Justice

Beliefs & concepts

The named virtue of giving each their due in moral and civic speech. Not mercy as soft remission alone, and not revenge as private payback.

Islam

  • Justice appears in Islam.

    The Qur’an commands ʿadl and qisṭ — justice and equity — in judgment, trade, and witness. Islamic justice speech, not a cardinal-virtue checklist alone and not Maat as Egyptian truth-order under a forced flatten.
