Happiness is one of the most important issues in human life, if its place is not properly understood, it can leave significant destructive effects in human life. It is important to know what Islam as a complete and universal school thinks about this category.

In this article, in addition to examining the concept of happiness and vitality in Islamic verses and traditions and researching the cases and examples of acceptance of happiness from the point of view of Islam, an attempt has been made to show by presenting evidence that enjoying happiness, vitality and rest is a right that It is recognized as a fundamental right for all human beings. Therefore, the article is divided into two parts: in the first part, the general principles of Islam’s opinion on positive and negative happiness are examined, and in the second part, this issue is analyzed from the perspective of jurisprudence and law.
