The Source of Social Conflict from the Perspective of the Holy Qur'an

Hossein Azhdaryzadeh, Mohammad Nabi Amini

Abstract


Sociologists have searched the source of conflict in social structures and individual actions, and consider social classes, scarce resources, and unequal distribution of power as the source of conflict. Analyzing it in the Qur'an as an epistemological-revelation source is the main concern of this article, which is done by adopting the method of inferential thematic interpretation and logical analysis of the verses. The results obtained are that the conflict has individual and social roots. Its individual root is the love of human nature and the nature of human employment. However, its social origin is rooted in social structures.  Rebellion, extravagance, arrogance, corruption, and discrimination lead to conflict and social strife. Also, social values and values such as right and wrong, monotheism polytheism, faith, and disbelief are in conflict and its followers are always fighting. Sometimes the supporters of the right prevail and sometimes the people of falsehood prevail, but the will of the truth is that one day it will prevail over the falsehood.
