Abstract

The realm of ethics is divided into four areas: servitude ethics, individual ethics, social ethics, and the ethics of relation to the environment (other beings). In this division, which has been much welcomed and overshadowed by the recent type of moral books, there is a logical comprehensiveness and complete coverage, and no other person can be imagined in its breadth; But at the same time, some of the details of these four areas have been neglected and these topics have been omitted in the old and new books of ethics. Our infiltration of these axes is due to the blessings of the Islamic Revolution and Imam Khomeini's epistemological school. By creating a deep social attitude, Imam Khomeini has expanded the scope of all Islamic sciences, including the knowledge of Islamic ethics. This profound Islamic view has made the field of social ethics very different from its predecessor and has provided a more comprehensive picture of it. This article explains this development analytically.
