وَلاَ تَأْكُلُوۤاْ أَمْوَالَكُمْ بَيْنَكُمْ بِٱلْبَاطِلِ وَتُدْلُواْ بِهَا إِلَى ٱلْحُكَّامِ لِتَأْكُلُواْ فَرِيقاً مِّنْ أَمْوَالِ ٱلنَّاسِ بِٱلإِثْمِ وَأَنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
١٨٨
-Al-Baqarah ( البقرة )

Al Qushairi Tafsir

[2:188] Consume not your goods between you in deception, and proffer them to the judges, that you may consume a portion of other people's goods in sin while you are aware.
When you turn to created beings in judging things, know that God is watching over you and His knowledge encompasses you. So situate yourself with shyness before the Real (s). Created beings know externals (ẓawāhir) but the Real (swt) is the One Who rules over the inner secrets of hearts (sarāÌir).
