Book reference: p.95 — "Throw light in detail on the moral values system of Islam as a significant feature of the Islamic Civilization."

Akhlaq as a Complete, Revealed System

• Not a loose set of virtues but a structured system tied directly to Tawhid and accountability before God.
• The Prophet (PBUH) stated his mission was explicitly "to perfect good character."

Core Legislated Values

• Honesty (Sidq)
• Trustworthiness (Amanah)
• Justice ('Adl)
• Humility (Tawadu')
• Patience (Sabr)
• Forgiveness ('Afw)
• Compassion (Rahmah)
  • These recur across Qur'an and Sunnah as binding norms, not optional ideals.

Universality

• Moral obligations apply toward all people — Muslim and non-Muslim, friend and enemy — not an in-group-only code (5:8).

Integration With Law

• Many moral values are backed by legal/judicial mechanisms — fraud, false witness and backbiting carry both moral and, in some cases, legal consequence.

Self-Accountability Mechanism

• Belief in constant divine observation (Muraqabah) and ultimate accountability (Akhirah) functions as an internalised regulator of conduct.

إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُ بِالْعَدْلِ وَالْإِحْسَانِ

وَلَا يَجْرِمَنَّكُمْ شَنَآنُ قَوْمٍ عَلَىٰ أَلَّا تَعْدِلُوا ۖ اعْدِلُوا هُوَ أَقْرَبُ لِلتَّقْوَى

اردو: اور کسی قوم کی دشمنی تمیں کو اس پر اکسانے پر آمادہ نہ کرے، انصاف کرو، یہ تقویٰ کے زیادہ قریب ہے۔
