فَقَالَ أَكْفِلْنِيهَا وَعَزَّنِى فِى ٱلْخِطَابِ 23b
قَالَ لَقَدْ ظَلَمَكَ بِسُؤَالِ نَعْجَتِكَ إِلَىٰ نِعَاجِهِۦ وَإِنَّ كَثِيرًا مِّنَ ٱلْخُلَطَآءِ لَيَبْغِى بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ وَقَلِيلٌ مَّا هُمْ 24a

and he said, ‘Entrust it to me,’ and he
pressured me with words.” 24a.

good deeds, but these are so few.” |
The plaintiff has been describing: My this brother is owner of ninety nine ewes whereas I have only one ewe. Even then he says: What will you do with this one ewe? It is useless for you. Give it to me because owner of one ewe is considered poor and a worthless fellow. You can’t be counted in rich people by it. If you will give me your ewe, it will increase my value. People will say: He is a rich because he is owner of one hundred ewes. Remember! I can snatch it from you if you do not hand over to me because people of the Township trust in me.
David (Peace be upon him) called the defendant to account. He would have admitted the claim as correct. Then David (Peace be upon him) judged: The defendant is unjust clearly. Usually dwellers of a place wrong one another. Powerful keeps the feeble pressed down and the rich seize the things of the poor. They don’t care concerning justice. However the people who believe in God Almighty and do good works for the sake of their Lord, they escape from wronging others. But such people are only a few in the world. Be satisfied! We shall not let him do injustice with you.
