The Justice of God

THE JUSTICE OF GOD
Question:

What are the remaining beliefs that are fundamental to Islam?

Answer:

They are justice; the imamate; qada’ and qadar; compulsion or free will.

Question:

What is meant by justice?

Answer:

Justice means that God is fair and is not unjust to anyone, and does not commit any shameful act. Whatever oppression, cruelty and evil we see in the world is from human kind. For example, if one man kills another this murder is an evil act and an injustice that has been committed by man, not by God.

Question:

It is true that an aggressive act committed by an individual on another is not from God, but how do you account for natural disasters like floods, storms, earthquakes, diseases and so on that humans have no hand in, and which, in the main part, result in death and misery for innocent people?

Answer:

These matters which people have no hand in can be explained in this way:  for the transgressors it is a chastisement, and for the innocent it is a warning, and they will be recompensed in the hereafter.
