Injury with justice… that would mean an eye for an eye, no?
Salaam Miss Specs, sorry I missed your post.
y’know it’s always difficult to answer on behalf of the great quoters. But being Confucius, we may well know that ‘justice’ here has a ‘lawfullness’ connotation.
Thus they said whatever image we see (or read) actually comes from the reflections of what’s in our heart and a difference of opinion is truthfully, a blessing from the Almighty.
Salaam
