The Notion of Social Change in the Qur'an -A Multi-Disciplinary Approach
Abstract
Social scientists try to explain the notion of social change under the light of progressive/linear
and periodic/cyclic approaches by taking some certain reasons into consideration
including population, economy, geography, culture and technology. If the Qur'an
is examined within this context, it will be clear that the main component of social change
is the society itself. Moreover, the Qur'an expresses the religious and ethical reasons for
the social change, and deals with the individual, social and universal changeable and unchangeable
by means of various concepts. Our study aims to demonstrate a panorama
concerning some Quranic concepts such as ajal, sunnatullah and taghyir, mudawala and
daf’ in the context of social change, and thus to provide a multi-disciplinary reading
about the analysis of social change.
