إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُ بِالْعَدْلِ وَالْإِحْسَانِ وَإِيتَاءِ ذِي الْقُرْبَىٰ وَيَنْهَىٰ عَنِ الْفَحْشَاءِ وَالْمُنْكَرِ وَالْبَغْيِ ۚ يَعِظُكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ 

“Surely Allah enjoins the doing of justice and the doing of good (to others) and the giving to the kindred.”

Imam Baqir (a.s.) says concerning the above verse – العدل is Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.), andاحسان is Ameerul Momineen Ali ibn Abi Talib (a.s.) and وَإِيتَاءِ ذِي الْقُرْبَىٰ is Janabe Fatima Zahra (s.a.).1
