“For, according to the teachings of Islam, moral knowledge automatically forces moral responsibility upon man. A mere Platonic discernment between Right and Wrong, without the urge to promote Right and to destroy Wrong, is a gross immorality in itself, for morality lives and dies with the human endeavour to establish its victory upon earth.” MenHumansEarthDiesForceResponsibilityMoralTeachingVictoryMoralityMereIslamUrgesGrossDiscernmentEndeavourImmoralityPlatonicMoral Responsibility Book:Islam at the Crossroads Source: Islam at the Crossroads
“The religious urge in man is not a mere passing phase in the history of his spiritual development, but the ultimate source of all his ethical thought and all his concepts of morality; not the outcome of primitive credulity which a more "enlightened" age could outgrow, but the only answer to a real, basic need of man at all times and in all environments. In another word, it is an instinct.” MenNeedsRealAgeSpiritualHumanityReligiousAnswersEnvironmentSourceDevelopmentMoralityConceptsUltimateMereInstinctPassingPassingsAll TimeOutcomesEnlightenedUrgesEthicalPrimitivePhasesSpiritual DevelopmentCredulityBasic Needs Book:The Principles of State and Government in Islam Source: The Principles of State and Government in Islam
