A matter of conscience

Since I'm not writing for a while, tonight I'm just putting this video clip which is a scene from A Man for All Seasons.


Considering the current political climate, maybe, we can learn something from it about conscience.

  1. The Islamic concept of Taqwa is closely related to conscience. In the Qur’ān verses 2:197 & 22:37 Taqwa refers to "right conduct" or "piety", "guarding of oneself" or "guarding against evil".

    In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful

    "The pilgrimage is in the well-known months, and whoever is minded to perform the pilgrimage therein (let him remember that) there is (to be) no lewdness nor abuse nor angry conversation on the pilgrimage. And whatsoever good ye do Allah knoweth it. So make provision for yourselves (as to the Hereafter); and the best provision is to ward off evil [taqwa]. Therefore keep your duty unto Me, O men of understanding."
    (Quran 2:197)

    "O humankind! We have created you out of male and female and constituted you into different groups and societies, so that you may come to know each other - the noblest amongst you, in the sight of God, are the ones possessing taqwā (consciousness of the All-Merciful Most High)." (Quran 49:13)

    "By the sun and his brightness; And the moon as she follows him; And the day as it reveals him; And the night when it enshrouds him; And the heaven and Him Who constructed it; And the earth and Him Who spread it out; And the soul and Him Who perfected it; And inspired it (with the conscience of) what is wrong and what is right; (That man) is indeed successful who nurtures it; Or he is indeed a failure who ignores it." (Quran 91: 1-10)
