Qoran Shenakht

The reality of conduct is an inner movement which starts from the material world and ends in meeting with God. Resting on the Quranic view, Allamah Tabatabai proves the existence of such an inner movement in man. He supports his argument by citing such words like sirat, tareek and sabeel, meaning (path or way), sky door, ascent to the God, antecedence, going astray and following the right path, persevering to meet the Lord, meeting with God, return, and such questions like multilevel character of Islam and of faith, multilevel character of the faithful, reproaching the pause in the stage of appearance, purposefulness of man's life and necessity of striving for the goal. He considers that this inner movement occurs within the soul. Thus, it is necessary for man to truly know the soul. A real knowledge of the soul depends on realizing that God is the ultimate aim in this course. Divine religion has made explicit the nature of conduct in this respect by prescribing acts of worship, and only those who have reached the state of the worship of the free are capable of displaying such a conduct
