10.2.5 伊斯兰教中的公正
10.2.5 Justice in Islam
人类的知识是有限的,也容易犯错,并且会受到偏见的影响。伊斯兰并不像西方那样,把公正的立法交由人的随意好恶来决定。相反,制定律法的权力唯独属于真主(SWT),祂是人类的创造者,也是最了解人类的那一位。你认为谁最有资格承担这项任务?真主(SWT)说:
Human beings are limited in knowledge and are fallible. They are prone to error and subject to prejudice. Islam does not leave the legislation of justice to the whims and fancies of human beings as is the case in the West. Instead the permission to make laws is only for Allah (swt) the creator of mankind and the One Who knows human beings the best. Who do you think is best qualified for this task? Allah (swt) says,.
“裁决只属于真主。”【古兰经 6:57】
“The rule is to none but Allah.” [TMQ 6:57].
因此,你可以放心,在伊斯兰法庭上,法官是否与被告是朋友,或他当天心情不好,都不会影响他所施加的刑罚的轻重。
Thus you can rest assured that in an Islamic court, factors such as the judge being friends with the accused, or having had a bad day, have no bearing on the severity of the punishment he chooses to administer.
如果你是犯罪的受害者,而你贫穷,对方却富有,这对法庭的判决完全没有任何影响。你可以委托代表替你发言,但这里并不涉及巨额金钱。法庭的目标仅在于确立公正,而非牟利。因此,由谁来陈述你的案件、其口才如何,都无关紧要,关键在于法官查明事实并加以评判。
If you are a victim of crime and are poor while your opponent is wealthy, this will have no effect whatsoever on the verdict of the court. While you are allowed to appoint a representative to speak on your behalf, there are no vast sums of money at stake. The objective of the courts is solely to establish justice, not to make money. Therefore, it does not matter who presents your case, or how persuasively he speaks, but it is up to the judge to ascertain the facts and evaluate them.
