SHARIAH IS NOTHING EXCEPT FULFILLING RIGHTS OF OTHERS
Shariah consists solely
of fulfilling rights of others. Some of these are rights of Allah Ta’alah,
while others are rights of Allah Ta’alah’s creations. Even amongst rights of people,
there are many different categories, for example, rights of parents, rights of
spouses, rights of children, rights of relatives, rights of neighbours, rights
of travel companions, etc. The whole of
Shariah is a sum of all of these rights. Violating or neglecting any of these
rights renders a person’s Deen (religion) imperfect, for example, if a person fulfils
the rights of Allah Ta’alah but violates the rights of other people, then his
Deen is imperfect and incomplete. Rights of relatives are a very important
category amongst all these rights.
