AN ACT OF INJUSTICE

 


AN ACT OF INJUSTICE 


Kindness is only kindness when it does not involve doing a forbidden act or neglecting to do an obligatory one. 


If a kindness involves abandoning justice, it becomes oppression. This is why showing favouritism towards some children above others and to some wives above others is forbidden even though it might be kindness towards the one being preferred and favoured, because it is an act of injustice.
