Abstract

Ethical principles have an important role in improving social and communal life, as well as ethical values are the foundation of society. A person is not considered a human without good values. The ethical standards of Islam are split into various realms, which begin with a person's personal life. What is every human being's ethical responsibility? Islam has enshrined it in its complete ethical teachings as slander, arrogance, oppression, abuse, cruelty, dishonesty, drunkenness, gambling, adultery, immorality, war, and strife, among other things, have all been labeled unethical. Whereas good manners, on the other hand, have been encouraged. This research work aims to explain ethical values of respect for humanity in the current scenario and as well as from the Islamic perspective. The information was gathered from a variety of sources, including books, newspapers, magazines, articles, websites, and dissertations, among others. We used a variety of libraries for this, including SBBWU, Peshawar library, Archive library Peshawar, and University of Peshawar library. With the passage of time, individuals have begun to disregard ethical values, understanding that their lives and characteristics are significant and valued and that everything else is unimportant. This thought creates unbalance environment in society, which affects not only everyone's life rather every passing movement is producing problems in society such as, cruelty, lies, theft, inequality, violence, injustice, etc. Every object of the world, whether linked or unrelated to a person, has substantial worth in its own place. Allah (SWT) has sent a human being to the earth to accomplish good. It is necessary that we should change our think and we should follow Islamic teachings. Then our lives and the atmosphere of society can be balanced and we can control unethical elements of society.
