This paper aims to examine, based on Nahjul-Balaghe, the Imam Ali’s view about the role of keeping words in strengthening social relations. Keeping word is one of most apparent moral and social values which can improve social relations and prepare the ground for healthy and humane relations. Keeping one’s promise, in Imam Ali’s attitude, is a divine obligation and is respected by all people, specially Muslims. Realizing this among all social classes requires some conditions including faith, honesty, piety, dignity and equanimity, and so on; and its effects are collective trust, improvement and progress, security, peace, justice, cooperation, order and so on. Therefore if society’s members adhere to Imam Ali’s guides and keep their promises, then collective trust spreads through the whole society so that sin and crime rate in the society will be decreased and relations will be formed according to honesty and justice. Then, the society makes its way towards progression and development, and all enjoy its advantages. This paper is based on descriptive-analytical research methodology and its method to collect data is library searching. |
