List Q&A

The human being is a social creature and in need of connecting with others in order to survive. Nevertheless, he should secure his prosperity and salvation in this world and the next by selecting a worthy friend and keeping the friendship moderate, away from all exceeding of the limits or breaking Allah's (swt) laws.
Love denotes the highest level of affection for a person or thing and can be categorized into three types:
1) True Love; a love that lays deep inside the heart and begins and ends with Allah. There are other terms that are used for this type of love, such as ‘The Great Love’.
2) Metaphoric Love: Love whose subject is things in this world created by the Lord, such as the love one may have for another person and his virtues, this love is also called ‘The Smaller Love’.
3) False love: This love originates from lust and carnal desires and allows the nafs ammarah to take control, and leads to the domination of lust over one’s mind, resulting in one’s corruption and decline.

Any love for other than Allah (swt) and the infallibles is false.
The ways to prevent such friendships or free oneself of them can be counted as the following:
a) Being careful when choosing friends and observing Islamic laws (gender-wise) in the process.
b) Paying attention to the negative outcomes of excessive friendships.
c) Strengthening one’s true love (love of Allah (swt)) because if this love grows in the individual, other loves which contradict the love of Allah will fade away.

As children of one father have a feeling of brotherhood because all are the off-springs of one father, likewise, the creatures of One God are bound to have brotherly feelings towards each other because they are the creation of One Creator.

As the last divine religion, the enlightening school of Islam is the most complete and inclusive religion of all. Therefore, in Islam social rules and regulations have been considered just like as personal rules. Islam believes there are principles and rules a Muslim should observe in his social life and interactions in a society and the same in the liabilities s/he has against others and society in which s/he lives.
Some of the most important liabilities of a citizen in Islamic society are as follows:
1- Not trampling peoples’ rights (Hagh Al Naas) and respecting other citizens’ rights.
The emphasis of Islam on respecting the right of neighbors and passengers in the street can be considered as some examples of this.
2- Caring for other people and helping them when they are in need at the time of disasters (natural or non - natural)
As Islam instructs a citizen of Islamic society should try to solve political, cultural, economical and … problems in his society and should not be indifferent to natural disasters like unexpected happenings and moral calamities and social disorders.
3- Respecting Islamic moralities in social interactions such as: being nice and good tempered, being humble, patient and tolerating people.
