ON THE SUBJECT OF 237 KINDNESS TOWARDS THOSE WHO YOUR RIGHT HAND OWNS Let us start by reading a verse from the Koran Allah, the Exalted says: "Worship Allah and do not associate anything with Him. Be kind to parents and near kinsman, to the orphans and to the needy, and to the neighbor who is your kindred, and to the neighbor at your far side, and the companion at your side, and to the destitute traveler, and to that which your right hands own. Allah does not love he who is proud and struts." 4:36 Koran
