The Effect of Belief in Resurrection on Social Education in the View of Allameh Tabatabaii

One of the effects of the belief in resurrection is to believe that man will see the file of his deeds in the hereafter. The deeds can either be individual or social. Perhaps, an individual deed and its relation with resurrection is not much discussed by religious people, because is known to most people this issue. But one of the issues which is unknown to people especially Muslims, is social activity, the effects of certain social behavior and the confrontation between people in the society, which are asked about in the Judgment Day. Therefore, the present paper, which uses a descriptive-analytical method and relies on the works of the famous philosopher, Allameh Tabatabaii tries to make explicit the importance and necessity of thinking of the resurrection especially in as far as social issues are concerned by making use of his complete theories. This paper which lays emphasis on the role of faith in resurrection as a controlling factor in social behavior, explores the relation between the next world and man's social life and some of the educational effects of faith on this principle such as responsibility, security, social justice, patience and self-control, self-sacrifice, purposefulness, hope, strengthening human relations, trustworthiness and foresight.
