REFORMED BEHAVIOUR
Maintain the Order
DO not spread corruption on the earth after it has been set in order, pray to Him with fear and hope, God's mercy is close to those who do good. (THE QURAN 7: 56)
Reform means leading one’s life in accordance with God-established system. It is not lawful for man to adopt any path other than this. Human activity was initially designed by God to create no excessive clamour. So, now man should refrain from using modern contrivances which create noise pollution. Here, God has arranged for breathing fresh air, so man must not indulge in activities which may pollute the atmosphere. Vegetation and animals flourish in their separate spheres, so man should remain in his own sphere, instead of encroaching on those of other creatures. Since everything is functioning in a planned way, man should, refrain from adopting any such emotional, hasty course that will lead to social disruption.
All the things of this world are functioning in complete coordination with one another, so man must also lead his life in harmony with others, wishing them well and seeking what is profitable for his brethren. The benefits of such a world are manifold.

There are only two possible kinds of behaviour for man on this earth created by God— reformed behaviour and corrupt behaviour.
Reformed behaviour is the conscious following of the order already established by God in the universe. As opposed to this, corrupt behaviour is deviation from that order and the adoption of a self-made system. But the latter course ill befits God’s creatures, for the earth has already been reformed by God. This has not been left for man to do. Man has only to follow the path of nature and build his society in the same pattern. This reformed earth of God is not only the best place for human habitation, but is also the best model for human conduct.
