How To Behave In Society –Lesson From Qur’an

A strong society or community can be built only through the best practice of good conducts between its members.

 Quran has emphasised on this matter in many of its verses. Some are here for reflection. Allah the almighty says in the Holy Quran (49:10-13)

“The believers are but brothers, so make settlement between your brothers. And fear Allah that you may receive mercy

” “O you who have believed, let not a people scoff [another] people; perhaps they may be better than them; nor let women scoff [other] women; perhaps they may be better than them”

 “And do not insult one another and do not call each other by [offensive] nicknames. What a bad name is the name of disobedience after [one's] faith. And whoever does not repent - then it is those who are the wrongdoers”

 “O you who have believed, avoid most suspicions. Indeed, some suspicion is a sin. And do not look out for faults or backbite each other. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his brother when dead? You would hate it. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is accepting of repentance and Merciful”
 “O mankind, indeed we have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another. Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you.

Indeed, Allah is Knowing and Acquainted” Allah also says (17:36-37); “And do not follow that of which you have no knowledge. Indeed, the hearing, the sight and the heart - about all those [one] will be questioned”


“And do not walk upon the earth proudly. Indeed, you will never scratch the earth [apart], and you will never reach the mountains in height!” He also says (31:18-19) “And do not turn your cheek [in contempt] toward people and do not walk through the earth exultantly. Indeed, Allah does not like everyone who is arrogant and boastful” “And be moderate in your walks and lower your voice; indeed, the most unpleasant of sounds is the voice of donkeys."
