Backbite-Corruption
Backbite:
You who believe! Avoid most suspicion. Indeed some suspicion is a crime. And do not spy and do not backbite one another. Would any of you like to eat his brother’s dead flesh? No, you would hate it. And have fear of Allah. Allah is Ever-Returning, Most Merciful. (12)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Hujurat (The Chambers), Surah # 49: Ayah # 12)

Brother:
If two parties of the believers fight, make peace between them. But if one of them attacks the other unjustly, fight the attackers until they revert to Allah’s command. If they revert, make peace between them with justice, and be even-handed. Allah loves those who are evenhanded. (9) The believers are brothers, so make peace between your brothers and have fear of Allah so that hopefully you will gain mercy. (10)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Hujurat (The Chambers), Surah # 49: Ayah # 9-10)

Call: (towards ALLAH, towards right path)
You are the best nation ever to be produced before mankind. You enjoin the right, forbid the wrong and believe in Allah. If the People of the Book were to believe, it would be better for them. Some of them are believers but most of them are deviators. (110)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al ‘Imran (The Family Of 'Imran, The House Of 'Imran), Surah # 3: Ayah # 110)
Let there be a community among you who call to the good, and enjoin the right, and forbid the wrong. They are the ones who have success. (104)

Restrain yourself patiently with those who call on their Lord morning and evening, desiring His face. Do not turn your eyes from them, desiring the attractions of this world. And do not obey someone whose heart We have made neglectful of Our remembrance and who follows his own whims and desires and whose life has transgressed all bounds. (28)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Kahf (The Cave), Surah # 18: Ayah # 28)
(Believers are) those who, when they are reminded of the Signs of their Lord, do not turn their backs, deaf and blind to them; (73)

Do not let them debar you from Allah’s Signs after they have been sent down to you. Call people to your Lord and on no account be one of the idolaters. (87)

Cattle:
That is it. If someone honours Allah’s sacred things, that is better for him in his Lord’s sight. All livestock are permitted to you except what has already been recited to you. Have done with the defilement of idols and have done with telling lies. (30)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Hajj (The Pilgrimage), Surah # 22: Ayah # 30)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chastity:
Say to the believers that they should lower their eyes and guard their chastity. That is purer for them. Allah is aware of what they do. (30) Say to the believing women that they should lower their eyes and guard their chastity and not display their adornments–except for what normally shows–and draw their head-coverings across their breasts. They should only display their adornments to their husbands or their fathers or their husbands’ fathers, or their sons or
their husbands’ sons or their brothers or their brothers’ sons or their sisters’ sons or their women or those they own as slaves or their male attendants who have no sexual desire or children who still have no awareness of women’s private parts. Nor should they stamp their feet so that their hidden ornaments are known. Turn to Allah every one of you, believers, so that hopefully you will have success. (31)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al Nur (The light), Surah # 24: Ayah # 30-31)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Children:
Say: ‘Come and I will recite to you what your Lord has made forbidden for you’: that you do not associate anything with Him; that you are good to your parents; that you do not kill your children because of poverty–We will provide for you and them; that you do not approach indecency– outward or inward; that you do not kill any person Allah has made inviolate– except with the right to do so. That is what He instructs you to do so that hopefully you will use your intellect. (151) And that you do not go near the property of orphans before they reach maturity–except in a good way; that you give full measure and full weight with justice– We impose on no self any more than it can bear; that you are equitable when you speak–even if a near relative is concerned; and that you fulfill Allah’s contract. That is what He instructs you to do, so that hopefully you will pay heed. (152) This is My Path and it is straight, so follow it. Do not follow other ways or you will become cut off from His Way. That is what He instructs you to do, so that hopefully you will guard against evil. (153)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-An’am (The Cattle), Surah # 6: Ayah # 151-153)
Do not kill your children out of fear of being poor. We will provide for them and you. Killing them is a terrible mistake. (31)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al Isra’ (The Night Journey) or Bani Isra’il (The Children of Israel), Surah # 17: Ayah # 31)
You who believe! Some of your wives and children are an enemy to you, so be wary of them. But if you pardon and exonerate and forgive, Allah is Ever-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (14)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Clothing:
It is He Who produces gardens, both cultivated and wild, and palm-trees and crops of diverse kinds, and olives and pomegranates, both similar and dissimilar. Eat of their fruits when they bear fruit and pay their due on the day of their harvest, and do not be profligate. He does not love the profligate. (141)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-An’am (The Cattle), Surah # 6: Ayah # 141)
Children of Adam! Wear fine clothing in every mosque and eat and drink but do not be profligate. He does not love the profligate. (31)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Confirmation:
You who believe! If a deviator brings you a report, scrutinize it carefully in case you attack people in ignorance and so come to greatly regret what you have done. (6)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Hujurat (The Chambers), Surah # 49: Ayah # 6)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Contracts:
You who believe! When you take on a debt for a specified period, write it down. A writer should write it down between you justly. No writer should refuse to write; as Allah has taught him, so he should write. The one incurring the debt should dictate and should have fear of Allah his Lord and not reduce it in any way. If the person incurring the debt is incompetent or weak or unable to dictate, then his guardian should dictate for him justly. Two men among you should act as witnesses. But if there are not two men, then a man and two women with whom you are satisfied as witnesses; then if one of them forgets, the other can remind her. Witnesses should not refuse when they are called upon. Do not think it too trivial to write down, whether small or large, with the date that it falls due. Doing that is more just in Allah’s sight and more helpful when bearing witness and more likely to eliminate any doubt–unless it is an immediate transaction hand to hand, taken and given without delay. There is nothing wrong in your not writing that down. Call witnesses when you trade. Neither writer nor witness should be put under pressure. If you do that, it is deviancy on your part. Have fear of Allah and Allah will give you knowledge. Allah has knowledge of all things. (282)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Baqarah (The Heifer), Surah # 2: Ayah #282)
You who believe! Do not consume one another’s property by false means, but only by means of mutually agreed trade. And do not kill yourselves. Allah is Most Merciful to you. (29) As for anyone who does that out of enmity and wrongdoing, We will roast him in a Fire. That is an easy matter for Allah. (30) If you avoid the serious wrong actions you have been forbidden, We will erase your bad actions from you and admit you by a Gate of Honour. (31) Do not covet what Allah has given to some of you in preference to others–men have a portion of what they acquire and women have a portion of what they acquire; but ask Allah for His bounty. Allah has knowledge of all things. (32)
(Holy Quran, Surah An-Nisa’(Women), Surah # 4: Ayah #29-32)
You who believe! Fulfil your contracts. All livestock animals are lawful for you, except those that are recited to you now; but it is still not lawful to hunt while you are in the state of pilgrimage. Allah makes whatever judgements He wills. (1)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Ma’ida (The Table, The Table Spread), Surah # 5: Ayah # 1)
Fulfill your contracts. Contracts will be asked about. (34)

Corruption:
Call on your Lord humbly and secretly. He does not love those who overstep the limits. (55)

(Holy Quran, Surah Al-A’araf (The Heights), Surah # 7: Ayah # 55-56)
