SUBJECT & OBJECTIVES: Understanding the impact of world history on ethics is crucial for fostering global ethical discourse and navigating modern challenges with historically informed moral decisions.METHOD & FINDINGS: The study finds that world history has played a dual role in shaping ethics, reinforcing moral ideals such as justice, human rights, and compassion, while simultaneously exposing the depths of human immorality through colonialism, war, slavery, and systemic oppression. However, these opposing narratives do not exist in isolation; they interact dynamically within a continually evolving moral field. Historical events, movements, and philosophical developments have influenced and shaped ethical thought, demonstrating a reciprocal and dialectical relationship between the two domains.CONCLUSION: The paper proposes the Dialectical-Moral Field Theory of History, which reinterprets world history as a contested space where moral and immoral forces are in constant tension. This perspective moves beyond simplistic moral or cynical interpretations, emphasizing history as a site of ethical struggle and transformation. Recognizing this dynamic interplay enables a deeper understanding of the moral responsibilities we inherit and informs efforts to cultivate a more just and ethically grounded global society.

SUBJECT & OBJECTIVES: Possessing a collection of ethical qualities sets apart a virtuous human being from the rest and steers them toward everlasting bliss. It is a widely recognized fact that God's messengers and spiritual leaders exemplified these qualities, even in the most arduous and bleakest circumstances. This was particularly evident on the day of ‘Āshūrā, when Imam Hussein fearlessly showcased these qualities in Karbala, addressing His formidable adversaries and encouraging them to opt for the righteous path. It is not surprising that Imam Hussein demonstrated such nobility amidst the turmoil of warfare, as his father Ali once asserted that through a change of circumstances, the mettle of men is known. On the 10th of Moharram, we must fully immerse ourselves in Imam Hussein's enlightening utterances, striving to grasp his profound truth.METHOD & FINDING: Through this examination, we intend to delve into the moral high ground that Imam Hussein adopted on this momentous day, employing a descriptive-analytical methodology. Through undertaking this investigation, we have managed to uncover several priceless facets of Imam Hussein's character, which became evident on a day unparalleled in human history. In his speeches, Imam Hussein emphasized the importance of virtues such as gentle articulation, alignment with a divine, prophetic, and Quranic approach, unwavering resolve and refusal to yield to the adversary, as well as humbleness and rejection of conceit before the Almighty, among various others.CONCLUSION: These facets demonstrate the authentic model of moral virtues embodied by Imam Hussein, which are proven in times of difficulty and crisis. His steadfastness in these principles reflects the mark of a truly perfect man.

SUBJECT AND OBJECTIVES: Commitment to the covenant is one of the most important values in religious moral system. Faithfulness to the covenant and its profound role in human meaningful life and human societies can be considered and examined from different aspects; but the main question in this research is that: What are the importance and effects of fulfilling the covenant and its meaning in life From Religious Perspective?METHOD AND FINDING: The method of this research is a descriptive method, by using library studies, review of documents and review of verses and hadiths and narrative-revelatory arguments related to the subject of discussion in the field of religious studies.CONCLUSION: We have concluded that based on the verses of the Quran and hadiths, commitment to the covenant has a high status in Islam like other Abrahamic religions; but in particular, the value of fulfilling the covenant in Islam has come to be synonymous with faith; this means that if a person does not fulfill his covenant, he has no faith. This meaning has been considered so important in the lives of human beings and human societies that if a covenant is made with the enemy and even the polytheists and unbelievers it must be committed. Therefore, one of the behaviors that play an important role in moral societies and it is important in making life meaningful and also in tolerance of human society, is the commitment to the covenant.

The Internet has become an integral part of our lives. Many lonely people look for a solution in a virtual environment. However, experts say that Internet addiction has caused disconnection from public life. Friendship sites, entertainment sites, games, etc. Many people now spend most of their time in front of a computer. Deception is common in online marriages. So many married couples already have two computers in the same house. Women spend time in a virtual environment on a separate computer, men on a separate computer. Or connecting to the Internet with mobile versions has become faster and easier. But it should be noted that the use of the virtual world can be directed in the right and positive direction. In this area, religious education has a strong role. Emphasizing the importance of using "fast horses" to protect the religion and spread Islamic knowledge, as commanded in Surat al-Imran, the Qur'an draws attention to the spread of religious knowledge, as if by the use of today's fast and superior media. Thus, through virtual education and enlightenment, it can play a high role, both scientifically and morally, as well as in terms of intellectual and spiritual guidance and nourishment in strengthening families. The article provides extensive information and research.
