The effect of the Quranic story on Ethics

Abstract

The Quran is the read universe, and it contains all what mankind need in their life such as administrative, theological and worship systems. Among those system and the one which the Quran has made it integral with Faith is the ethical system. Many verses in the Quran urges about good ethics and rejects bad ethics. I have rather preferred to study the effect of the Quranic story on the ethics because the stories have a different effect from the direct commands. When a Muslim reads a Quranic story, he gets engaged with its events, pictures its scenes, and gets affected by its results. Therefore, there is no doubt that he will be affected by the ethical events that happened within the scenes of the Quranic story. Hence the idea of writing this paper in which I deal with (the effect of the Quranic story on ethics) in which I dealt with some of the scenes of the Quranic stories and not all the details of the story. Because there is no space to deal with all the events of the story here. Most of the ethical scenes that I dealt with came from the story itself. Such scenes made explicit or hidden reference to the moral aspect. In any way, these scenes has a great effect on the reader heart. Most of the ethical scenes that I have found was in the stories of Joseph and Moses (Peace be upon them). After them, was the story of Ibrahim. I have not found in all of prophets’ stories who are mentioned in the Quran incidents or scenes that has an effect in the ethical aspect. It suffices us that we have roamed between the lines of the Quranic stories and extracted some valuable jewels
