The Islamic  Institute of Civil Justice in Canada LINKS TO TO SEVERAL ARTICLES ABOUT THE ISLAMIC INSTITUTE OF CIVIL JUSTICE O ye who believe! stand out firmly for Allah as witnesses to  fair dealing and let not the hatred of others to you make you  swerve to wrong and depart from justice. Be just: that is  next to Piety: and fear Allah for Allah is well-acquainted with  all that ye do.  707 [Qur'an 5.8 Yusuf Ali translation]  707 Comment by Yusuf Ali Follow (O men!) the revelation given unto you from your  Lord and follow not as friends or protectors other than Him.  Little it is ye remember of admonition. 991  [Qur'an 7.3 Yusuf Ali translation]  991 Comment by Yusuf Ali O ye who believe! fulfil (all) obligations . . . for Allah doth command according to His Will  and Plan. 682 685 [Qur'an 5.1 Yusuf Ali translation]  682 Comment by Yusuf Ali 685 Comment by Yusuf Ali        "Show me where it hurts," God said, and every cell in my body burst into tears before His tender eyes. -- Hafiz  ------------ A  poem by Rumi (from his Mathnawi): What is justice? Giving water to trees.         What is injustice? Giving water to thorns.         Justice consists in bestowing bounty in its proper place,         not on every root that will absorb water.  And so in the interest of watering trees and not thorns, or wetting everything that drinks water, and of course, in an effort to obey Allah's [God's] commands, we are striving to obey His commands and to also keep people informed of our activities towards establishing a Darul Qada for Muslims here in Canada where Muslims constitute a clear minority. Here are several links describing and outlining the issues as well as the Institute's activities.
