May you read my article please? I know it has nothing to do with this
group but it may open your mind about something that you don’t know.

Justice to all Mankind,
Even Those Who Make an Enemy of Islam

The saying of Allaah the Exalted:

"O you who believe! Stand out firmly for Allaah as just witnesses;
and let not the enmity and hatred of others allow you to avoid
justice. Be just: that is closer to piety; and fear Allaah. Indeed,
Allaah is Well-Acquainted with what you do."
[Soorah Al-Maa'idah 5:8]
Ibn Katheer explains:

“Do not let your hatred of a people cause you to be unjust to them,
rather you must be just to everyone, friends or enemies, this is why
Allaah said: 'Be just: that is closer to piety' Meaning being just is
closer to piety than being unjust.”
At Tabari, a renowned scholar of the 8th century comments:

“Do not let enmity between you and others cause you to be unjust in
your dealings and rulings with them such that you oppress them due to
the enmity that is between you... It has been stated that this verse
was revealed when the Jews plotted to murder the Prophet.”
Al Qurtubi, a scholar from the 12th century states:

“This verse also proves that the disbelief of non-Muslims must not
prevent us from being just to them...and it is not permissible for us
to retaliate in the same manner, even if they kill our women and
children and cause sorrow to befall us, it is not permissible for us
to act likewise with the intention of making them feel grief and
sorrow.”

Allaah the Elevated says:

"Verily, Allaah enjoins justice, beneficence, giving (help) to kith
and kin, and forbids all forms of evil and Al-Munkar (i.e. all that is
prohibited by Islamic law and oppression). He admonishes you, that you
may take heed.)."
[Soorah An-Nahl 16:90]
Ibn Katheer states:

“Allaah orders his servants with justice, which is fairness and
equity, and encourages them to be beneficent.”

Allaah the Mighty says:

"Indeed We have sent Our Messengers with clear proofs, and revealed
with them the Scripture and the Balance (justice) that mankind may
keep up justice."
[Soorah Al-Hadeed 57:25]
At Tabari comments:

“Meaning: So that people may interact amongst each other with
justice.”

Allaah the Merciful says:

"That no burdened person (with sins) shall bear the burden (sins) of
another."
[Soorah An-Najm 53:38]
Ibn Katheer comments:

“Meaning: Anybody who has oppressed himself by disbelief or sins will
be responsible for those sins, nobody else will carry the burden.”
As Sa`di, a scholar of the 19th century explains:

“…and no one shall bear the sin of another.”
The noble scholar; `Abdul-Azeez Aal Ash-Shaykh, current Mufti of the
kingdom of Saudi Arabia comments:

“Allaah judged that no person shall bear the burden of another
person’s sin due to His absolute justness.”
The Messenger of Allaah, may peace be upon him, informed us that
Allaah said:

“O My Servants, indeed I have prohibited injustice for myself, and I
have prohibited it amongst you.”
The noble scholar; `Abdul-`Azeez Aal Ash-Shaykh comments:

“This is general to all mankind, whether they are Muslim or not, it is
not permissible for any one person to oppress another even if they
were enemies or harbored hatred for one another. Enmity and hatred do
not authorize anyone in the legislation of Islam to be unjust or
practice oppression.”
The former Mufti of Saudi Arabia, Shaykh `Abdul-`Azeez Ibn Baaz
states:

“It is not permissible for Muslims to transgress upon non-Muslims, not
in their person, their wealth or their reputations if they are formal
residents in a Muslim country, have a treaty with Muslims or are under
Muslim protection, rather they must be given their rights. Muslims
must not transgress upon non-Muslims by stealing from, betraying or
cheating them with regards to their wealth. Likewise they mustn’t
physically transgress upon them by hitting them and so on. The fact
that they are residents, under treaty or protection secures them from
that.”
The noble scholar; Saalih al Luhaydan, chairman of the higher
judiciary council of Saudi Arabia states:

“During battles, the Messenger of Allaah would advice the army:

“Do not kill women, children, the elderly and those devoted to worship
in their religious centers.”

This means that Islam does not permit killing anyone except those who
kill, wage war or oppress Muslims.”
An Nawawi, a distinguished scholar from the 12th century states:

“There is a consensus amongst the scholars that killing women and
children is prohibited in battle except if they themselves engage in
battle.”
