فلسفة الفشل في القرآن الكريم
Philosophy of failure from a Quranic perspective
Abstract
This research employs a descriptive and analytical approach, focusing on Quranic verses that discuss failure. By delving into the Quran, we aim to understand the philosophy of failure as outlined in its verses, shedding light on its origin and Quranic reasons. Through this study, it becomes evident that the root cause of failure in the Quran is linked to non-compliance with divine and prophetic leadership, resulting in discord and disagreement, whether on an individual or collective level. Furthermore, failure is intricately tied to worldly attachments, indulgence in desires, and submission to them. The study reveals that the cause of failure lies within the individual, manifested through conflict, disobedience, impatience, and the understanding that success is not intrinsic but rather a divine grant contingent upon fulfilling its conditions. The Quranic perspective categorizes failures into four types, encompassing the wrongdoer, disbeliever, criminal, and sorcerer, under which all varieties of failures fall.
