Abstract

This note has tried to study the effect of the object of knowledge on ethics from the view of the holy Quran. So, at first, the holy Quran verses with deliberated view have been investigated and the knowledges which have been emphasized in the Quran and are effective on ethics have been sorted and observed which are: 1- The knowledge of the world, 2- The knowledge of hereafter, 3- The knowledge of sharia law and ethical commands, 4- The knowledge of Shayṭān (the devil) and the ways to fight, 5- the knowledge of man, 6- the knowledge of the almighty of God. Then it has been examined that how much the moral impact in these knowledges and in the determined stages are attained and which of the knowledges have a deeper and more perfective effect. The result is whatever the object of the knowledge is more highly the moral impacts become deeper and higher and the highest knowledge which is the knowledge of Tawhid (Oneness of God) and God’s attributes has the greatest effect in the improvement of ethics.
