معاصر سماجی اخلاقی انحطاط: انفرادی واجتماعی تربیت کا لائحہ عمل سیرت النبیﷺ کی روشنی میں

Abstract

Human society began with the descent of Prophet Adam and Eve (peace be upon him) on earth. Socialism is inherent in the nature of man. The character of individuals leaves a deep impact on society. History is an eyewitness that successful nations have always been those who have taken special care of the moral situation of their society. The success or failure of a society depends on the moral status of individuals.Seerat-un-Nabi (peace be upon him) is such a code of life, where we get a plan of action for individual and collective training to deal with all kinds of social and moral degradation of every era without any division. There are many factors to improve the morality of society, by taking into account which, the intellectual and moral training of the members of the society can be carried out. In our society, individuals should have a prophetic awareness of good behavior and a sense of responsibility. Generosity, justice, patience and tolerance, selflessness, careful conversation, the value of health and time, and harmony are decreasing day by day among people. The changing situation of the family system and the increasing misbehavior among the youth have become difficult challenges. For all this, there is a dire need for personality development and career counseling. In general, all kinds of prejudices, undue fusionism, showiness, adultery, indecency, lies, backbiting, suspicion, jealousy, malice and grudge are becoming common in society.In the light of the Seerat-un-Nabi (peace be upon him), there is a need to highlight the guidance derived from all the above points. In this article, it will be ensured that in the mirror of the Seerat-un-Nabi (peace be upon him), such points are discussed to create a comprehensive plan of action to get rid of contemporary social and moral degradation, the implementation of which can significantly help in developing a peaceful atmosphere in the society.
