After having stated the rules of behavior as related to women and orphans, the text now reminds the promise of rewards for those abiding by these rules, and the warning for those contravening them, which is the usual style of the Qur’an.

This means that it is human beings who need Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala and not Him Who needs people. He is free from every need. A slave cannot offer anything to his Master other than submission. He is worthy of all praise in all His decisions and commandments.

Those whose ultimate desire is this life know that Allah owns the rewards of this life and the Hereafter. Therefore, if we ask Allah for both, He will enrich us, award us and suffice for us.

In this ayah, all Muslims have been instructed to uphold justice and be true when appearing as witnesses. Besides, things which can become impediments to the establishment of justice or the availability of true evidence have been removed in a highly eloquent manner.

“But of mankind there are some who say: ‘Our Lord! Give us in this world!’ and for such there will be no portion in the Hereafter. And of them there are some who say: ‘Our Lord! Give us in this world that which is good and in the Hereafter that which is good, and save us from the torment of the Fire!’ For them there will be allotted a share for what they have earned.”

This is an instruction to give correct testimony, and say the truth when asked about it, even if harm will affect you as a consequence. Indeed, Allah shall make a way out and give relief for those who obey Him in every matter.

Allah’s statement, أَوِ الْوَلِدَيْنِ وَالاٌّقْرَبِينَ “or your parents, or your kin” means, even if you have to testify against your parents and kin, do not compromise for their sake. Rather, give the correct and just witness even if they are harmed in the process, for the truth presides above everyone and is preferred to everyone.

means, do not favor someone (in your testimony) because he is rich, or feel pity for him because he is poor, for Allah is their caretaker, a better Protector of them than you, and has better knowledge of what is good for them. Allah’s statement,

what you do.

what Allah does

what prophet did.

the aim is to point out to the limitless scope of Allah’s power of creation which lacks nothing.

the objective is to focus on Allah’s attribute of self-sufficiency, self-adequacy and His being need-free. It means, should one disbelieve, deny or reject the good counsel given, He is in no need of anyone’s obedience for He stands ever-praised on His pristine glory.

mention of these words embodies a statement of Allah’s mercy which makes things work for people. It means should one fear Allah and be obedient to Him, Allah will fulfill all his needs, because He is the Owner of everything in this universe. Subhan’Allah!

everyone should adopt justice as his or her hallmark within his or her circle of influence or control. Parents being in a position of authority and leadership should raise their children with excellence.
