Individual-social Result of Religious Identity with Emphasis on the Teachings of the Holy Quran and Narrations

Document Type : The Quarterly Jornal

Abstract

One of the important issues in interdisciplinary studies with Islamic subjects is paying attention to the wide arena of social sciences. Undoubtedly, the Islamic concepts and solutions presented in these texts can solve many important issues related to human life. One of the important and different aspects of modern studies in the field of anthropology is considering the identity and human existence; since everyone's personal and social life is affected by their identity. Religious identity, as one of the important types of identity, plays an important role in the formation of human personality. On the other hand, the study of social change and the development of current societies indicates the emergence of various identity crises, especially among young people. Therefore, the current study examines the verses and narrations related to the Fourteen Infallibles with a descriptive method and analytical approach to explain the most important functions and fruits of individual and social identity. The findings of this study suggest that personalization, strengthening the spirit of supporting, tolerance, etc. are the most important fruits in the individual and social dimension of religious identity, since knowing the methods of institutionalizing religious identity, and explaining the fruits of religious identity can be an effective step in resolving these crises.
