The call for Islam is not limited to creed, the hidden matters of the heart, Shariah, acts of worship, or human interactions such as transactions, marriages, or the Islamic penal law.
Rather, it also includes the aesthetic aspect of saying and deeds.
Moreover, the creed encourages morals discipline and Shariah aims to achieve moral sublimity in the one practicing it.
Morals in Islam enjoy a special focus in sacred Islamic texts where what is good is approved and called for, and what is evil is dispraised and forbidden.
