Techniques for promoting chastity with the focus of Surat al-Noor

In Islam, observance of chastity and protection of family's privacy is of particular importance for both men and women. Many of the harms imposed to girls and women in society is due to lack of chastity. Internalizing this value in girls and women makes them more resistant to aberrations. In this article, the author seeks to describe the individual and social ways of promoting chastity in Surat Noor, in a descriptive and analytical way, and to provide some ways of practicing this virtue and institutionalizing it in society. Of course, chastity and modesty cannot be institutionalized unless both individuals and society as a whole adhere to it. If people can maintain privacy and boundaries at home and keep parental respect in their behavior, then they can succeed in maintaining privacy. If people in the community respect privacy and the violators are severely punished, no one can easily break the limitations necessary in keeping chastity.
