and of the hereafter: for God is He that heareth and seeth (all things).

135. O ye who believe! stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to God, even as against
yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, and whether it be (against) rich or poor: for God
can best protect both. Follow not the lusts (of your hearts), lest ye swerve, and if ye
distort (justice) or decline to do justice, verily God is well- acquainted with all that ye do.
