"And O my people! let not my dissent (from you) cause you to sin, lest ye suffer a fate similar to that of the people of Nuh or of Hud or of Salih, nor are the people of Lut far off from you!

And to Madyan (We sent) their brother Shu‘aib. He said: "O my people! Worship Allah! You have no other God but Him." Verily, a clear proof (sign) from your Lord has come unto you; so give full measure and full weight and wrong not men in their things, and do not do mischief on the earth after it has been set in order, that will be better for you, if you are believers."And sit not on every road, threatening, and hindering from the Path of Allah those who believe in Him, and seeking to make it crooked. And remember when you were but few, and He multiplied you. And see what was the end of the corrupters.

And to the Madyan people (We sent) their brother Shu‘aib. He said: "O my people! Worship Allah, you have no other God but Him, and give not short measure or weight. I see you in prosperity and verily I fear for you the torment of a Day encompassing."And O my people! Give full measure and weight in justice and reduce not the things that are due to the people, and do not commit mischief in the land, causing corruption.

هود

The dwellers of Al-Aikah belied the Messengers.When Shu‘aib said to them: "Will you not fear Allah?”"I am a trustworthy Messenger to you."So fear Allah, keep your duty to Him, and obey me."No reward do I ask of you for it; my reward is only from the Lord of the Worlds."Give full measure, and cause no loss (to others)."And weigh with the true and straight balance."And defraud not people by reducing their things, nor do evil, making corruption and mischief in the land."And fear Him Who created you and the generations of the men of old."

• Justice in Weighing and Measures

so give full measure and full weight and wrong not men in their things

182-181"Give full measure, and cause no loss (to others). And weigh with the

true and straight balance”.


Woe to Al-Mutaffifin (those who give less in measure and weight).Those who, when they have to receive by measure from men, demand full measure,And when they have to give by measure or weight to (other) men, give less than due.Do they not think that they will be resurrected (for reckoning),On a Great Day?The Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the Worlds?

The buyer and the seller have the choice until they separate, if they were truthful and clear (in disclosing facts about their goods) there deal will be blessed, but if they lied and hid (facts about their goods) the blessing of the deal will be destroyed.

Sarcasm


هود

He said: "O my people! Tell me if I have a clear evidence from my Lord and He has given me a good sustenance from Himself (shall I corrupt it by mixing it with the unlawfully earned money). I wish not, in contradiction to you, to do that which I forbid you. I only desire reform to the best of my power. And my guidance cannot come except from Allah, in Him I trust and unto Him I repent. "And O my people! Let not my enmity cause you to suffer the fate similar to that of the people of Nooh or of Hud or of Salih, and the people of Lut are not far off from you!"And ask forgiveness of your Lord and turn unto Him in repentance. Verily, my Lord is Most Merciful, Most Loving."They said: "O Shu‘aib! We do not understand much of what you say, and we see you weak among us. Were it not for your family, we should certainly have stoned you and you are not powerful against us."He said: "O my people! Is then my family of more weight with you than Allah? And you have cast Him away behind your backs. Verily, my Lord is surrounding all that you do.Hud 88-92


They said: "O Shu‘aib! We do not understand much of what you say, and we see you weak (it is said that he was a blind man) among us. Were it not for your family, we should certainly have stoned you and you are not powerful against us."

Stubbornness



The chiefs of those who were arrogant among his people said: "We shall certainly drive you out, O Shu‘aib, and those who have believed with you from our town, or else you (all) shall return to our religion." He said: "Even though we hate it!?"

األعراف

Threat to Expel

Arrogance



"We should have invented a lie against Allah if we returned to your religion, after Allah has rescued us from it. And it is not for us to return to it unless Allah, our Lord, should will.

"So cause a piece of the heaven to fall on us, if you are of the truthful!"

He said: "My Lord is the Best Knower of what you do."

But they belied him, so the torment of the day of shadow (a gloomy cloud) seized them. Indeed that was the torment of a Great Day.

Verily, in this is indeed a sign, yet most of them are not believers. الشعراء


The chiefs of those who disbelieved among his people said (to their people): "If you follow Shu‘aib, be sure then you will be the losers!"

So the earthquake seized them and they lay (dead), prostrate in their homes.

Those who belied Shu‘aib, became as if they had never dwelt there (in their homes). Those who belied Shu‘aib, they were the losers.

األعراف


"And O my people! Act according to your ability and way, and I am acting (on my way). You will come to know who it is on whom descends the torment that will cover him with ignominy, and who is a liar! And watch you! Verily, I too am watching with you."

And when Our Commandment came, We saved Shu‘aib and those who believed with him by a Mercy from Us. And The Scream (torment-awful cry) seized the wrong-doers, and they lay (dead), prostrate in their homes.

هود


Then he (Shu‘aib) turned from them and said: "O my people! I have indeed conveyed my Lord’s Messages unto you and I have given you good advice. Then how can I sorrow for the disbelieving people’s (destruction)."
