What does the Qur'an say about a just ruler and just governance?

Key findingsEditorial

One finding for each passage this study carries, in the order the study reads them. Each is the reason that passage was signed into the study, in full and unedited - including, where the renderings disagree, the disagreement.

  1. 01 4:58 God commandeth you that ye restore deposits to their owners, and, IF YE JUDGE BETWEEN MANKIND, THAT YE JUDGE JUSTLY. In because it is the plainest command to whoever decides, and it joins judging to keeping a trust. ALSO CARRIED by What does the Qur'an say about public office as a trust?, with a different reason there.
  2. 02 38:26 O David, We have set thee as a viceroy in the earth; therefor JUDGE ARIGHT BETWEEN MANKIND, and FOLLOW NOT DESIRE that it beguile thee from the way of God. In because it is the one place a named ruler is given the office and the standard together, and because the danger identified is his own appetite.
  3. 03 4:135 Be ye staunch in justice, witnesses for God, even though it be against yourselves or your parents or your kindred, whether the case be of a rich man or a poor man. In because it removes wealth and poverty as grounds either way. DECLARED DUAL-PLACEMENT from the study What does the Qur'an say about justice - even against yourself?
  4. 04 5:42 If then they have recourse unto thee, judge between them or disclaim jurisdiction... AND IF THOU JUDGEST, JUDGE BETWEEN THEM WITH EQUITY. Lo, God loveth the equitable. In because it permits declining a case and then binds the one who takes it.
  5. 05 5:8 Be steadfast witnesses for God in equity, and LET NOT HATRED OF ANY PEOPLE SEDUCE YOU that ye deal not justly. Deal justly, that is nearer to your duty. In because it closes the other exit. DECLARED DUAL-PLACEMENT from What does the Qur'an say about justice toward non-Muslims?
  6. 06 38:22–24 They said: be not afraid! Two litigants... judge aright between us and be not unjust... And David guessed that We had tried him, and he sought forgiveness of his Lord. In as ONE PASSAGE because it is the only scene in the Qur'an of a ruler judging badly and realising it - the two litigants come to him, he decides before hearing the second, and the passage ends in his repentance.
In plain wordsEditorial written by the editors, not a translation

Written by the editors. Not a translation, and not a source. It is an editorial restatement of the verses in this study and carries their name because someone has to answer for it.

Six passages, and the most useful thing in them is a scene in which a ruler gets it wrong.

38:22-24 is that scene. Two litigants climb into David's private chamber. One states his case - a man with ninety-nine ewes who wants his brother's one. David gives judgment immediately: he has wronged you. And then the passage says David GUESSED THAT WE HAD TRIED HIM, and he sought forgiveness and fell down bowing. He had decided before hearing the second party. The Qur'an's fullest treatment of judging is a prophet-king failing at it.

38:26 gives him the standard afterwards, and names the specific danger: judge aright between mankind, and FOLLOW NOT DESIRE, that it beguile thee from the way of God. What corrupts a ruler in this verse is not bribery but wanting something.

4:58 is the general command and it is joined to trusts - restore deposits to their owners, AND if you judge, judge justly. The two duties are one sentence, which is why What does the Qur'an say about public office as a trust? carries the same verse.

5:42 is procedurally interesting: a judge may DECLINE a case. But if he takes it, he is bound to equity.

The two verses that close the exits are carried here as declared dual-placements: 4:135 removes rich and poor as grounds for leaning, and 5:8 removes hatred of a people.

What is not here is a constitution. There is no verse on how a ruler is chosen, how long he serves, or what removes him. Consultation is taken up by the study What does the Qur'an say about consultation (shura) in decisions?, which found the text equally sparse.

not a scholar — what this signature means

I am not a scholar, and nothing here asks you to treat me as one. The plain words on this site are my restatement of what the five translations shown above say, together with counts derived from the text itself — nothing more. I sign them so that a named person is accountable for every sentence, not so you'll take my word for anything. The authority on this page is the text and its translators. If my words don't match theirs, mine are the ones that are wrong.

Scope of this study

This platform shows the verse, its easy-read line, its translations, a plain-words reading, and each verse among its neighbours. It does not supply occasion of revelation, interpretation (tafsir) or history, and it never invents them.

What this study does not answer, and which source would be needed. It does not say on what occasion any of these verses was given: this study holds no source whose usage rights can be verified. It does not report how any commentator has read them: this study holds no either - the Arabic of , and is public domain by age, but no English edition with verifiable usage rights exists. And it offers no academic-historical reading: this study holds no such scholarship. Each of those is an absence with a named cause, not an omission.

What this rests on

Opens with 4:58, widening across 6 passages in all.

Easy-read is a simplified pronunciation, not authoritative — a rule-by-rule romanisation, not a reading. Each verse ends in its pause form, as it is said when you stop there. Pauses inside a verse and other tajwid rules are not shown. It is derived from the Tanzil Simple edition, while the Arabic above is the Uthmani edition; both are cleared, but they are not the same edition and their orthography differs.

The versesSource fact 6 passages, each with every cleared translation

6 passages, chosen for this question and signed as part of it. Each carries the reason it is here, and each renders in full: the Arabic, then every cleared translation of that verse under its translator's name.

Each verse opens on the translation that comes first in the site's fixed order, which runs from the newest translation to the oldest. The order is not a preference. Open Compare translations on any verse to read the others.

The translators word this verse differently

Talal Itani2012 Have you not observed those who claim that they believe in what was revealed to you, and in what was revealed before you, yet they seek Satanic sources for legislation, in spite of being commanded to reject them? Satan means to mislead them far away.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 Hast thou not seen those who pretend that they believe in that which is revealed unto thee and that which was revealed before thee, how they would go for judgment (in their disputes) to false deities when they have been ordered to abjure them? Satan would mislead them far astray

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Do ye not see those who pretend that they believe in what has been revealed to them, and what was revealed before thee; they wish to refer their judgment to Taghut, but they are bidden to disbelieve therein, and Satan wishes to lead them into a remote error

Andaj, mos ndiqni ndjenjat e të ndryshoni të vërtetën. Në qoftë se shtrembëroni (të vërtetën) ose shmangeni (nga dëshmimi), dijeni se Allahu e di mirë çfarë veproni.

হে মুমিনগণ! তোমরা (সর্বাবস্থায়) ইনসাফের ওপর সুপ্রতিষ্ঠিত থাকো, আল্লাহর সাক্ষী হিসেবে; যদিও তা তোমাদের নিজেদের কিংবা পিতা-মাতার অথবা নিকটাত্মীয়দের বিরুদ্ধে যায়। যদি সে বিত্তশালী হয় কিংবা দরিদ্র, তবে আল্লাহ উভয়ের ঘনিষ্ঠতর। সুতরাং ন্যায়বিচার প্রতিষ্ঠা করতে, তোমরা প্রবৃত্তির অনুসরণ করো না। আর যদি তোমরা (যথোপযুক্তভাবে সাক্ষ্যটিকে আদায় না করে) ঘুরিয়ে-পেঁচিয়ে কথা বলো কিংবা এড়িয়ে যাও, তবে (তোমরা জেনে রেখো যে,) তোমরা যা করো, সে বিষয়ে আল্লাহ সম্যক অবগত।

ისინი [იუდეველები] მეტად უსმენენ სიცრუეს და ბევრს ჭამენ აკრძალულს [მევახშეობენ, ქრთამს იღებენ და სხვ.]. თუ ისინი მოვლენ შენთან (ო, მოციქულო), რათა მათ შორის განაჩენი გამოიტანო, მაშინ განსაჯე ისინი (შარიათის მიხედვით) ან უარი თქვი მათზე. და თუ შენ უარს იტყვი მათზე, ისინი ვერაფერს დაგიშავებენ. ხოლო თუ გადაწყვეტ მათ შორის განსჯას, განსაჯე ისინი სამართლიანად. ჭეშმარიტად, ალლაჰს უყვარს სამართლიანნი.

Sie horchen stets auf die Lügen, und sind stets darauf aus, unrechtmäßig Erworbenes zu verschlingen. Wenn sie zu dir kommen, so richte zwischen ihnen oder wende dich von ihnen ab! Wenn du dich nun von ihnen abwendest, werden sie dir keinen Schaden zufügen, wenn du aber richtest, dann richte zwischen ihnen in Gerechtigkeit. Wahrlich, Allah liebt die Gerechten.

Ακούν πολύ τα ψέματα και καταναλώνουν πολύ τα απαγορευμένα κέρδη (όπως την τοκογλυφία κλπ.). Αν έρθουν σ' εσένα (ω, Προφήτη), (έχεις την επιλογή) ή να κρίνεις μεταξύ τους, ή να απομακρυνθείς απ' αυτούς. Εάν απομακρυνθείς απ' αυτούς, δεν μπορούν να σε βλάψουν σε τίποτε. Αλλά αν κρίνεις, τότε κρίνε μεταξύ τους με δικαιοσύνη. Πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ αγαπά τους δίκαιους.

Talal Itani2012 O Messenger! Do not let those who are quick to disbelief grieve you-from among those who say with their mouths, "We believe," but their hearts do not believe; and from among the Jews-listeners to lies, listeners to other people who did not come to you. They distort words from their places, and they say, "If you are given this, accept it; but if you are not given it, beware." Whomever God has willed to divert, you have nothing for him from God. Those are they whose hearts God does not intend to purify. For them is disgrace in this world, and for them is a great punishment in the Hereafter.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 O Messenger! Let not them grieve thee who vie one with another in the race to disbelief, of such as say with their mouths: "We believe," but their hearts believe not, and of the Jews: listeners for the sake of falsehood, listeners on behalf of other folk who come not unto thee, changing words from their context and saying: If this be given unto you, receive it, but if this be not given unto you, then beware! He whom Allah doometh unto sin, thou (by thine efforts) wilt avail him naught against Allah. Those are they for whom the Will of Allah is that He cleanse not their hearts. Theirs in the world will be ignominy, and in the Hereafter an awful doom

Edward Henry Palmer1880 O thou Apostle! let not those grieve thee who vie in misbelief; or those who say with their mouths 'We believe,' but their hearts do not believe; or of those who are Jews, listeners to a lie, - listeners to other people, but who come not to thee. They pervert the words from their places and say, ' If this is what ye are given, take it; but if ye are not given it, then beware!' but he whom God wishes to mislead, thou canst do nothing with God for him; these are those whose hearts God wishes not to purify, for them in this world is disgrace, and for them in the next is mighty woe

John Medows Rodwell1861 O Apostle! let not those who vie with one another in speeding to infidelity vex thee; - of those who say with their mouths, "We believe," but whose hearts believe not; - or of the Jews listeners to a lie-listeners to others - but who come not to thee. They shift the words of the law from their places, and say, "If this be brought to you, receive it; but if this be not brought to you, then beware of it." For him whom God would mislead, thou canst in no wise prevail with God! They whose hearts God shall not please to cleanse, shall suffer disgrace in this world, and in the next a grievous punishment

George Sale1734 O apostle, let not them grieve thee, who hasten to infidelity, either of those who say, we believe, with their mouths, but whose hearts believe not; or of the Jews, who hearken to a lie, and hearken to other people; who come not unto thee: They pervert the words of the law from their true places, and say, if this be brought unto you, receive it; but if it be not brought unto you, beware of receiving ought else; and in behalf of him whom God shall resolve to seduce , thou shalt not prevail with God at all. They whose hearts God shall not please to cleanse, shall suffer shame in this world, and a grievous punishment in the next

Talal Itani2012 We have revealed the Torah, wherein is guidance and light. The submissive prophets ruled the Jews according to it, so did the rabbis and the scholars, as they were required to protect God's Book, and were witnesses to it. So do not fear people, but fear Me. And do not sell My revelations for a cheap price. Those who do not rule according to what God revealed are the unbelievers.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 Lo! We did reveal the Torah, wherein is guidance and a light, by which the prophets who surrendered (unto Allah) judged the Jews, and the rabbis and the priests (judged) by such of Allah's Scripture as they were bidden to observe, and thereunto were they witnesses. So fear not mankind, but fear Me. And My revelations for a little gain. Whoso judgeth not by that which Allah hath revealed: such are disbelievers

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Verily, we have revealed the law in which is guidance and light; the prophets who we're resigned did judge thereby those who were Jews, as did the masters and doctors by what they remembered of the Book of God and by what they were witnesses of. Fear not men, but fear me, and sell not my signs for a little price; for whoso will not judge by what God has revealed, these be the misbelievers

John Medows Rodwell1861 Verily, we have sent down the law (Towrat) wherein are guidance and light. By it did the prophets who professed Islam judge the Jews; and the doctors and the teachers judged by that portion of the Book of God, of which they were the keepers and the witnesses. Therefore, O Jews! fear not men but fear Me; and barter not away my signs for a mean price! And whoso will not judge by what God hath sent down - such are the Infidels

George Sale1734 We have surely sent down the law, containing direction, and light: Thereby did the prophets, who professed the true religion, judge those who Judaized; and the doctors and priests also judged by the book of God, which had been committed to their custody; and they were witnesses thereof. Therefore fear not men, but fear me; neither sell my signs for a small price. And whoso judgeth not according to what God hath revealed, they are infidels

O vi koji vjerujete, dužnosti prema Allahu izvršavajte, i pravedno svjedočite. Neka vas mržnja koju prema nekim ljudima nosite nikako ne navede da nepravedni budete! Pravedni budite, to je najbliže bogobojaznosti, i bojte se Allaha. Allah, doista, u potpunosti zna ono što činite.

O die ihr glaubt, seid Wahrer (der Sache) Allahs als Zeugen für die Gerechtigkeit. Und der Hass, den ihr gegen (bestimmte) Leute hegt, soll euch ja nicht dazu bringen, dass ihr ungerecht handelt. Handelt gerecht, denn das kommt der Furcht (vor Allah) näher. Und fürchtet Allah. Wahrlich, Allah ist dessen kundig, was ihr tut.

Ω, εσείς που πιστεύετε! Να είστε σταθεροί στην εκτέλεση των δικαιωμάτων του Αλλάχ σ' εσάς (με το να Τον λατρεύετε χωρίς να Του αποδίδετε κανέναν εταίρο) και να είστε μάρτυρες με δικαιοσύνη. Και να μην σας οδηγεί το μίσος για κάποιους να εγκαταλείψετε τη δικαιοσύνη. Να είστε δίκαιοι. Αυτό είναι το πλησιέστερο στην ευσέβεια. Και φυλαχθείτε από την τιμωρία του Αλλάχ (εκτελώντας τις εντολές Του και απέχοντας από τις απαγορεύσεις Του). Πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ είναι για όσα κάνετε Παντογνώστης.

And David guessed that We had tried him, and he sought forgiveness of his Lord, and he bowed himself and fell down prostrate and repented

Edward Henry Palmer published 1880

Said he, 'He wronged thee in asking for thy ewe in addition to his own ewes. Verily, many associates do injure one another, except those who believe and do what is right, and very few are they!' And he thought that we were trying him; and he asked pardon of his Lord and fell down bowing, and did turn

John Medows Rodwell published 1861

He said, "Certainly he hath wronged thee in asking for thine ewe to add her to his own ewes: and truly many associates do one another wrong - except those who believe and do the things that are right; and few indeed are they!" And David perceived that we had tried him; so he asked pardon of his Lord, and fell down and bowed himself and repented

George Sale published 1734

David answered, verily he hath wronged thee, in demanding thine ewe as an addition to his own sheep: And many of them who are concerned together in business, wrong one another, except those who believe and do that which is right; but how few are they! And David perceived that We had tried him by this parable, and he asked pardon of his Lord: And he fell down and bowed himself, and repented

38:22 Kur hynë te Davudi, ai u tremb. Ata i thanë: "Mos ki frikë! Ne jemi dy kundërshtarë, njëri prej të cilëve i ka bërë padrejtësi tjetrit, prandaj gjyko mes nesh me drejtësi e mos bëj shkelje, por udhëzona në rrugë të drejtë."

38:23 Ky është vëllai im: ai ka nëntëdhjetë e nëntë dele, ndërsa unë kam vetëm një dele, por, megjithatë më thotë: "Ma jep mua atë!" dhe më mundi me fjalë."

38:24 Davudi tha: "Pa dyshim, ai të ka bërë padrejtësi duke kërkuar delen tënde për ta bashkuar me delet e veta. Me të vërtetë, shumë ortakë i bëjnë padrejtësi njëri-tjetrit, me përjashtim të atyre që besojnë dhe bëjnë vepra të mira, e të atillët janë pak." Atëherë, Davudi e kuptoi se Ne vetëm po e sprovonim, prandaj kërkoi falje nga Zoti i tij, ra me fytyrë përtokë dhe u pendua.

38:22 যখন তারা (উভয়ে আকস্মিকভাবে) দাঊদের কাছে প্রবেশ করল, তখন সে তাদের ভয় পেয়ে গেল। তারা (দাঊদকে) বলল: ‘আপনি ভয় করবেন না, আমরা বিবদমান দু’পক্ষ। আমাদের একে অন্যের উপর সীমালঙ্ঘন করেছে। অতএব আপনি আমাদের মধ্যে ন্যায়বিচার করুন, অবিচার করবেন না। আর আমাদেরকে সরল-সঠিক পথের নির্দেশনা দিন।’

38:23 (বিবাদকারীদের একজন বললো:) ‘নিশ্চয় এ আমার ভাই। তার নিরানব্বইটি ভেড়ী আছে, আর আমার আছে মাত্র একটা ভেড়ী। তবুও সে বলে, ‘এ ভেড়ীটিও আমার তত্ত্বাবধানে দিয়ে দাও’, আর (প্রমাণ উপস্থাপনে) তর্কে সে আমার ওপর প্রাধান্য বিস্তার করেছে।’

38:24 দাঊদ বলল: ‘তোমার ভেড়ীকে তার ভেড়ীর পালের সাথে যুক্ত করার দাবি করে সে তোমার প্রতি যুলম করেছে। আর শরীকদের অনেকেই (১৩) একে অন্যের উপর সীমালঙ্ঘন করে থাকে। তবে কেবল তারাই এরূপ করে না, যারা ঈমান আনে এবং নেক আমল করে। আর এরা সংখ্যায় খুবই কম।’ আর দাঊদ বুঝতে পারল যে, (এই দুজনের ঝগড়া দ্বারা) আমি তাকে পরীক্ষা করেছি। তারপর সে তার রবের কাছে ক্ষমা চাইল, সাজদায় লুটিয়ে পড়ল এবং তাঁর অভিমুখী হল।

38:22 როცა ისინი დაუდთან შევიდნენ, მას შეეშინდა მათი (რადგან ჩვეულებრივ მასთან არავინ შედიოდა, ხოლო ეს ორი კედელზეც კი გადმოძვრა). მათ უთხრეს: «ნუ გეშინია! ჩვენ ორი მოდავე მხარე ვართ — ერთმა ჩვენგანმა მეორეს უსამართლობა გაუკეთა. ამიტომ განსაჯე ჩვენ შორის ჭეშმარიტებით, ნუ იქნები უსამართლო და გვიჩვენე სწორი გზა».

38:23 (ერთ-ერთმა მათგანმა თქვა): «აი, ეს ჩემი ძმაა. მას ოთხმოცდაცხრამეტი ცხვარი ჰყავს, მე კი ერთი ცხვარი მყავს. მან მითხრა: "მომანდე იგი მე!" — და თავისი სიტყვით [მჭევრმეტყველებით] მაჯობა».

38:24 [დაუდმა] თქვა: «მან [შენმა ძმამ] უსამართლოდ მოგექცა, როცა შენი ცხვარი თავის ცხვრებს მიამატა. და, ჭეშმარიტად, მრავალი თანამონაწილე (რაიმე საქმეში) ერთმანეთს უსამართლოდ ექცევა, გარდა მათისა, ვინც ირწმუნა და კეთილი საქმეები აკეთა, — და ასეთები ცოტანი არიან». და იფიქრა დაუდმა, რომ ჩვენ მხოლოდ გამოვცადეთ იგი ამ დავით; მაშინ მან თავისი უფლისგან პატიება ითხოვა, მუხლმოდრეკით დაემხო და მონანიებით მიუბრუნდა (ალლაჰს). ۩

38:22 Als sie bei Dawud eintraten. Da erschrak er vor ihnen. Sie sagten: „Fürchte dich nicht. (Wir sind) zwei Widersacher, von denen der eine den anderen unterdrückt hat. So urteile zwischen uns der Wahrheit entsprechend, handle nicht ungerecht und führe uns zum rechten Weg.

38:23 (Einer der beiden sagte:) „Dieser da, mein Bruder, hat neunundneunzig weibliche Schafe, ich aber (nur) ein einziges Schaf. Da sagte er: ‚Vertraue es mir an’, und er überwand mich in der Rede.“

38:24 Er (also Dawud) sagte: „Er hat dir ja Unrecht getan, dass er dein Schaf zu seinen Schafen hinzu verlangte. Und wahrlich, viele von den Teilhabern begehen gegeneinander Übergriffe, außer denjenigen, die glauben und rechtschaffene Werke tun - und das sind nur wenige.“ Und Dawud war sich bewusst, dass Wir ihn nur der Versuchung ausgesetzt hatten. Da bat er seinen Herrn um Vergebung und fiel in Verbeugung nieder und wandte sich (Ihm) reuig zu.

38:22 Όταν μπήκαν στον τόπο του Δαβίδ, και (ο Δαβίδ) τρόμαξε απ' αυτούς, είπαν: «Μη φοβάσαι! Είμαστε δύο αντίπαλοι, που αδικήσαμε ο ένας τον άλλον. Κρίνε λοιπόν μεταξύ μας με τη δικαιοσύνη, μην αδικήσεις (εμάς με την κρίση σου) και καθοδήγησέ μας στο σωστό δρόμο.»

38:23 (Ένας απ' αυτούς είπε): «Αυτός είναι ο αδερφός μου. Ο οποίος έχει ενενήντα εννέα προβατίνες ενώ εγώ έχω μόνο μία. Και (μου) είπε: «Δώσ' τη μου.» και με νίκησε στα λόγια.»

38:24 (Ο Δαβίδ) είπε: «Πράγματι, σε αδίκησε που ζήτησε να προσθέσει την προβατίνα σου στις προβατίνες του. Πράγματι, πολλοί συνέταιροι καταπιέζουν ο ένας τον άλλον, εκτός απ' αυτούς που πιστεύουν και κάνουν ενάρετες πράξεις, και πόσο λίγοι είναι αυτοί!» Τότε ο Δαβίδ κατάλαβε ότι Εμείς τον δοκιμάζαμε (μ' αυτή την υπόθεση), και έτσι, ζήτησε συγχώρεση από τον Κύριό του, έπεσε σε Σιτζούντ στάση (με το μέτωπο στο έδαφος) και στράφηκε με μεταμέλεια. [Δεν αναφέρεται εδώ γιατί ζήτησε συγχώρεση, αλλά μπορεί επειδή έκρινε αφού άκουσε τον έναν και χωρίς να ακούσει τον άλλον].

38:22 जब वे दाऊद के पास अंदर आए, तो वह उनसे घबरा गया। उन्होंने कहा : डरिए नहीं। (हम) दो झगड़ने वाले हैं। हममें से एक ने दूसरे पर अत्याचार किया है। सो आप हमारे बीच सत्य के साथ न्याय कर दें, और अन्याय न करें, तथा हमारी सीधे मार्ग की ओर रहनुमाई करें।

38:23 निःसंदेह यह मेरा भाई है। इसके पास निन्नानवे दुंबियाँ हैं और मेरे पास एक दुंबी है। तो इसने कहा कि इसे (भी) मुझे सौंप दे और इसने बात-चीत में मुझे दबा लिया।

38:24 उसने कहा : निःसंदेह उसने तेरी दुंबी को अपनी दुंबियों के साथ मिलाने की माँग करके तुझपर अत्याचार किया है। तथा निःसंदेह बहुत-से साझी निश्चय एक-दूसरे पर अत्याचार करते हैं। सिवाय उन लोगों के, जो ईमान लाए और उन्होंने अच्छे कर्म किए और ये लोग बहुत ही कम हैं। और दाऊद ने यक़ीन कर लिया कि हमने उसकी परीक्षा ली है। अतः उसने अपने पालनहार से क्षमा याचना की, तथा सजदे में गिर गया, और (अल्लाह की ओर) वापस लौटा।

38:23 Han, min bror, äger nittionio tackor och jag blott en enda. Ändå sa han till mig: ’Överlåt den till mig’, och han fick mig att ge efter med sitt tal.”

38:24 Han svarade: ”Han har verkligen gjort orätt mot dig genom att kräva din enda tacka för att lägga den till sina egna. Många av de med gemensamma tillgångar behandlar varandra felaktigt, förutom de som tror och handlar rättfärdigt – och dessa är få.” I det ögonblicket insåg David att vi prövade honom, så han bad sin Herre om förlåtelse och föll ned på sitt ansikte och ångrade sig.

Talal Itani2012 "O David, We made you a ruler in the land, so judge between the people with justice, and do not follow desire, lest it diverts you from God's path. Those who stray from God's path will have a painful punishment, for having ignored the Day of Account."

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 (And it was said unto him): O David! Lo! We have set thee as a viceroy in the earth; therefor judge aright between mankind, and follow not desire that it beguile thee from the way of Allah. Lo! those who wander from the way of Allah have an awful doom, forasmuch as they forgot the Day of Reckoning

Edward Henry Palmer1880 O David! verily, we have made thee a vicegerent, judge then between men with truth and follow not lust, for it will lead thee astray from the path of god. Verily, those who go astray from the path of God, for them is keen torment, for that they did forget the day of reckoning

John Medows Rodwell1861 O David! verily we have made thee our vicegerent upon earth. Judge therefore between men with truth, and follow not thy passions, lest they cause thee to err from the way of God. For they who err from the way of God shall meet with a grievous chastisement, for that they have forgotten the day of reckoning

George Sale1734 O David, verily We have appointed thee a sovereign prince in the earth: Judge therefore between men with truth; and follow not thy own lust, lest it cause thee to err from the way of God: For those who err from the way of God, shall suffer a severe punishment, because they have forgotten the day of account

What this study rests on, and what it refusessigned with it5 of the 6 paragraphs signed with this study; the paragraph naming what it does not answer is at the top of the page

The selection above and this account of it are part of what was signed. Where the renderings disagree it says so; where the question runs past what has cleared the rights audit it says that too.

Read across the four public-domain translations - Sale 1734, Rodwell 1861, Palmer 1880, Pickthall 1930 - of 4:58, 38:26, 4:135, 5:42, 5:8, 38:22-24, in full, and nothing else. This study consults no , no , no occasion of revelation and no biography, because none is yet available in an edition whose usage rights can be verified. Itani 2012, the fifth translation shown with these verses, was not consulted for this study.

How this set was arrived at. The verses were found by a word search of the four public-domain translations, using terms chosen by the editor and listed here as they were searched - judge + between + men + justly; judge + with + justice; judge + by + that + which + god + revealed; rule + justly; david + judge + between. The search was a way of finding passages, not a judgement about what they mean: that several translators chose the same English word is not evidence about the Arabic. A different choice of terms gives a different set.

What was returned and not carried. 9 verse(s) the search qualified are recorded as not carried with a reason each, rather than silently discarded: 2:213 - the origin of revelation; 2:282 - carried by What does the Qur'an say about writing down debts and contracts?; 4:105 - on-topic; not carried because its occasion is a specific accusation; 5:44 - it belongs to the separate question of judging by revelation, not answered here; 5:45 - carried by What does the Qur'an say about retaliation and its limits (qisas)?; 5:47 - the same as 5:44; 5:48 - revelation; 5:49 - the same; 34:26 - divine judgment.

Verses carried by more than one study. Some passages here also serve another study. Each carries its own reason in each place, and the reason states where else it appears.

Where the translations part company, named rather than resolved. How differently the translations word each verse is shown on that verse's page, and the study names the differences it turns on rather than choosing between them.
