Description
Description
The social and human responsibility of the Muslim is an essential work by Cheikh Raslan that addresses a central and often neglected topic: the impact of faith on the behavior and social commitments of the believer. The author clearly demonstrates that spirituality in Islam is not limited to personal acts of worship, but also encompasses behavior towards others, justice, respect for rights, and kindness towards the most vulnerable.
An obligation prescribed in the Quran and the Sunnah
Rooted in the fundamental texts of Islam, this responsibility is a religious duty. Allah has commanded believers to act with fairness, establish justice, and support their brothers and sisters in need. The Messenger ﷺ emphasized the importance of solidarity, brotherhood, and good behavior, essential pillars of a balanced society.
Zakat: pillar of social justice
One of the major aspects of this responsibility is zakat, the obligatory alms that every Muslim must give if they are able. It allows for a redistribution of wealth and helps to reduce social inequalities, while purifying the believer's possessions. Sheikh Raslan emphasizes that generosity in Islam does not stop at legal obligation, but extends to all aspects of social life.
Justice and fairness: fundamental values
The author also emphasizes the value of justice, highlighting that the Prophet ﷺ was known, even before the revelation, for his honesty and impartiality. To be just is to respect every individual, regardless of their origin, status, or religion. This social justice is one of the foundations of a harmonious society, in line with Islamic ethics.
The neighbor's right in Islam
Another strong point of the book is the emphasis on the rights of the neighbor, whether Muslim or not. Respect, kindness, and assistance in times of need are religious duties. These behaviors strengthen social fabric, create community cohesion, and present a noble image of Islam in society.
A call for individual and collective reform
Through this work, Cheikh Raslan calls on every Muslim to reconsider their role within society, to actively engage for the good, to defend justice, and to cultivate prophetic behavior. This book is a tool for inner reform, but also a guide for social action.
