Justice
Shaykh Tusi
Allah is Just and
Judicious in the sense that He does not do anything
obnoxious and does not derange what is obligatory to do because what is obnoxious
is a fault and deranging what is obligatory will be a fault. Therefore Allah
is free from everything obnoxious and from disturbing anything
obligatory.
It is a disputed point whether it is a matter
of common sense or a matter of Islamic law that certain things are right
and certain others are wrong. We hold that it is a matter of common sense
that certain things like justice, truth, honesty and faithfulness are right
and certain things like tyranny, oppression, and transgression are wrong.
The Ashairah maintain that it is only a matter of Islamic law in both
cases. Therefore only that which has been described by it as right, is right
and only that which has been described by it as evil, is wrong.
