For Judgment in Dispute, Recite the Holy Qur’an

How to settle the disputes (L-559) 

فَإِن تَنَٰزَعْتُمْ فِى شَىْءٍ فَرُدُّوهُ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ وَٱلرَّسُولِ إِن كُنتُمْ تُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْءَاخِرِ ذَٰلِكَ خَيْرٌ وَأَحْسَنُ تَأْوِيلًا59b.

59b.  Fa-‘in  tanaaza’-tum  fii  shay-‘in-  fa-rudduuhu  ‘ilAllaahi  war-Rasuuli  ‘in-kuntum  tu’-minuuna  Billaahi  wal-Yawmil-‘Aakhir.  Zaalika  khayrunw-wa  ‘ahsanu  ta’-wiilaa. (Section 8/5)

59b.  And if you dispute over anything, refer it to God and the Messenger, if you believe in  God and the Last Day. That is best, and a most excellent determination.

Tanaaza’-tum  - (you have a dispute). The words nazaa’ and tanaaza-‘a have also been derived from the same origin, which means ‘to quarrel, to dispute, to argue, misunderstanding, contradiction and to oppose.

Rudduuhu  - (refer to), there are many other words from its derivation like ‘irtadaad, murtad etc. Actual aim is ‘to invert, to return towards the Law of God and the traditions of the Last Messenger (ﷺ) in case of a dispute concerning any matter. That is to say, the decision of the dispute should be finalized in the light of the Will of God and His Last Messenger (ﷺ).

We have been guided by God, “If any mutual misunderstanding arises among you and your officials concerning any matter that, whether the commandment of the ruler is suitable or opposite, then the Scripture (Holy Qur’an) of God and Sayings of His Messenger (ﷺ) must be consulted, and brought it to a conclusion. Then the result, which has been settled, that should be considered mutually correct and fit. And if you (in truth) believe in God and the Last Day, then your belief will demand that you should refer the case to the Commandment of God and Sayings of His Messenger (ﷺ), and that belief will excite you to fear Their opposition.

We came to know from it that the person, who will run away from the commandment of God and Sayings of His Messenger (ﷺ), is not a Muslim. Therefore, if two Muslims have any dispute among each other, one of both said, “Let’s refer to Law of Divine”. The other said, “I don’t have any regard to the Law of Divine” or “I am not concerned with any Divine way of religion”, then that person is not believer, otherwise he would not have said such words.

God describes, “If you will refer your disputes and discords to God and Messenger (ﷺ), and obey Them, then it will be better for you. Result of referring the matters to God and His Messenger (ﷺ) is better than quarreling with one another or deciding according to own opinions.

Today, we observe that the Muslims quarrel with one another and instead of taking decision from Holy Qur’an, they refer their cases to other non-Islamic Laws. The only reason of it is that they keep the casual and closely results in view. They do not know that by doing so, they spoil their end (the Day of Resurrection). If they obey the commandments of God, their result may be better and more seemly in the end.
