لَیْسَ الْبِرَّ اَنْ تُوَلُّوْا وُجُوْهَكُمْ قِبَلَ الْمَشْرِقِ وَ الْمَغْرِبِ وَ لٰكِنَّ الْبِرَّ مَنْ اٰمَنَ بِاللّٰهِ وَ الْیَوْمِ الْاٰخِرِ وَ الْمَلٰٓىٕكَةِ وَ الْكِتٰبِ وَ النَّبِیّٖنَۚ-وَ اٰتَى الْمَالَ عَلٰى حُبِّهٖ ذَوِی الْقُرْبٰى وَ الْیَتٰمٰى وَ الْمَسٰكِیْنَ وَ ابْنَ السَّبِیْلِۙ-وَ السَّآىٕلِیْنَ وَ فِی الرِّقَابِۚ-وَ اَقَامَ الصَّلٰوةَ وَ اٰتَى الزَّكٰوةَۚ-وَ الْمُوْفُوْنَ بِعَهْدِهِمْ اِذَا عٰهَدُوْاۚ-وَ الصّٰبِرِیْنَ فِی الْبَاْسَآءِ وَ الضَّرَّآءِ وَ حِیْنَ الْبَاْسِؕ-اُولٰٓىٕكَ الَّذِیْنَ صَدَقُوْاؕ-وَ اُولٰٓىٕكَ هُمُ الْمُتَّقُوْنَ(۱۷۷)

Translation

Righteousness is not that you turn your faces toward the east or the west, but [true] righteousness is [in] one who believes in Allah, the Last Day, the angels, the Book, and the prophets and gives wealth, in spite of love for it, to relatives, orphans, the needy, the traveler, those who ask [for help], and for freeing slaves; [and who] establishes prayer and gives zakah; [those who] fulfill their promise when they promise; and [those who] are patient in poverty and hardship and during battle. Those are the ones who have been true, and it is those who are the righteous.

Ayat No. 178

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا كُتِبَ عَلَیْكُمُ الْقِصَاصُ فِی الْقَتْلٰىؕ-اَلْحُرُّ بِالْحُرِّ وَ الْعَبْدُ بِالْعَبْدِ وَ الْاُنْثٰى بِالْاُنْثٰىؕ-فَمَنْ عُفِیَ لَهٗ مِنْ اَخِیْهِ شَیْءٌ فَاتِّبَاعٌۢ بِالْمَعْرُوْفِ وَ اَدَآءٌ اِلَیْهِ بِاِحْسَانٍؕ-ذٰلِكَ تَخْفِیْفٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّكُمْ وَ رَحْمَةٌؕ-فَمَنِ اعْتَدٰى بَعْدَ ذٰلِكَ فَلَهٗ عَذَابٌ اَلِیْمٌ(۱۷۸)

Translation

O you who have believed, prescribed for you is legal retribution for those murdered - the free for the free, the slave for the slave, and the female for the female. But whoever overlooks from his brother anything, then there should be a suitable follow-up and payment to him with good conduct. This is an alleviation from your Lord and a mercy. But whoever transgresses after that will have a painful punishment.

Translation

And there is for you in legal retribution [saving of] life, O you [people] of understanding, that you may become righteous.

كُتِبَ عَلَیْكُمْ اِذَا حَضَرَ اَحَدَكُمُ الْمَوْتُ اِنْ تَرَكَ خَیْرَاﰳ -ۖۚ - الْوَصِیَّةُ لِلْوَالِدَیْنِ وَ الْاَقْرَبِیْنَ بِالْمَعْرُوْفِ-ۚ--حَقًّا عَلَى الْمُتَّقِیْنَؕ(۱۸۰)
