![What does Quran says on doing
Business
Surah Al-Baqarah Ayat 282
O you who have believed, when you contract a debt for a specified term, write it down. And
let a scribe write [it] between you in justice. Let no scribe refuse to write as Allah has taught
him. So let him write and let the one who has the obligation dictate. And let him fear Allah,
his Lord, and not leave anything out of it. But if the one who has the obligation is of limited
understanding or weak or unable to dictate himself, then let his guardian dictate in justice.
And bring to witness two witnesses from among your men. And if there are not two men
[available], then a man and two women from those whom you accept as witnesses – so that if
one of the women errs, then the other can remind her. And let not the witnesses refuse when
they are called upon. And do not be [too] weary to write it, whether it is small or large, for its
[specified] term. That is more just in the sight of Allah and stronger as evidence and more
likely to prevent doubt between you, except when it is an immediate transaction which you
conduct among yourselves. For [then] there is no blame upon you if you do not write it. And
take witnesses when you conclude a contract. Let no scribe be harmed or any witness. For if
you do so, indeed, it is [grave] disobedience in you. And fear Allah. And Allah teaches you.
And Allah is Knowing of all things.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/week1-class1and2-250515185521-67401506/85/Professional-Practices-Introauction-to-Game-Development-20-320.jpg)

And O my people, give full measure and weight in justice and do not deprive the
