Explanatory Note

Along with raising the sky high, God has 'set the balance' of truth. This is well established so as to define the values of things, events and people. Thus, values are measured by the balance of truth, not according to different, ignorant desires or personal preferences. Moreover, this balance is set within human nature and in the divine message advocated by all God's messengers and defined in the Qur'an. He has set the balance, "so that you may not exceed the balance," going too high or too low. "Weigh, therefore, with justice and do not fall short in the balance," so as to ensure justice to all in all situations.
