This includes refraining from reading another person’s writings, letters, or personal notes without their permission. Scholars have discussed this issue extensively, drawing evidence from hadith, the practice of the Salaf, and juristic principles. Foundational Evidence from the Hadith The foundation for this etiquette is based on the narration attributed to the Prophet ﷺ: “Whoever looks into his brother’s writing without his permission is as though he is looking into Hellfire.” This narration has been reported from Ibn ʿAbbās (رضي الله عنهما) through various chains.

Major Commandments in the Holy Quran and Similarity in Other Scriptures

The other day I was reading the Holy Quran I came across the commandments given to Muslims in Chapter 17 (Surah Israa), I found that similar commandments are also found in the Old and New Testaments (the 10 commandments and the seven deadly sins), and even in non-Semitic religions, i.e., Buddhism. 

A man reciting the holy Quran

People who have read those will find the similarity here (as the Holy Quran confirms what is in the previous books and makes corrections where necessary). 

  • Don’t associate any partner with God. (Chapter: Surah Israa 17, Verse 22)
  • Worship Him alone. (Chapter 17, Verse 23)
  • Respect and Good behavior towards parents. (17, 23)
  • Keeping the ties of Kinship. (17, 26)
  • Avoiding wasting wealth. (17, 26)
  • Don’t kill your children out of fear of poverty. (17, 31)
  • Don’t kill the innocent. (17, 33)
  • Don’t devour the wealth of orphans/widows. (17, 34)
  • Fulfill obligations and promises. (17, 34)
  • Weighing and measuring justly/avoid cheating and dishonesty. (17, 35)
  • Don’t act on a matter that you do not know (lying, false witness, etc.) (17, 36)
  • Don’t be arrogant. (17, 37)
