And those who keep their treaty when
they make one, and the patient in tribulation and adversity and time of
stress. Such are they who are sincere. Such are the Allah-fearing.
S: It is not righteousness that you turn your faces towards the East and
the West, but righteousness is this that one should believe in Allah
and the last day and the angels and the Book and the prophets, and give
away wealth out of love for Him to the near of kin and the orphans and
the needy and the wayfarer and the beggars and for (the emancipation
of) the captives, and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate; and the
performers of their promise when they make a promise, and the patient
in distress and affliction and in time of conflicts-- these are they
who are true (to themselves) and these are they who guard (against
evil).

Y: O ye who believe! the law of equality is prescribed to you in cases
of murder: the free for the free, the slave for the slave, the woman
for the woman. But if any remission is made by the brother of the
slain, then grant any reasonable demand, and compensate him with
handsome gratitude, this is a concession and a Mercy from your Lord.
After this whoever exceeds the limits shall be in grave penalty.
P: O ye who believe! Retaliation is prescribed for you in the matter of
the murdered; the freeman for the freeman, and the slave for the slave,
and the female for the female.
