| O Believers! When you enter in the transaction of any debt for a fixed period, then write it down. And a scribeshould write between you justly; and the scribe should not refuse to write as he has been taught by Allah, thenhe should write and let him on whom. The liability falls dictate and fear Allah Who is his Lord and leaves notbehind something out of the liability. Then again he on whom liability falls be of low understanding or be weakor be unable to dictate; then let his guardian dictate justly. And make two witnesses from among your men,then if two men be not available then a man and two women such witnesses, as you like, so that either of thetwo women errs in memory, then the other may remind to that one. And when the witnesses are called, theyshould not refuse to come. And do not take it as a burden, the liability be it small or big, write it down alongwith its fixed period. It is juster in the sight of Allah, in it the evidence will be more suitable and it is nearer to itthat you may not be in doubt; save a ready merchandise which you give or take from hand to hand, there is nosin on you, if you write it not. And when you trade, make witnesses. And neither any scribe be harmed nor thewitness (or neither the scribe do harm nor the witness). And if you do such then it would be yourinsubordination. And fear Allah and Allah teaches you and Allah knows everything. |
