Despite my repeated requests, this seller is unwilling to accept it.” On his part, the seller said: ”(I cannot do so for) I had sold the land to the purchaser together with everything that existed within it.” Conducting his investigations, the judge came to realize that the seller had a son while the purchaser had a daughter and so he ruled: “The purchaser's daughter should be married to the seller's son and the treasure should be given to them, and in this manner, put an end to their dispute.”[^3] Impartiality Between Children Once, a lady entered the house of Aishah, the wife of the Noble Prophet (s.a.w), with her two children.

'aishah presented three dates to the lady, who gave one date to each of her two children and taking the third date she halved it and once again distributed it evenly amongst them. When the Noble Prophet (s.a.w) returned, 'aishah narrated the episode to him whereupon he (s.a.w) said: “Did the lady's act leave you astonished?

Due to her fairness and even-handedness, Allah shall place her in Paradise.” It has also been reported that once, a father arrived in the presence of the Noble Prophet (s.a.w) accompanied by his two children. In his (s.a.w) presence he kissed one child and ignored the other.

He called his ministers and said: “I have fallen sick and have lost my hearing, and then began weeping profusely.” They consoled him saying: “Although your hearing has weakened, Allah shall grant you a long life due to your justice and equity.” The king said: “You are in error and you reflect on something which is away from reality. I do not weep for my hearing, for a learned one knows that all the limbs and organs shall eventually perish.
