The issue of divine justice plays an important role in theology and the knowledge of God and the type of human worldview. In addition, Divine Justice is one of the important foundations for proving resurrection, reward and punishment in the hereafter, and in addition to the ideological and theoretical dimension, it also has educational and practical effects.
