The Children of Israel
IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE DISPENSER OF GRACE
[17:35]
And give full measure whenever you measure, and weigh with a balance that is true: this will be [for your own] good, and best in the end.


* v.35 : Lit., “straight” (mustaqīm) – a term which in the Qur’ān has invariably a spiritual or moral connotation. Hence, as in the similar phrase in 6:152, the above injunction applies not merely to commercial transactions but to all dealings between man and man.
