In cases where cooperation is employed in the path of honorable and human goals and the happiness of society, it is considered a public duty by the Quran; and in cases where it occurs in the course of corruption and the degradation of man and society for the sake of profiteering, the Quran introduces it as rejected and forbidden with a strict command: «و تعاونوا علی البر و التقوی و لا تعاونوا علی الاثم و العدوان و اتقوا اللّه ان اللّه شدید العقاب» 1 Cooperate and join efforts with one another, but let this cooperation of yours be in the way of expanding goodness, piety, guarding divine laws and commands, and spreading faith and righteous deeds based on piety; and never cooperate or assist in sin, wickedness, impurities, and performing actions that lead to degradation, corruption, and ruin, nor in the way of oppression, transgression against the rights of others, and stripping people of security in life, property, and honor; and strictly avoid this type of cooperation, for which God has intended a severe punishment for those who commit such sins.
1 Righteousness and goodness is not that you turn your faces toward the east or the west (and consider such outward attention as the main goal of religion, and create all that controversy because of the change of the Qibla of Muslims toward the Kaaba); rather, the righteous person is the one who believes in the sacred realities of religion: in the Creator of the world, the Last Day, the angels, the divine books, and the prophets, and in practice, makes benevolence and goodness his way of life: Despite his own attachments (or for the love of God), he performs benevolence toward relatives, orphans, the needy, travelers, and those in the way of freeing servants; he establishes prayer and pays the Zakat; and from a moral standpoint, he remains committed to covenants and promises, being faithful to the contracts and agreements they conclude; And in adverse events, illness, hardships, and also during war, he practices steadfastness and patience.
