلّٰهِ شُهَدَآءَ بِالۡقِسۡطِ​ وَلَا يَجۡرِمَنَّكُمۡ شَنَاٰنُ قَوۡمٍ عَلٰٓى اَ لَّا تَعۡدِلُوۡا​ ؕ اِعۡدِلُوۡا هُوَ اَقۡرَبُ لِلتَّقۡوٰى​ وَاتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ​ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ خَبِيۡرٌۢ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُوۡنَ‏ ۝

O you who have believed, be persistently standing firm for Allāh, witnesses in justice, and do not let the hatred of a people prevent you from being just. Be just; that is nearer to righteousness. And fear Allāh; indeed, Allāh is fully Aware of what you do.

Tadabbur (Reflection)

Theme of the Ayat

The Command of Justice: Standing firm for God as bearers of justice, even against enemies.

The Insight

Believers are commanded to stand firmly for God as witnesses of justice, and not let hatred of a people prevent righteous judgment. **Justice over emotion.** This is a critical ethical principle: your moral duty to judge and act justly must transcend personal feelings, tribal loyalty, or enmity. Justice is God's right.
