Volume 10 Surah 12 - 15 - Enjoy Islam

Yūsuf (Joseph) | FROM PRISON TO PALACE
Islamic rules. There is a fundamental difference in the very make-up of the two types
of society. In the Islamic system, people and groups are distinguished through what
they do in the process of establishing the Islamic faith in practice and in the struggle
against the values and systems of jāhiliyyah. It is their perseverance which enables
them to endure pressure, persecution and other hardships that continue until the
establishment of an Islamic society in the land. Other societies belong to jāhiliyyah,
and they are stagnating, upholding principles and values that have nothing to do
with Islam. As such, they are like a vacuum that cannot support the functioning of
Islamic principles and values.
