Our noble values that we are proud of

Noble values are a great, refined concept, known from the news of our great Islamic religion, which made values one of its main pillars, and they are the values that the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, was sent to fulfill in order for people to enjoy them, as he, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “I was sent to perfect morals.” He stated that His brothers from among the prophets and messengers were sent with these values, so no nation abandons any of these values, until God sends a messenger to it to bring it back to the ideal values that God Almighty loves and wants from His servants. And the Messengers, prayers and peace of God be upon him, was sent to complete her noble deeds, as if they were about to be completed, and his mission was the building block of the end of moral virtues. .
The essence of those values was respect for the human instinct, which is the instinct of God that created people, and that there is no alteration of God’s creation, the instinct that means all moral and moral perfection, and it is the standard of God’s honoring of man. .
We Muslims take great pride in these values.
Because we are people of a religion and a high human civilization. Rather, we are the witnesses to the nations that their messengers conveyed to them what God wanted from them, as the Noble Qur’an said.
This was expressed by Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Crown Prince of the sisterly Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, at the Jeddah Summit for Security and Development, saying: “We look forward that this summit will lead to the development of a comprehensive framework for a bright future, in which we give hope to the young men and women of the region, enabling them to realize their hopes, and provide To the world our message and noble values that we are proud of, and we will not abandon them, and we wish the world to respect them as we respect other values.”
He expressed this, on the tongue of the Arab and Islamic nation, from the reality of the Kingdom's Islamic and Arab responsibility.
It is an honest expression, and a clear message that the ideal values that were sent by the prophets and messengers, and in which rational people of any religion do not differ, are constants that do not accept discussion as well as detraction, and that all people must protect and maintain them so that the human instinct remains protected from tampering.
However, we are distinguished from others in that we see these values as a religion that we preserve, protect, and defend;
Because God Almighty will be held accountable for every behavioral negligence that occurs on the part of a person, and will reward him for maintaining it, as he rewards for honesty, generosity, loyalty, forbearance, patience, humility, and protecting one’s neighbor...
Likewise, the opposites of that are equally punished, and as chastity and chivalry are rewarded, so is he punished for infidelity and immorality.
Because a person does not own himself, rather he is owned by the one who created him, perfected and justified him, the one who revived him and killed him, whoever feeds him, waters him, makes him sick and heals him, whoever subjugates the universe to him to walk in it and extract its bounties, he does not have the right to rebel against him in the name of the whims of the soul or freedom. He is free to eat, drink, sleep, marry, enter and exit, remain on his religion or submit to God, Lord of the Worlds, and he is not free to transgress against himself or others, or violate the privacy of others, or He blackmails them, and he has no freedom in aggression and corruption on earth, and he has no freedom to follow the temptation of Satan to change the character of God on which he created him.
The state, may God protect it, was keen to protect these values from being tampered with. It was a forerunner to a legal legislation that punishes those who offend society, thus conveying a negative image of it, in Decree-Law No. 5 of 2012 to combat information technology crimes, which includes severe penalties in cases of public morals. .
Everyone has to be a guardian of these values, each within the limits of his responsibility, as all of you are shepherds and each of you is responsible for his flock.
May God protect our society, our country and other people from the epidemic of moral disorder and intellectual deviation.
