26. Chapter: On injustice and the command to make restitution in cases of injustice Allah Almighty says, "Nor intercessor will the wrongdoers have, who could be listened to," (40:18) and the Almighty says, "For those that do wrong there is no helper." (22:71) 209. Abu Humayd 'Abdu'r-Rahman ibn Sa'd as-Sa'idi said, "The Prophet, (PBUH), appointed a man from al-Azd, called Ibn Al-Lutiyya to collect the zakat. When he arrived back, he said, 'This is for you and this was given as a gift to me.' The Messenger of Allah, (PBUH), stood on the minbar, praised and glorified Allah and then said, 'I appointed one of your men to be in charge of an activity for which Allah has made me responsible, and then he came and said, "This is for you and this was given as a gift to me." Why did he not sit in the house of his father or mother until his gift came to him if he is speaking the truth. By Allah, none of you will take anything without right but that he will meet Allah Almighty carrying it on the Day of Rising. I do not know if any of you will meet Allah carrying a camel which is grumbling, or a cow which is mooing, or a sheep which is bleating.' Then he raised his hands until the whites of his armpits could be seen, and said, 'O Allah! Have I conveyed it?' three times." [Agreed upon]
