The interpretation of futuvvat in the sources

Abstract

Based on the life and work of various personalities, the article concludes about the significance of the qualities that underlie the concept of futuwvat. The tolerance and high spiritual values behind this maslak are explained on the basis of sources. In order to substantiate his theoretical views, the author analyzed important events in the life of Ibrahim (a.s.) and at the same time important aspects of the activities of Pahlavon Mahmud, who was firmly on the path of futuvat, based on sources. It is shown that Futuwwat, in fact, feeds on Sufi moral rules and mores, that is, the Islamic religion and Sufism are the main factors that keep its foundation strong, and that this profession, reinforced by Islamic and Sufi ethics, is considered an important school of education in life.
