He was just and ruled according to this principle. Yet, he was not afraid of being blamed because of applying justice. He did not flatter any one for his rank, money or his lineage. on the contrary, the Prophet considered the weak strong till he restores for them their rights and he considered the powerful weak till he took from them the due rights.

He was just and supporter of rightness, to the extent that he did not even favor the dearest people to him. It happened that an eminent woman from the family of Makhzoum - a great family in Makkah at that time - stole, so she deserved a punishment for her crime. Her family went to one of the Prophet’s close companions to ask the Prophet for forgiveness. When Muhammad heard the request of his dearest companion to forgive this woman, he became angry because of breaking the holiness of justice.
