We put the commands of God and the Sunnah of His messenger above all else including our own monetary gains. We understand that this world is a world of rights, and there are two types of them: There are God’s rights upon us and there are people’s rights upon us. To help us fulfill those rights we meticulously and carefully selected the following values to live by.
