CARRIED ON THIS PAGE: seventeen āyāt, seven before and ten appended. 3:18 stays linked exactly with Names 29 and 63, and 60:8 with Name 79; 49:9, 72:14–15, 6:12, 4:40 and 5:42 unchanged in text. Appended: 21:47, the scales of justice, with the Arabic and English of Name 29 and linked exactly with it; 10:4, with the Arabic and English of Names 58 and 59 and linked exactly with both; and, new to the book, 10:47, 10:54, 3:21, 4:127 from wa-an taqūmū, 6:152 from wa-awfū l-kayla, 11:85, 4:3 to fa-wāḥidah, and 33:5 to ʻinda llāh. Every word of the root now stands in the book; the six not on this page are named below. The distinct verse count moves from 650 to 658.
NAMED HERE BUT NOT CARRIED ON THIS PAGE: 55:9, carried at Name 29; 4:135 and 5:8, carried at Name 29 and Name 63; 2:282, carried at Name 50; 57:25, carried at Name 53; 7:29, carried at Name 58 and Name 59; 17:35, 26:182 and 2:250, all carried at NO Name.
CORRECTED ON THE RECORD, THE COUNT: q-s-ṭ on the pointed Tanzil text (count_qst.py; asserted in build_N86.py): 27 returns, of which qisṭās 2 (17:35, 26:182) are not counted, aṭ-Ṭabarī recording it as the steelyard, the balance, or with Mujāhid justice in the Rūmī tongue. 25 words. QISṬ 15: ALLAH’S OWN DOING 5 (3:18, He upholds it; 10:4, He repays with it; 10:47 and 10:54, judgment between them with it; 21:47, the scales He sets); ALLAH COMMANDS IT 1 (7:29) and SENDS THE MESSENGERS so that people uphold it 1 (57:25); PEOPLE COMMANDED TO IT 7 (4:127, 4:135, 5:8, 5:42, 6:152, 11:85, 55:9); THOSE WHO COMMAND IT, KILLED 1 (3:21). AQSAṬ ʻINDA LLĀH 2 (2:282, 33:5).
THE FOURTH FORM 6, EVERY ONE OF PEOPLE: the verb 3 (4:3, 49:9, 60:8) and al-muqsiṭīn 3 (5:42, 49:9, 60:8), each in inna llāha yuḥibbu l-muqsiṭīn. AL-QĀSIṬŪN 2 (72:14 and 72:15), said by the jinn of themselves. The singular muqsiṭ, and so the Name, stands in no āyah. No look-alikes. THE SIX ḤADĪTH EDITIONS carry muqsiṭ in 14 records, 16 words: of Allah only in the lists at at-Tirmidhī 3507 and Ibn Mājah 3861; of ʻĪsā son of Maryam as a judge in seven (al-Bukhārī 2222 and 2476, Muslim 155a and 155b, at-Tirmidhī 2233, Ibn Mājah 4077 and 4078); of the ruler in two (Muslim 2865a, Abū Dāwūd 4843); of the equitable on pulpits of light in two (Muslim 1827, an-Nasāʼī 5379); and an-Nasāʼī 4733 quotes 5:42. No supplication in them addresses Allah by this Name. FOUND / CORRECTED / REMOVED, AS UNVERIFIED: THE PAGE’S GOVERNING FRAME, on the desc, MEDS 86 and POEMS 86: that the root’s own sense is deviation, qasaṭa, and that the fourth form’s hamza is privative, stripping the root of its meaning, so that al-Muqsiṭ is oppression with the oppression taken out. Aṭ-Ṭabarī at 3:18 gives qisṭ as justice and takes it from huwa muqsiṭ and qad aqsaṭa, and at 2:282 from aqsaṭa l-ḥākim; the Qurʼan says qisṭ, justice, fifteen times without the hamza and the qāsiṭūn twice. That the root’s own sense is deviation is STRUCK AS CONTRADICTED. The hamza as privative was seen only as quoted from Ibn Manẓūr, and there hedged as though it were; STRUCK AS UNCHECKED. MEDS 86 paragraph one and POEMS 86 stanza two rebuilt on the count and aṭ-Ṭabarī. POEMS 86 called the qāsiṭūn the men who do it, where in the Qurʼan they are jinn, and glossed qasaṭa as to take what is not yours, from no source read; corrected in both creative pages. THE REF said 4:40 is an occurrence of the root, and it has no word of it; it cited Jāmiʻ at-Tirmidhī 3507 and Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 2577a out of citation form; it set the Name apart from the broader ʻadl of Name 29 from no source; rebuilt on the count. THE ROOT FIELD had no letters and its gloss rested on the desc; now q-s-ṭ with aṭ-Ṭabarī’s gloss. THE DESC’s exact justice is the least He does and there is no standard above Him are reflections, not the entry’s evidence; removed from the desc, and the meditation keeps its own. THE QURʼAN NOTES carried capitals, live-read remarks, pointers to NAMES and MEDS and a web page reference (72:14–15, 6:12, 4:40, 5:42, 60:8). The 3:18 note said the Name’s Qurʼanic grounding is thinner than Al-ʻAdl’s and 3:18 the nearest the Qurʼan comes to it as a title, from no source; the 49:9 note called it the clearest place the root appears; the 6:12 note called kataba ʻalā nafsihi and ḥarramtu ʻalā nafsī the identical construction with grammar that matches exactly, where the verbs differ and none of the six commentators read at 6:12 brings in Muslim 2577a; the 4:40 note called 21:47 the verse this one answers; the 5:42 note wrote the blessing on the Prophet as a single Arabic letter. All rewritten from aṭ-Ṭabarī. THE STUDY NOTE HERE said 55:7–9 is carried nowhere; it is carried at Name 29. THE DUʻĀʼ NOTE said the prayer of Ṭālūt’s army is the register equity operates in when it is tested, from no source; struck, and its no transmitted supplication bounded to the six editions. THE ḤADĪTH PAGE: Muslim 1827’s English rendered al-muqsiṭīn the just and ar-Raḥmān the Most Merciful; now the equitable, as the three āyāt render the word, and ar-Raḥmān. Its note called al-muqsiṭīn the exact plural of the Name’s root; rewritten with the raising of the chain as Muslim gives it. Added al-Bukhārī 2222, muqsiṭ said of ʻĪsā son of Maryam as a judge, new to the book.
MEDS 86: its quotations of Muslim 2577a, 3:18, 21:47, 4:40, 49:9, 60:8 and Muslim 1827 were in words not the book’s, and the Muslim 1827 quotation carried the banned Most Merciful; set to the book’s English, 2577a and 21:47 as Name 29 prints them; the identical construction narrowed to the shared ʻalā nafs; This is why the Qurʼan can narrowed; people outside the community given as aṭ-Ṭabarī’s reading, of every faith; the close’s oppression upon Himself set to the report’s English.
POEMS 86: the same quotations set to the book’s English. CH 86 read; no change.
READ: the Tanzil text, every return in its verse. Aṭ-Ṭabarī, through the tafsir dataset, at 3:18, 72:14–15, 10:4, 10:47, 10:54, 21:47, 2:282, 17:35, 26:182, 5:42, 49:9, 60:8, 4:3, 6:12 and 4:40; at 6:12 also Ibn Kathīr, al-Qurṭubī, al-Baghawī, as-Saʻdī and Ibn ʻĀshūr, searched for Muslim 2577a and not finding it. Letter by letter with their grade rows: Muslim 1827 (no rows), an-Nasāʼī 5379, al-Bukhārī 2222, Muslim 155a and 155b, al-Bukhārī 4782 and 5064, at-Tirmidhī 3507, Ibn Mājah 3861, Abū Dāwūd 4843, and the six editions swept for muqsiṭ.
NOT READ: Ibn Fāris for q-s-ṭ in his own text, the Hawramani page returning a server error twice; his entry was seen only as quoted in secondary articles (two opposed meanings with one building; qisṭ justice, qasṭ injustice, qusūṭ turning from the truth), and nothing is rested on it. Ibn Manẓūr’s Lisān, seen only quoted. Al-Ghazālī’s al-Maqṣad al-Asnā.
OPEN: Ibn Fāris for q-s-ṭ in his own text (Shamela 21710, kitāb al-qāf). The Study Note’s status line, preferred by some over Al-ʻAdl, rests on Name 29’s ref, which gives the preference to Ibn ʻUthaymīn, not read at this pass (the status line and the ref no longer give him a preference: corrected in build 182, by the author’s decision, A38). MEDS 86’s justice is the floor and exact treatment the least you will receive, and POEMS 86’s the worst you will ever get from Him, are the author’s reflections on 4:40 and 21:47, and so is MEDS 86’s closing thought on what the scales will weigh. The English title The Equitable and the meditation’s title The Righting are the author’s. Name 29’s note on Muslim 1827 says some English renderings print Ibn ʻUmar (unread) and that two of its domains are unobserved; for a later reading of Name 29. Name 99’s Duʻāʼ note on 2:250 compares that Name’s root with the justice named here; for Name 99’s pass — since closed, as recorded below.
COHERENCE: 21:47 linked exactly with Name 29; 10:4 linked exactly with Names 58 and 59; 3:18 with Names 29 and 63 and 60:8 with Name 79 unchanged; Muslim 1827 another portion of Name 29’s. Name 45’s NAMED line repaired for 6:152 and Name 40’s for 21:47.
AUDIT, QURʼAN TEXT: 72:14–15 — verse-separator: full stop replaced by ; 60:8 — spelling/vowel: يَنْهَىٰكُمُ → يَنْهَاكُمُ, each re-checked against the Tanzil text.
AFTER NAME 99: Name 99’s Duʻāʼ note on 2:250 gives aṭ-Ṭabarī’s reading, send down patience upon us, and records that no supplication in the six editions addresses Allah as aṣ-ṣabūr; it no longer compares that Name’s root with the justice named here. AFTER THE CHAT-END AUDIT OF 1–99: the English of 6:12 drops its quotation marks and follows the book’s form for speech, Say: with no marks; the item asking whether this page should carry a cross-reference to Name 29 in its rootRelation is not closed and stands open for the author.
ON THE AUTHOR’S DECISION, THE CROSS-REFERENCE: the author has settled the question Name 29’s OPEN section raised. Al-Muqsiṭ and Al-ʻAdl now point at each other with the rootRelation status distinct-explicit, which is what Names 58 and 95 carry for the one other pair in the book that a reader needs told about — two Names of different roots that are taken for one another. q-s-ṭ and ʻ-d-l are unrelated and neither page pretends otherwise; what ties them is that those who leave Al-ʻAdl out of the ninety-nine put Al-Muqsiṭ in its place. The link is reciprocal, as every other relation in the book is, and the evidence sits in each ref rather than each desc, because both descs stand within four tokens of the ceiling. The ref here gains the clause that names the substitution and says the roots are unrelated. IN BUILD 145, BY THE AUTHOR’S DECISION (A15): the ref’s last sentence and the status line are narrowed to what the record holds — Ibn ʻUthaymīn, who leaves Al-ʻAdl out, puts this Name in its place, as Name 29’s ref gives him, and Ibn Mājah 3861’s list carries this Name and not Al-ʻAdl, where at-Tirmidhī 3507’s carries both; the cross-reference is unchanged, and al-Qawāʻid al-Muthlā is still not read.
FROM THE PHASE 2 READING: the note under al-Bukhārī 2222 completes the sweep with the report of Ibn ʻAbbās at an-Nasāʼī 4733, which quotes 5:42 and gives its occasion.
BY THE AUTHOR’S DECISIONS OF 2026-09-25, IN BUILD 182: Muslim 1827 takes Name 29’s English but for the equitable, this Name’s own word, which Name 29 now gives too (A23); the ref reads Ibn ʻUthaymīn leaves Al-ʻAdl out, and this Name is not in his list either, and the status line Verified — derived; in Ibn Mājah 3861’s list where Al-ʻAdl is not; the OPEN line says so in place (A38); MEDS 86 quotes the clause in the page’s English (A23).
