Islam has been also a nonesuch example of liberality and solidarity.
Islam has been also a nonesuch example of liberality and solidarity. Muslim individual must take interests in the social affairs and benefits and must look kindly at the miserable.
The Prophet (S) said: “He that begins a day without taking an interest in the affairs of the Muslims is not one of them[^4].” “The creatures are subjects of Allah; therefore, the most favorable in the sight of Allah are those who best benefit His subjects and please His household[^5].” Rights of the Islamic Society Individuals are the bricks of society whose happiness is achieved when they are pleased and granted their social rights.
In the same way, social depression occurs when they are depressed and deprived of their rights: 1. Right of Life In the sight of Islam, right of life is natural and sacred and it is obligatory to be guarded. Violence of this right is a big crime the punishment of which is immortal abiding in Hell: “The punishment for one who purposely slays a believer will be to live in hell fire forever.
(4:93)” Not only has Islam settled for the immortal abiding in Hell as punishment for murderers, but also has enacted the retaliation for murder and the undergoing of blood money for unintentional killing so as to guard Muslims’ souls and stop crimes of homicide: “People of understanding, the law of the death penalty as retaliation grants you life so that perhaps you will have fear of Allah. (2:179)” Moreover, man is not permitted to put an end to his own life by committing suicide.
He must protect and guard his soul against dangers and harms: “Do not push yourselves into perdition. (2:195)” In the field of sacredness of souls, Islam has reached the climax when it forbade killing the fetuses by abortion and imposed on those who commit such crimes to undergo the identified blood money. 2. Right of Dignity God has honored the faithful believer and covered him with colors of respect and support.
He therefore has respected the believer’s dignity, guarded his honor, forbidden any sort of violence to his property or soul, guaranteed his right, conferred upon him with favors, and declared His divine care for him in this life as well as the life to come: “To those who have said, "Allah is our Lord," and who have remained steadfast to their belief, the angels will descend saying, "Do not be afraid or grieved. Receive the glad news of the Paradise which was promised to you.
