The Qur’an For All Humanity
Reformed Behaviour
~ 21 ~
REFORMED BEHAVIOUR
Do not corrupt the earth after it has been purged of
evil. Pray to Him with fear and hope. His mercy is
within reach of the righteous,
(The Qur’an 7:56)
World reform means the re-establishment of order
by God on this earth. Man has to lead his life in
accordance with this God-established system. It is
not lawful for him to adopt any path other than this.
Human activity was initially designed by God to
create no excessive clamour. Here God has arranged
for breathing in fresh air, so man must not indulge
in activities which may pollute the atmosphere. The
vegetables and animals flourish in their separate
spheres, so man should remain in his own sphere,
instead of encroaching on those of other creatures.
Since everything is functioning in a planned way,
man should, moreover, refrain from adopting any
such emotional, hasty course as will lead to social
disruption.
