Basis for social system in Islam

Basis for social system in Islam

Outline:

1. Equality.
2. Fraternity.
3. Wedding Bond.

Equality:

The first and most important basis of an Islamic society is that all the human being are from the same pedigree. All the mankind is the children of Adam A.S. Colour,language,forefathers,tribes, brotherhood, countries and other natural thing are only for the sake of introduction with each other. But to make these differences the basis of distinction between each other is totally wrong.

Because at all levels. In Qur'an it is said:

O mankind! Lo! We have created you male and female and have made you nations and tribes that ye may know one another, Lo! the noblest of you, in the sight of Allah, is the best in conduct. Lo! Allah is knower, Aware. (49:13)

 At another place in the Qur'an it said:

O mankind! Be careful of duty to your Lord Who created you from a single soul and from it created its mate and from them twain hath spread abroad a multitude of men and women. (4:1)

 The theory of Oneness of God not only puts forward the concept of single God but also gives the idea of unity among mankind. All the men are the imperative parts of this universe. If all the system of the universe is strongly harmonious manner. They must adopt a universal style of life. In Islam every one has to play his role fully.

2.Fraternity.

All the Muslims are brothers for each other. The relation due to religion is considered to be the greatest of all. Qur'an says:

The believers are not else brothers. (49:10)

At another place in Quran it is Said:

And hold fast, all of you together to the cable of Allah and do not separate. (3:103)

In the same process traditions and moral regulations build an Islamic society in which a man finds his relation with others on the same basis. Inverses to it the people who refuse to adopt this way of life do not find their place in such society but on the human basis they can have their due share in Islamic society.

3. Wedding Bond.

Men and women are two different pillars of a society. Both have their own cults and personality. Both take part in building of social set-up. There is equality between men and women on the legal basis. Both men and women have some rights and responsibilities in this regard. In a family structure male member is considered leader and supervisor of the affairs..

Generally every man and woman are just like brother and sister and they have no right to be one but marriage is the only way through which they can get united and share each other's problems. This is the very legal method by which they are valid for each other. Here lay the basis of separate family.
