Принцип справедливості в ісламі

Abstract

У статті розкрито трактування принципу справедливості в ісламі як релігії процвітання суспільства на основі соціальної рівності. Доведено, що уявлення про даний принцип в ісламі базується на основі узгодження своїх дій з вимогами природного стану речей, де під справедливістю розуміється порядок життєвих відносин, встановлений Богом; порядок, який випливає з природи людини, природи речей і природи відносин. Вимоги справедливості в ісламі полягають у необхідності повернення до початкового стану у випадку порушення даного порядку. Від мусульман вимагається лише дотримуватись цього порядку, у тому числі і шляхом соціального єднання в уммі (громаді), межі якої збігаються з межами всього ісламського світу.

The article deals with the interpretation of the principle of justice in Islam as a religion of society’s prosperity based on social justice. The author proves that the category of “justice” in Islam has several meanings: firstly, it is equally the same treatment of any person to anybody in the community; secondly, it is the equality between people; thirdly, these are actions corresponding to the generally accepted moral and legal standards; fourthly, these are conscience, accuracy, impartiality, faithfulness, certainty, correctness and truth; fifthly, it is justice; and finally, it is a kind of counterweight to tyranny injustice and evil. But the Islamic understanding of justice differs in interpretation of it not only as a personal virtue, but as a principle of organization of community of believers and political system. The use of different values of justice aims to fi ll the very meaning of justice by means of these terms. It includes equity, equality, sincerity and control. On the one hand, it is justice between creator and creation, when power of Allah consider above you own happiness, His prosperity above your own whims and desires, and also when follow His commandments and keep His prohibitions. On the other hand, justice is reflected in relationships between people and their own “I”, when it rejects any destruction. Thirdly, there must be justice between among all Allah’s creations for them to be guided by law, to help each other with advice and deed, but not to cheat and bring any harm, to endure insults patiently and always follow the middle path. It has been proved that the Muslim idea of justice is based on the principle of coordination of own actions according to the requirements of natural order of things, where the law refers to the God’s established order of life relationships, derived from human nature, the nature of things and the nature of relationships. The requirements of justice in this order presuppose the need to return to its original state in case of violation of this order. Muslims are expected just to follow this order, including the way of social cohesion in mind (community), limits of which coincide with the limits of the Islamic world itself.
