The external nature of humanity is addressed in detail within the Holy Qur'an. The Prophet Salla Allahu 'Alaihi Wassalaam also gives a Muslim plenty of guidance by myriad sayings and demonstrations throughout his life. Faith is work, so therefore every aspect of a Muslim's life is intertwined with his or her faith. Key concepts such as piety, justice, and generosity are common threads throughout.
Each Muslim has individual responsibility that centers around cleanliness, purity, diet, sports, and amusements. A Muslim's spiritual and intellectual life must also be nourished.
Marriage, inheritance, adoption, husband and wife relations, parenting, and treatment of neighbors are some of the family-related topics addressed in the Holy Qur'an.
Positively contributing to society is incumbent on all Muslims. Concepts such as common good, justice, treatment of others, equality, and unity are all important aspects of Islam.
Muslims must contribute to the prosperity of the state so that the state may provide protections and services. Business ethics, usury, and personal wealth are key issues in the Muslim community and detailed in the Holy Qur'an.
Laws are given by ALLAH Subhanahu wa ta'ala, personal freedom is guaranteed by this law. The administration of justice, protection, security, and dealing with common affairs as well as a Muslims responsibility in this system are all discussed in the Holy Qur'an.
Verily this Qur'an doth guide to that which is most right (or stable),
and giveth the Glad Tidings to the Believers who work deeds of righteousness,
that they shall have a magnificent reward. [Al-Isra, 17:9]
::: Qur'an
It is He Who sendeth down rain from the skies: with it We produce vegetation of all kinds: from some We produce green (crops), out of which We produce grain, heaped up (at harvest); out of the date-palm and its sheaths (or spathes) (come) clusters of dates hanging low and near: and (then there are) gardens of grapes, and olives, and pomegranates, each similar (in kind) yet different (in variety): when they begin to bear fruit, feast your eyes with the fruit and the ripeness thereof. Behold! in these things there are signs for people who believe. ~Quran, 6:99 (Yusuf Ali)
