Abstract

The relation between religion and ethics is among the significant topics in the “scientia moralis”, including such questions as, “What status and functions does ethics have in religion and religiosity? And the basic question, “What outcome has “religion” had for ethics?
The latter question concerning the efficacy of the Qur’ān in the field of ethical knowledge and behavior is dealt with in this research and is brought up in a macro-level in various subjects. This general attitude outlines the claim that the Holy Qur’ān recommends, guides, and motivates ethics and specific ethical behavior.
