Modern Concept of Good Governance in Islamic Perspective

Abstract

Islam is a complete code of life as it encompasses all regimes of life. All knowledge’s apparently complying to be the modern and new, basically get roots from the Islamic civilization and form their structures through the foundations provided by Islam. Good governance could be a new turn for the post modern world but as far as Islam is concerned, it has mentioned the characteristics of good governance various times in Holy Quran 14 hundreds years ago… Actually today’s world is mimicking the fundamentals structure of ruler ship of Islam and provoking good governance for the sake of welfare of weak peoples of the society. Islam conditions good governance with the welfare of the deprived peoples as it lays foundation for the uprising of the society. Islamic state implies some responsibilities to the ruler or a governor as the implementation of Islamic rituals in the form of soum and salaat but at the same time it demands a ruler to be the just for all disregard of pluralism in this society. All would be equal to him and would be treated equally when it comes to religion, sector, gender, colour, race and language. He won’t be inclined to any one just because of being his own class or the favorite one. It is his duty to make people, his subjects to obey him, follow his instruction as they believe that whatever is being done is ultimate in their favor and is to uplift the society. If it is so then an exemplary society is laid. In such society you are privileged being a man leaving all other differences.
