The concept of culture in the Holy Qur'an

Abstract

The holy Qur'an, in its cultural line, is the greatest thing known by humanity throughout its prolonged history. It involves stable rules which are able to build up developed cultural society. The one, who concentrates on the history of Qur'anic culture and what it has achieved for humanity of the reasons of growth and factors of promotion, finds out the Qur'an is the first spring ( source) from which the cultural thought has acquired the growing and developing reasons. It is the sacred secret, moveable force, and continuous and standing invitation for cultural throughout generations. From what has been presented above, we sum up the following conclusions: 1. the holy Qur'an did and still does call for the cultural development in all the fields of life, progress and scientific promotion, so human being can be able to spread its cultural impression through it. 2. The image exposed by Glourious Qur'an of the fall of ancient cultures, is a remembrance to a human who wants to build up culture on material base and short understanding. 3. The holy Qur'an sets up the foundations of human culture through calling the way of mind. Also it calls for the wisdom way in every things. So the Qur'anic culture was considered the base of world culture .4. The holy Qur'an in its cultural growth involves a spiritual energy which makes it active force in the cultural society. 5. The culture, in its real meaning, is not a material progress, but it means moral values and spiritual development which are the real progressive foundation in constructing the culture while the giving up the values leads to the cultural fall.
