Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 11
Abstract
One of the most important blessings bestowed upon nature of every human being is his inclination towards perfectionism. Man has always sought after perfection and the element of "nature" drags him to certain perfection. During his course of life, this nature has always been exposed to changes and being affected by external and instinctive factors. This research is based on this hypothesis that man has always and inherently been in pursuit of perfection and religion of Islam as powerful and sensible device in the shape of Shari'a hinders from changes in the nature of man's substantial perfection as ordered by ethical and jurisprudic instructions. Islam has paid serious attention to perfection and practice of supreme capacities of man, and so has introduced perfect man as the central point of existence and the prophets who are the most perfect people-as God's emissaries for flourishing the positive talents among the people. The way of man becoming perfect in IslamicShari'a means following salvaging orders and instructions of jurisprudence and keeping attention to strict orders and avoiding of what is prohibited. Therefore, this research firstly aims to present a precise definition and specify the meaning scope of perfection and evolution. Afterwards, the purpose of evolution is clearly and distinctively expressed. Further, psychological, philosophical and gnostic viewpoints will be dealt with, each of which is criticized with a pre-assumptive Shari'a of Islam. The process of criticism, strong of the Islamic Shari'a in perfectionism will be highlighted. In the end, the practical methodology of Shari'a for achieving perfection will be elucidated.
