Abstract

This paper provides a thorough examination of how Islamic ethics guide Muslims in navigating the complexities of contemporary challenges. Drawing from the Qur'an and the life of Prophet Muhammad, Islamic ethics offer a comprehensive framework that informs moral conduct in personal, social, economic, and environmental spheres. By carefully analyzing these teachings alongside the tradition of Ijtihad, Muslims approach modern ethical dilemmas with wisdom and compassion. Central values such as justice, compassion, honesty, and humility serve as guiding principles, shaping individual and collective behavior. The paper illustrates how Muslims engage with pressing issues like digital ethics, bioethics, environmental conservation, and global justice, seeking to harmonize religious teachings with contemporary realities. They grapple with privacy concerns, ethical technology use, genetic engineering, and end-of-life care while emphasizing stewardship of the environment and advocating for social justice. Through a steadfast commitment to ethical principles and a dedication to advancing justice and compassion, Muslims endeavor to fulfill their moral responsibilities and embody the ethical vision of Islam in today's world, contributing to a more equitable, compassionate, and sustainable global community.

Abstract

This article reframes the early Islamic experience as a usable archive for global constitutionalism by theorizing the Medinan compact and the prophetic pledge of allegiance (bay’ah) as a covenantal social contract. Unlike transactional models that center self-interest, a covenantal grammar binds political membership through thick consent, reciprocal guarantees among distinct communities, and a shared locus of authority and adjudication. Methodologically, the study integrates internal reconstruction of primary clauses in the Medina Charter with a cautious comparative reading against modern contractarianism. We operationalize three indicators (consent, reciprocity, and authority) and code their textual instantiation across clauses on common defense, inter-communal autonomy, and dispute settlement to God and His Messenger. The analysis shows that consent is ritualized and renewable (bay’ah), reciprocity is institutionalized through mutual protection and liability rules, and authority is centralized yet procedurally shared through a common adjudicatory forum. These features distinguish a covenantal contract from transactional social contracts and generate implementable design cues for plural polities: a shared moral preamble, inter-communal autonomy with a forum, reciprocity guarantees over religion and property, and periodic covenant renewal as a civic rite. The article addresses anachronism and authenticity debates by triangulating early sources and bracketing contested passages. While historically bounded, the framework broadens the archive of global constitutionalism and offers a normative vocabulary for post-conflict constitution-making and durable coexistence in religiously diverse societies.
