Yeah have fun asserting that justice is incompatible with mercy. I don't agree with that. If a judge is just and instructs the right decision for any situation, it doesn't undermine his justness if he decides not to punish someone for some petty offense like disorderly conduct.

Again, this "rule" applies to the articles of a religion as they are asserted by the religion itself. If there is a verse in the Qur'an that says "And Allah is not just" then we are done, but there isn't. Now of course you think Islam contains unjust instructions, despite being presented as just by proponents of Islam, but this is another discussion entirely. We can only rule out religions which "officially" present their deity as unjust.
