In the Quran

۞ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَأْمُرُ بِٱلْعَدْلِ وَٱلْإِحْسَٰنِ وَإِيتَآئِ ذِى ٱلْقُرْبَىٰ وَيَنْهَىٰ عَنِ ٱلْفَحْشَآءِ وَٱلْمُنكَرِ وَٱلْبَغْىِ ۚ يَعِظُكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ

خدا تم کو انصاف اور احسان کرنے اور رشتہ داروں کو (خرچ سے مدد) دینے کا حکم دیتا ہے۔ اور بےحیائی اور نامعقول کاموں سے اور سرکشی سے منع کرتا ہے (اور) تمہیں نصیحت کرتا ہے تاکہ تم یاد رکھو

Lo! Allah enjoineth justice and kindness, and giving to kinsfolk, and forbiddeth lewdness and abomination and wickedness. He exhorteth you in order that ye may take heed.
