Ayat No. 282

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْۤا اِذَا تَدَایَنْتُمْ بِدَیْنٍ اِلٰۤى اَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى فَاكْتُبُوْهُؕ-وَ لْیَكْتُبْ بَّیْنَكُمْ كَاتِبٌۢ بِالْعَدْلِ۪-وَ لَا یَاْبَ كَاتِبٌ اَنْ یَّكْتُبَ كَمَا عَلَّمَهُ اللّٰهُ فَلْیَكْتُبْۚ-وَ لْیُمْلِلِ الَّذِیْ عَلَیْهِ الْحَقُّ وَ لْیَتَّقِ اللّٰهَ رَبَّهٗ وَ لَا یَبْخَسْ مِنْهُ شَیْــٴًـاؕ-فَاِنْ كَانَ الَّذِیْ عَلَیْهِ الْحَقُّ سَفِیْهًا اَوْ ضَعِیْفًا اَوْ لَا یَسْتَطِیْعُ اَنْ یُّمِلَّ هُوَ فَلْیُمْلِلْ وَلِیُّهٗ بِالْعَدْلِؕ-وَ اسْتَشْهِدُوْا شَهِیْدَیْنِ مِنْ رِّجَالِكُمْۚ-فَاِنْ لَّمْ یَكُوْنَا رَجُلَیْنِ فَرَجُلٌ وَّ امْرَاَتٰنِ مِمَّنْ تَرْضَوْنَ مِنَ الشُّهَدَآءِ اَنْ تَضِلَّ اِحْدٰىهُمَا فَتُذَكِّرَ اِحْدٰىهُمَا الْاُخْرٰىؕ-وَ لَا یَاْبَ الشُّهَدَآءُ اِذَا مَا دُعُوْاؕ-وَ لَا تَسْــٴَـمُوْۤا اَنْ تَكْتُبُوْهُ صَغِیْرًا اَوْ كَبِیْرًا اِلٰۤى اَجَلِهٖؕ-ذٰلِكُمْ اَقْسَطُ عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ وَ اَقْوَمُ لِلشَّهَادَةِ وَ اَدْنٰۤى اَلَّا تَرْتَابُوْۤا اِلَّاۤ اَنْ تَكُوْنَ تِجَارَةً حَاضِرَةً تُدِیْرُوْنَهَا بَیْنَكُمْ فَلَیْسَ عَلَیْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ اَلَّا تَكْتُبُوْهَاؕ-وَ اَشْهِدُوْۤا اِذَا تَبَایَعْتُمْ۪-وَ لَا یُضَآرَّ كَاتِبٌ وَّ لَا شَهِیْدٌ۬ؕ-وَ اِنْ تَفْعَلُوْا فَاِنَّهٗ فُسُوْقٌۢ بِكُمْؕ-وَ اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَؕ-وَ یُعَلِّمُكُمُ اللّٰهُؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ بِكُلِّ شَیْءٍ عَلِیْمٌ(۲۸۲)

Translation

O you who have believed, when you contract a debt for a specified term, write it down. And let a scribe write [it] between you in justice. Let no scribe refuse to write as Allah has taught him. So let him write and let the one who has the obligation dictate. And let him fear Allah, his Lord, and not leave anything out of it. But if the one who has the obligation is of limited understanding or weak or unable to dictate himself, then let his guardian dictate in justice. And bring to witness two witnesses from among your men. And if there are not two men [available], then a man and two women from those whom you accept as witnesses - so that if one of the women errs, then the other can remind her. And let not the witnesses refuse when they are called upon. And do not be [too] weary to write it, whether it is small or large, for its [specified] term. That is more just in the sight of Allah and stronger as evidence and more likely to prevent doubt between you, except when it is an immediate transaction which you conduct among yourselves. For [then] there is no blame upon you if you do not write it. And take witnesses when you conclude a contract. Let no scribe be harmed or any witness. For if you do so, indeed, it is [grave] disobedience in you. And fear Allah . And Allah teaches you. And Allah is Knowing of all things.

Ayat No. 283

وَ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ عَلٰى سَفَرٍ وَّ لَمْ تَجِدُوْا كَاتِبًا فَرِهٰنٌ مَّقْبُوْضَةٌؕ-فَاِنْ اَمِنَ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا فَلْیُؤَدِّ الَّذِی اؤْتُمِنَ اَمَانَتَهٗ وَ لْیَتَّقِ اللّٰهَ رَبَّهٗؕ-وَ لَا تَكْتُمُوا الشَّهَادَةَؕ-وَ مَنْ یَّكْتُمْهَا فَاِنَّهٗۤ اٰثِمٌ قَلْبُهٗؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ عَلِیْمٌ۠(۲۸۳)

Translation

And if you are on a journey and cannot find a scribe, then a security deposit [should be] taken. And if one of you entrusts another, then let him who is entrusted discharge his trust [faithfully] and let him fear Allah, his Lord. And do not conceal testimony, for whoever conceals it - his heart is indeed sinful, and Allah is Knowing of what you do.
