The Importance of Justice and Securing the Right of the Weak

Author: Dr. Muhammad Ziya-ur-Rahman Azmi رحمه الله
《Chapter: Taking the Right of the Weak from the Strong》
◈ Upholding Justice and Protecting the Rights of the Oppressed ◈


❖ Hadith on Delivering the Right of the Weak:​


Narrated by Muʿāwiyah (رضي الله عنه):


The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:


“That nation will not be purified (from sins) in which justice is not established and the weak do not obtain their right from the strong without hesitation.”
📚 Ḥasan – Reported by al-Ṭabarānī in al-Kabīr 19/385

❖ Key Lessons:​


A society cannot attain true sanctity or divine approval if:

  • Judgments are not made based on truth and fairness,
  • The weak are deprived of their rights,
  • Or if they hesitate or fear reclaiming their rights from the powerful.

✔ This hadith underscores the core Islamic value of justice ('adl) — regardless of status, power, or influence.
