In Islam, society is to be a united body where conflict and ranking based on social class has no place.

It consists of people having different skills and capabilities who at the same time are connected, exchange services, and collaborate with one another. Every one of these members becomes complete and grows through interaction and exchange with others. Society is made from them and for them. Thus, it is a model of a human being and not just made of one of a human’s dimensions. It is not a model of one individual or social dimension.

If only one of his dimensions improved, that dimension would become a means of dominance and considerable pressure over one specific dimension and would lead to the distortion of human reality and disfiguring of his real face. Society is a system formed of different kinds of people. In an Islamic society, no one has any advantage over another. No class has superiority over another, no race has any advantage over another, and no group has any advantage over another.

Even the majority has no advantage over the minority or vice versa; society is simply for the human being. Such a society is built for all people and it is not set up such that only some of the man’s dimensions and potentials grow. This society pays attention neither just to individualism nor to social issues only such that it gives up on individual issues. It neither ignores the body nor the soul. Therefore, there is no monasticism in Islam. Society is equivalent to all people.

It enables the improvement of their skills and provides the opportunity for everyone’s positive capabilities to develop.
