Islamic Ethics:

š The Arabic term akhlaq (singular,khuluq) is laterally translated into English as “ethics
š ”Khuluq" in the Quran, two times,(al Shuara: 137, and al-Qalam: 4).
š According to the Muslim exegete of the Quran, al Qurtubi (d.1273 C.E) "the word
khuluq alAwalin as mentioned in the Qur‟an
means: “their ancient customs and it includes religion, character, ideology, or doctrine."
š Another Arabic word which is employed as a literally interchangeable to akhlaq is
adab. Adab means manner, attitude, behaviorv and the etiquette of putting things in
their proper place.
Source and origin of Islamic ethics

š In Islam, while the Qur‟an lays the foundation of ethical concepts and standards, the
sunnah of the Prophet (s.a.w) contains the actual
practices of such concepts. For instant, in chapter 68 of the Qur‟an, verse 4, the
Qur‟an states that: “You (Prophet Muhammad) are on an exalted
standard of character”.
š When Aishah (r.a), the spouse of the Prophet (s.a.w), was asked about the
personality (character) of the Prophet (s.a.w), she
replied: “it was a reflection of the Noble Qur‟an”
Good deeds are the foundations of good
morals.
š according to the Qur‟an, belief in
Allah humility, better communications and
continuation of good deeds are the foundations of good morals.
š The Qur‟an states that the best person is the person who upholds moral
foundations and invites others to practice these values.

Furthermore, the Qur‟an associates good morality with
fair and compassionate behaviour towards
parents, kinsfolk, orphans, those in need, neighbours, while arrogance and
vainglory have no place in the Islamic morality.

The Qur‟an prescribes the behaviour of
being truthful in speech and actions. Truthful
actions and sincerity illuminates the heart and
improves the conditions of the mind, which
eventually enhances the person‟s outlook and worldview.
