Method: This applied research was conducted through a ...qualitative approach and with a phenomenological method. The statistical population was the male-students of Ferdowsi University in Mashhad, and 48 undergraduates of them were interviewed in a semi-structured way with a purposeful sampling method "with maximum diversity" and analyzed using the three-step coding method of Strauss and Corbin. Results: The expressions expressed by the participants were classified into 858 concepts, 62 categories, and 14 themes. Examining the lived experiences of the students, the findings of study, with some negligence, were divided into three parts: the reasons why they enter into an illegitimate relationship, the reasons why they leave an illegitimate relationship, and the reasons why they avoid an illegitimate relationship. The themes inferred in the first part include the religion of permissiveness, the decline of indigenous identity, the domination of sexual desires, psychological issues, the stimulating social media context, self-deception, and the unattainable dream of marriage, and the themes of the second part include orienting to spirituality, being zealous, and thinking about the consequences. The harmfulness of an illegitimate relationship, satisfaction of sexual desires through other ways, the lack of conditions for an illegitimate relationship, and the choice of chastity include the four themes of the third part. . Conclusion: The most important challenges of observing chastity, and the factors of entering into an illegitimate relationship (i.e. the barriers of chastity) are: ‘the sexual desire’, ‘the impossibility of its legitimate satisfaction, ‘the permissible and highbrow spirit’ and ‘the social and media stimulating atmosphere’; the main drivers of chastity in the this statistical population were faith, ‘still awake’ moral conscience, religious-moral family atmosphere, and social control.
The purpose of the current research is to explain the philosophical relationship between modesty and hijab in Islamic education and present the educational implications of this relationship. The ...research was conducted with a qualitative approach and using a descriptive-analytical method. First, in a descriptive way, the concept and place of modesty and hijab in Islamic education texts were investigated by using Quranic verses, hadiths and traditions. Then the analysis was done on the relationship between modesty and hijab. The results showed that modesty is a natural, internal and underlying thing compared to the hijab, and in the relationship between modesty and the hijab is in a way that hijab is a symbolic garment of modesty and is an external, superstructure, although it is valuable and necessary to preserve hijab as a symbolic matter in the Islamic society. Therefore, awakening and keeping the nature of modesty alive precedes recommending hijab. As a result, from the point of view of Islamic education, a direct command to observe hijab without cultivating the natural aspect of modesty that takes place from childhood is considered a kind of haste in education. Accordingly, it is suggested that, in educational programs and actions, the recommendation to observe the hijab should be made after awakening the innate nature of modesty, and without the cultivation of the nature of modesty and without considering the preliminary role of modesty, taking measures regarding the observance of the hijab will not be effective.

Shah Wali Allah Dehlavi was an outstanding religious scholar of the 18th-century Muslim India who responded to the major religious issues of his time from an Islamic perspective. His proponents among ...the traditional Hanafite Muslims see his contribution simply as a conservative restatement of the Hanafite School. According to them, with a slight deviation from the existing positive law (furu/fiqh) of the school, he is as much a Hanafite scholar as were the medieval Hanafite jurists such as Ibn al-Humam and Ibn Ameer al-Hajj. Some others, relying upon the ijtihad principles and methods adopted by Shah Wali Allah, held that he reached the level of limited-mujtahid within the school of Shafite, but only theoretically. Practically, they say, he never departed from the dominant Hanafite School in the sub-continent because of the prevailing socio-religious and cultural impediments. Contrary to them, a few others consider him 'the founder of Muslim Modernism'. This paper attempts to evaluate the opinions of some notable traditional Islamic scholars.
From the first day, human life has been subject to some social principles and these principles are also the guarantor of human social development. Among these principles, the principle of marriage is ...very important for the beginning of family life and is also very important for the survival of human race. This principle has been adopted in different ways in different civilizations since ancient times. In addition, it is also emphasized in almost all religions. But in modern times, a so-called enlightened class has not only rejected religious and social rules like marriage for family life, but has also found an alternative to it, whereby men and women live together having a sexual relationship without being married. This theory is known as Cohabitation or Live-in Relationship. Since the beginning of cohabitation in 1960, this ideology has taken hold of various countries and in the present time, it has also appeared in Islamic countries on the name of liberalism. Apart from this, the process of cohabitation has many disadvantages, including physical and mental diseases and psychological problems, and many people in western countries are suffering from these problems. Therefore, if the way of cohabitation is not stopped now, it is possible that the people of Pakistan will also suffer from these problems in the future. This article will explore the dangers and harms of cohabitation while discussing its socio-ethic and psychological impulses in society along with recommendations for avoiding tis lifestyle.

A chaste lifestyle is one of the various types of lifestyle that contains a wide scope and studies the characteristics of interpersonal relationships. This lifestyle consists of the principles and ...rules that create and maintain chastity in various areas of life. In order to study the behavioral and emotional components of the chaste lifestyle with an approach to Islamic sources, this study has been conducted using analytical and descriptive methods. The findings show that not showing off, avoiding stimulating factors, satisfying sexual needs in chaste contexts, having synergism for success in maintaining chastity, contenting with possessions and protecting them, creating and increasing chaste behaviors, and reducing and eliminating anti-chastity wrong behaviors are among the most important behavioral components of a chaste lifestyle in Islamic sources. Furthermore, by control of fear and anxiety about chaste decisions and actions, interest in a healthy life and a bright future, repentance from past errors, expectation and enthusiasm for evolution and development, happiness and satisfaction of moving on the valuable path to chastity, affection and love for Allah, optimism and hope for His help, and strength of modesty and correct control and guidance of sexual emotions, we can achieve the emotional components of a chaste lifestyle.
