The Role of the Mosque in Social Reform: An Analytical Study in the Light of Islamic Teachings

Abstract

Individual and society are inseparable, just as individual becomes an unreal unit apart from society, similarly society cannot exist without individuals. In other words, the collective condition of individuals is called society. When many people join together to form a society, Islam has made congregational prayer mandatory for their reformation and purification. For which the establishment of a mosque is inevitable and this is the reason why when Islam created the first society, the population of mosques started with it. Mosques are the best part of the earth on the face of the earth. It is said Mosques are a great religious slogan and shining symbol in Islam. Mosques have been the center of development and guidance, propagation of Islam and national struggle since the first day. From here, the message of Islam is broadcast to the whole world. This is the source of the intellectual, cultural and spiritual forces of the Islamic nation. In the present era, social, moral, political and administrative corruption has become common in Muslim societies. But unfortunately mosques have also been affected by the national decline of Muslims. The mosque is becoming empty of its Shariah purposes and soul. It started when the Muslim's relationship with the mosque became weak. Which is also having a bad effect on the training and development of the Nation of Islam. Today, if we wish to reform the society and make it a cradle of peace and security, then we have to activate this fundamental role of the mosque. In this paper, it has been examined that what is the role of mosques in reforming society? And it is necessary to restore the real position and status of the mosques so that the Islamic nation becomes the cradle of peace and security.
