Good Society in Contemporary Thinking Paradigms and ‎Presenting a Good Society Model Based On the Holy Quran

The pursuit and realization of an ideal society and cultivating human wellbeing has ‎been one of the main goals of the leaders and thinkers in human societies from the past ‎to the present day. The history of mankind is the proof that the thought of achieving ‎individual and collective prosperity and the formation of a flawless society have been ‎the major concerns for thinkers and leaders of human societies. The realization of a ‎good society is sometimes called a righteous society, a clean life, a perfect community, ‎utopia, an adorable society, an advanced and pious society, and a creative society, a ‎correlated, coherent and organic system.‎ To accomplish this goal, this paper attempts to answer these questions‎1‎‏. ‏What is a good society in contemporary intellectual systems and how is it defined?‎‎2‎‏. ‏What is the model and pattern of a good society based on the text of the Quran‏?‏The study is conducted within the framework of the qualitative method of meta-synthesis using ‎the seven-step technique of Sandlowski and Barroso. Meta-synthesis is a method in which the ‎qualitative studies are combined together, their similarities and differences are compared, their ‎findings are translated into each other and a new interpretation of their sets is obtained. This ‎interpretation can lead to a more comprehensive explanation of the phenomenon under study, or ‎create new theories in explaining the phenomenon examined.
