Abstract:
"Cultural engineering" is the identification of how to manage the subject of culture. Cultural engineering arises based on discovering Islam's management style in institutionalizing cultural subjects in society. This strategy exists in the Quran and Hadith, and through it, society can be guided step by step. Given Islam's lofty goal in advancing cultural discussions and delegating this duty to scholars and cultural executors, addressing this topic becomes necessary to discover its precise dimensions and operational solutions; therefore, the necessity of the present research is to explain such a pattern from the primary sources of Islam. The benefit of discovering and implementing this engineering is determining the level of religiosity of individuals, the amount of influence of religious propositions among the people, institutionalizing a cultural subject in society, and providing continuity to it. Accordingly, the present article addresses the explanation of cultural engineering in two sections: the Quran and Hadith.
Machine summary:
The benefit of discovering and implementing this engineering is determining the level of religiosity of individuals, the amount of influence of religious propositions among the people, institutionalizing a cultural subject in society, and ensuring its continuity.
The benefit of recognizing and implementing the cultural engineering of the Quran and Hadith is the institutionalization of a matter within society or within the character of individuals, and conversely, the elimination of social and individual abnormalities.
This subject to the extent that has been so important that God commanded the Prophet (PBUH) to follow His own way in the method of presenting Quranic teachings.
To further explain this subject, two examples of cultural management derived from the gradual sequence of the Quran's revelation are presented.
2. Islamic covering and the method of its gradual explanation Islamic covering (hijab) is another subject that can be extracted and presented from the cultural engineering of the Quran.
In the third stage, in order to institutionalize Islamic covering and preserve this cultural achievement, the Holy Quran refers to those who do not follow this law as wicked and deprives them from this society.
Almighty God, in the Holy Quran and based on the "process of revelation," has presented precise and organized concepts for the guidance of society.
The interpretation of the signs of faith in hadith and also the method of explaining the impurity of wine are two patterns that can be cited for this cultural management of the Imams (as).
