O Mankind! Reverence Your Guardian-Lord

O mankind! reverence your Guardian-Lord

 [1304008; Holy Quran, sony sugema digital quran 3.0]

Allah says,

“In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

O mankind! reverence your Guardian-Lord, who created you from a single person, created, of like nature, His mate, & from them twain scattered (like seeds) countless men & women;- reverence Allah, through whom ye demand your mutual (rights), & (reverence) the wombs (That bore you): for Allah ever watches over you.

To orphans restore their property (When they reach their age), nor substitute (your) worthless things for (their) good ones; & devour not their substance (by mixing it up) with your won. For this is indeed a great sin.

If ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly with the orphans, Marry women of your choice, Two or three or four; but if ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one, or (a captive) that your right hands possess, that will be more suitable, to prevent you from doing injustice.

And give the women (on marriage) their dower as a free gift; but if they, of their own good pleasure, remit any part of it to you, Take it & enjoy it with right good cheer.

To those weak of understanding Make not over your property, which Allah hath made a means of support for you, but feed & clothe them therewith, & speak to them words of kindness & justice.

Make trial of orphans until they reach the age of marriage; if then ye find sound judgment in them, release their property to them; but consume it not wastefully, nor in haste against their growing up. If the guardian is well-off, Let him claim no remuneration, but if he is poor, let him have for himself what is just & reasonable. When ye release their property to them, take witnesses in their presence: But all-sufficient is Allah in taking account.

From what is left by parents & those nearest related there is a share for men & a share for women, whether the property be small or large,-a determinate share.

But if at the time of division other relatives, or orphans or poor, are present, feed them out of the (property), & speak to them words of kindness & justice.

But if at the time of division other relatives, or orphans or poor, are present, feed them out of the (property), & speak to them words of kindness & justice.

Those who unjustly eat up the property of orphans, eat up a Fire into their own bodies: They will soon be enduring a Blazing Fire!” [Holy Quran An-Nisa 4:1-10]
