Abstract: (612 Views) |
The ethical system of every school of thought is influenced by the way in which it conceptualizes man, identity, and rationality. The definitions of man, happiness, virtue, good, and pleasure are directed by this way of thinking. Therefore, this research aims to introduce the ethical system established by Allāmah Ṭabāṭabāī in the light of his anthropological foundations. Adopting a descriptive-analytical method, it seeks to explain his ethical system features. The findings suggest that in view of the fact that God is man’s Lord, human perfection is real, and man has end, will, and freedom, one can demonstrate that a kind of realist virtue theory based on reason and revelation can be defended. According to this theory, man has moral responsibility towards himself, God, society, and nature. The present study concludes that such an ethical system may lay the foundations for a human good life and real happiness in this world and in the next.
