The Order of Rights and Duties in Social Relations in the View of Islam on the Basis of Imam Sajjad's Risalat al-Hoquq (Treatise on Rights)

Man is a social being and social life and social relations make individual's interests compete with their wills. To solve this problem, we need a comprehensive system which determines individual's rights and duties concerning their conduct and relations with other. Islam offers a particular view on social rights and duties. Imam Sajjad's Risalat al- Hoquq (treatise on rights) addressed to a number of Shiahs represents one of the most eloquent and comprehensive models of principles on social rights and duties. Taking into account Imam Sajjad’s words in this regard, the present paper tries to offer a system of individual's rights and duties concerning social relations which can contribute to understanding the view of Islam in this respect.
