An Applied Example If the researcher, for example, wants to discover an Islamic theory on the philosophy of ethics and express views on moral actions, he must collect the suitable information and conform to the proper method of moral research, which differs, in many respects, from chemical and physical research. Therefore, the researcher should submit to some steps, as follows: A.

The induction of `Islamic Texts' should work on the basis of the Qur'an and sunnah; likewise, be classified by the researcher, according to their characteristics, as well as, their joint and implicit target within the complete principles. It is, also, necessary for the researcher, in this regard, to view the Islamic and non-Islamic studies by submitting all the said studies to evaluation. B.

The induction of human nature and man's psychological status should be undertaken by analyzing his primitive formation and the history of his life by examining his daily social practices, as well as, studying all the conditions involved and taking into consideration the external impacts that influence his behaviour, such as; the effects of environment, and the bodily chemical changes. C.

The reseacher can discover the practical values of human ethics through the experience of mankind, by depending on the induction method via social observation and by studying statistics on the problems, as well as, the social phenomena.

To make a clear contrast, a study of the social status of two human societies can be performed and this being: (first) that society which believes in the ethics and abides by them, as in an Islamic society, and (second) that which does not believe in ethics and turns away from them; such as is the case in both Marxist and Capitalist societies. D.

By linking ethics and general philosophy together, in full view of the Islamic mission, with the believable concepts, as their given view is about the human being, life, divine justice and wisdom, in just the same way as is the hidden, primitive, psychological relation between man and his Creator, which is a tie of unconscious trend towards absolute divine perfection, we can, for instance, specify some of the governing bases of the moral theory, in Islam, as follows: Ethics are deeply affected by heritage, environment, education and acquisition.

There are joint human psychological traits among individuals of the human species, as a whole, which typify the internal tendency in man to commit good or bad, virture or vice, etc.
