Item Reconstructing Society in the Light of Sūrat al- Ḥujurāt: Protecting Society from Malicious Tongue(Islamic Studies, 2023) Hossain, ASM; Salama, M. A. RMuslims face numerous challenges that threaten their social cohesion, including the harmful misuse of speech. Given the gravity of this issue, this study explores a path toward social reform by integrating the values of Sūrat al-Ḥujurāt into society through the lens of social reconstruction philosophy. Specifically, it examines verses 11 and 12 of Sūrat al-Ḥujurāt, which address speech-related social ills such as backbiting, ridicule, and name-calling. These verses also outline a process of self-development that fosters mutual respect and brotherhood, thereby reducing the likelihood of internal conflicts among Muslims. Through a qualitative analysis, this study highlights the pivotal role of Sūrat al-Ḥujurāt in safeguarding society from the destructive effects of the tongue.
