The punishment of misappropriation according to the Holy Qur’an

The punishment of misappropriation according to the Holy Qur’an

The Almighty Allah (S.w.T.) says

 “...and he who eats unfaithfully shall bring that in respect of which he has acted unfaithfully on the Day of Resurrection; then every soul be paid fully what it has earned, and they shall not be dealt with unjustly. Is then he who follows the pleasure of Allah like him who has made himself deserving of displeasure from Allah, and his abode is hell; and it is an evil destination.”

 (Surah Ä€li-‘Imrān 3:161-162)

 In Surah at-TahrÄ«m we find the verse:

 “Allah sets forth an example to those who disbelieve, the wife of Nuh and the wife of Lut: they were both under two of Our righteous servants, but they acted treacherously towards them so they availed them naught against Allah, and it was said: Enter both the fire with those who enter.”

 (Surah at-TahrÄ«m 66:10)

 Also Allah (S.w.T.)  says:

 “… Surely Allah does not love the treacherous.”

 (Surah al-Anfāl 8:58)

 and

 “O you who believe! Be not unfaithful to Allah and the Apostle, nor be unfaithful to your trusts while you know.”

 (Surah al-Anfāl 8:27)

 Similarly the Qur’an says,

 “…but if one of you trusts another, then he who is trusted should deliver his trusts, and let him be careful (of his duty to) Allah, his Lord...”

 (Surah al-Baqarah 2:283)

 At another place the Divine Book states,

 “Surely Allah commands you to make over trusts to their owners...”

 (Surah an-Nisā’ 4:58)
