Analysis of Fitrah from the Qur’anic Verses’ Perspective

Abstract

The Qur’an regards some of the human’s characteristics as innate. One of these characteristics is human nature for seeking God. In the Qur’an, the construction of human existence searches for divinity and this feature does not arise at all from factors out of the human nature as well as social, educational, and geographical factors. Of course, if one wants to possess this feature, he or she must develop his or her personality and, demonstrate ethical conduct; otherwise, that innate feature is not achieved and is deviated. Although, this feature shows itself in dead ends and difficulties, it will be hidden if it is not in an appropriate condition leading to human confusion. Indeed, there are some reasonable proofs for this innate feature based on the commentators’ views. This characteristic is related either to inspirational instructions or to ancient worlds in which there are serious disagreements among commentators.
