دور الإنسان في النهوض الحضاري “رؤية قرآنية”
The research aims to demonstrate the centrality of the human role in civilizational advancement from the Quranic perspective. It clarifies that the original mission for which God created humans, and which the Quran vividly emphasizes, is the inhabitation and development of the Earth according to a monotheistic vision of God. Therefore, God created humans on Earth in the best stature, honored, free, and responsible for their own existence, both worldly and otherworldly. He enabled them with the tools for development, stewardship, and civilization building. He also clarified their responsibility for their own selves and the progression of their lives in this world, whether it be an ascent or a civilizational fall. Moreover, God Almighty sent His messengers to reform what had been corrupted in human conditions and perceptions, to reinvigorate the civilizational achievement that realizes dignity, happiness, and both spiritual and material elevation for humans.
Keywords: Fundamentals, Civilization, Morals, Reform, Society, Justice.
