Surah Al-Nahl, Verse 90
إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُ بِالْعَدْلِ وَالْإِحْسَانِ وَإِيتَاءِ ذِي الْقُرْبَىٰ وَيَنْهَىٰ عَنِ الْفَحْشَاءِ وَالْمُنكَرِ وَالْبَغْيِ ۚ يَعِظُكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ
"Indeed, Allah orders justice and good conduct and giving to relatives and forbids immorality and bad conduct and oppression. He admonishes you that perhaps you will be reminded."
Indeed, Allah orders justice and good conduct and giving to relatives and forbids immorality and bad conduct and oppression. He admonishes you that perhaps you will be reminded.
بے شک اللہ عدل اور احسان اور قرابت داروں کو دینے کا حکم دیتا ہے اور بے حیائی اور برے کاموں اور سرکشی سے منع کرتا ہے۔ وہ تمہیں نصیحت کرتا ہے تاکہ تم نصیحت پکڑو۔
Explanation
This comprehensive verse outlines the core ethical principles of Islam. It commands three positive actions: justice (treating others fairly), excellence in conduct (going beyond mere justice to kindness), and generosity to relatives. It also prohibits three negative behaviors: immorality, wrongdoing, and transgression against others. This verse serves as a moral compass for Muslims, guiding them toward virtuous behavior and away from harmful actions.
Context
This verse appears in Surah Al-Nahl (The Bee), which highlights Allah's blessings and guidance. This particular verse is often recited at the end of Friday sermons due to its comprehensive ethical guidance.
