God says
O you who believe! Be ever steadfast in your devotion to God, bearing witness to truth in all fairness and justice; -- Q.5:8
Indeed [even aforetime] did We send Our messengers with clear signs and sent down with them the Book and [thus gave you] a balance [wherewith to weigh right and wrong] so that men may conduct themselves with all fairness and justice.
-- Q.57:25
Prophet said
“(among the foremost under the shade of God on the Resurrection day there will be also those) who do justice to people like they would do to themselves.’ -- H: Ahmed, Baihaqi. N: Bibi Ayesha.
In this topic, including last Friday, the verses as well as Prophet’s sayings instruct to bear “witness to truth with all fairness and justice,” i.e.,
not only in the court of law, but in any given situation, when assigned the responsibility to judge between two parties.
