Chapra underlines the importance of establishing justice for the development and progress of any society. Justice is the primary purpose for which God sent His Messengers to this world, he says quoting a verse from the Qur’an (57:25). Justice demands all individuals be treated with dignity and respect in keeping with their status as khalifahs or vicegerents of God. This, in turn, demands that all their basic needs be adequately satisfied and that there be equitable distribution of income and wealth, he points out. “Any society that does not create an environment for the realization of justice is bound to experience socio-political tensions, instability and decline.”
