In the name of god the most gracious most mercyful
Bism Allah Alrahman Alraheem
"If you do judge, judge between them justly.God loves the just" Quran 5:42
The true justice described in the Quran commands man to behave justly, not discriminating between people, protecting others rights and not permitting violence, no matter the circumstances, to side with the oppressed against the oppressor and to help the needy. This justice calls for the rights of both parties to be pretected when reaching a decision in dispute, assessing all aspects of an incident, setting aside all prejudices, being objective, honest, tolerant, merciful and compassionate.
In the events one fails to display any of these characteristics or attaches greater importance to a particular one, then it becomes hard to exercise true justice. We must seek justice and set all personal feelings aside , we need to treat all parties with justice when they ask for our help. A person should incorporate the values of the Quran into ones soul in such a way that he may be able to consider the interests of others parties before his own and maintain justice, even if this harms his own interests
O You who believe! show integrity for the sake of god, bearing witness with justice. Do not let hatres for a people incite you into not being just. Be just. That is closer to faith. Heed god (alone).God is aware of what you do. Quran 5:8
As this verse suggests, God knows everything a man does, one who fears god and who is aware of that will have to account for his deeds on the Day of judgment, Any Muslim who knows the Quran knows this .
The Quran teaches all Muslims to put an extra effort to put their selfish desires aside and adopt the guidance of justice and compassion, tolerance and peace. God in the Quran gives a detailed description of the true justice in the Quran and informs us that all sorts of disagreements can be solved by the maintenance of justice, In a society made of righteous administrators and just peoples, it is obvious that all problems can be easily over come .
lets look at this verse which is so powerful in my eyes the verse reads
O Mankind! We created you from a male and female and made you into people and tribes so that you might come to know each other, the noblest among you in gods sight is the one of you who best performs his duty(towards mankind). God is all knowing , all aware. Quran 49:13
this verse clearly teaches that all humanity is one family and that the difference in races ect is not to differentiate who is better the who , but simply to get to know each other, the prophet ( pbuh) also said An Arab has no superiority over a none Arab ,nor a none Arab has superiority over an Arab,also a white has no superiority over a black, nor a black has superiority over a white except by piety and good actions.
There are so many more verses and examples of the teachings of Islam to its followers to uphold justice, stand up for the oppressed, to speak the truth even against ones own family and relatives.

In the name of (Thee One God) Allah, the most compassionate, most merciful O mankind! We created you from a single soul, male and female, and made you into nations and tribes, so that you may come to know one another. Truly, the most honored of you in God's sight is the greatest of you in piety. Allah is All-Knowing, All-Aware. -- 49:13
Ayah/Verse to Remember
In the name of God, most compassionate, most merciful. Invite to the Way of your Lord with wisdom and fair preaching, and argue with them in the best manners. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided."
(Al-Quran 16:125)

Beheadings in Islam
There are two mentioning of beheadings in the Quran.
Chapter 47:3 says “When you encounter the unbelievers on the battlefield, strike off their heads until you have crushed them completely; then bind the [surviving] prisoners tightly.” Chapter 8:12 states “I will cast dread into the hearts of the unbelievers. Strike off their heads, then, and strike off all of their fingertips.
To say Islam and the Quran support and commands Muslims to behead unbelievers is really out of tone with the Quranic teachings in regards to innocent people as is none militant ones.
Accourding to Islam, humanity is the result of Adam and Eve, so lets see what the Quran speaks in regards to the children of Adam and Eve.
17: 70 And indeed Allah (God) has honored the Children of Adam, and Allah (God) carried them on land and sea, and has provided them with At-Taiyibât (lawful good things), and has preferred them above many of those whom He has created with a marked preference.
The Quran clearly commands in verse in Chapter 2:190
Fight in the Cause of Allah, those who fight you, but Dont transgress. Allah DOESN'T LOVE transgressors.
Lets bring this very important verse to light Chapter 76:8-11
And they feed, for the love of Allah, the indigent, the orphan, and THE CAPTIVE OF WAR.
Say( Muslims ) : We only fear a day of distressful wrath from the side of our lord. Lo, Allah will deliver them from the evil of that day, and will shed over them a light of beauty and joy.
Chapter.2:112
But FORGIVE THEM, and overlook (their misdeeds). Verily, Allah loves the good¬doers.
Chapter 7:199 Show forgiveness, enjoin what is good, and TURN AWAY FROM the FOOLISH (i.e. don't punish them).
An Example of Allah's Mercy in the Quran
Say: 'O My servants who have transgressed against your own souls: do not despair of God's mercy,
for God forgives all sins. It is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful.'
Qur'an (39:53)
More Quranic verses in regards to mercy and love>
Islam condemns violence against the innocent, and the QURANIC teachings are much deeper then two verses, that all people will be held accountable for their actions.
Life and Death are STRICTLY given by Allah and ONLY Allah has the right to decide who stays and who goes.
Islam orders Muslims to fight those who transgress against them and never supported war through force.
Islam means to submit to Allah and Allah teaches us in the Quran to submit to Allah's will and to try and not force the issue.
You can look at all the verses you want, but over all the message is clear and killing unjustly will have its punishment according to Allah, and a very strict law to break when it comes to the value of human beings.
The Quran also makes a clear case for the prophet Mohammad (pbuh) as well
And it was by God`s grace that thou [O Prophet] didst deal gently with thy followers: for if thou hadst been
harsh and hard of heart, they would indeed have broken away from thee` (3:159).
How does the Quran command Muslims to spread Islam truly ?
`Call thou [all mankind] unto thy Sustainer`s path with wisdom and goodly exhortation, and argue with them in the most kindly manner`
(16:125).
This might blow the minds of Muslim critics at HOW IMPORTANT MERCY IS TO ALLAH, in this verse here clearly Allah stats in chapter 6:12 He [Allah] has inscribed [prescribed] for himself (the rule of) mercy.
Its of extreme importance of the act of mercy in Islam, because Allah tells us in this verse that Mercy is inscribed into his law and its a law on ALLAHS to show MERCY to all creation,
