Abstract :
Objective: One of the challenges in today's world is that each generation defines success differently based on their current circumstances and advancements in science and technology. However, studying human beings and their success solely through the lens of psychology is insufficient due to the complexity of human nature. Therefore, a comprehensive investigation of various teachings, including religious and philosophical doctrines, is needed for the study of success. This article aims to provide an accurate and all-encompassing definition of success, taking into account the common nature of humans, so that it can serve as a guiding principle for all generations.Method: This analytical review article employs a library research method to gather qualitative data. The content analysis technique is used to analyze textual materials.Findings: Through written sources, relevant information regarding the concept of success in Islamic literature is collected. Content analysis is conducted to define and determine its dimensions, resulting in a comprehensive and precise identification and definition of success based on Islamic literature. Additionally, the sections of success analysis are delineated in terms of objective, subject, and methodology.Conclusion: By considering the aforementioned points in Islamic teachings, this study addresses the subject of success at three levels: foundations, theories, and philosophy, with the aim of achieving a proper understanding of success. Ultimately, a proposal is presented, titled "Citizen Social Profile," which utilizes individuals' positive and negative backgrounds through the Fada System (Voluntary Social Activities) as a means to promote the well-being and happiness of the population.
