The Holy Quran 38:22 — Surah Sad

Arabic text

إِذْ دَخَلُوا۟ عَلَىٰ دَاوُۥدَ فَفَزِعَ مِنْهُمْ ۖ قَالُوا۟ لَا تَخَفْ ۖ خَصْمَانِ بَغَىٰ بَعْضُنَا عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ فَٱحْكُم بَيْنَنَا بِٱلْحَقِّ وَلَا تُشْطِطْ وَٱهْدِنَآ إِلَىٰ سَوَآءِ ٱلصِّرَٰطِ

Translation

(The incident is worth mentioning) When they (the two disputants) entered (barged) in on Dawood عليه الصلاة والسلام, he became alarmed (worried) at their presence (because they had not entered conventionally, causing him to fear that they may have come with sinister motives). They said, "Do not be afraid. We are merely two disputants (who want you to resolve our argument). One of us has transgressed (done injustice) against the other, so judge between us with the truth. Do not be unjust towards us and guide us to the straight path (by directing us towards the correct course of action)."
