Abstract

Ethics is a systematic and critical analysis of morality and moral considerations that guide human conduct in a society or a particular activity. When moral values, rules and duties staff is subject to ethical analysis, their relationship with human interests that are common to all, whatever their cultural context is particularly important. Incorporating ethics into our lives should not be cause of surprise or presumption, as it must be something that we should incorporate in us every day, but apparently ethics has been a rather serious and somewhat complicated phenomenon in our current reality, since ethics can sometimes only be used as simply as a face in our daily actions.

Introduction

The definition of ethics in the sample to it as a branch of philosophy is considered a normative science because it deals with the rules of human conduct distinguished from the formal and empirical science (Weatherby, p. 40).

Of the great religions of humanity, Islam was the last to appear. Announced by one man, Muhammad, a little more than a century, was adopted by many inhabitants of the vast empire that the Muslims conquered and ruled more or less until the tenth century (Lewis, p. 487). Since that time, Islam became the flag of a number of people, who for centuries had fought for hegemony in a large area occupied by the Middle East and western Asia, with branches in southeast Europe and Africa.

It is misleading to think of Islam as simply a faith or belief (Lewis, p. 487). In fact, Islam is a practice, the action of submitting one's life to God. More accurately, the practices of Islam are intimately bound up into the beliefs and ideas of Islam, and vice versa.
