چکیده
One of the fundamental challenges in the realm of governance and societal management is the phenomenon of arrogance (istikbār), which serves as a root cause of numerous ethical and social crises. Arrogance, defined as self-aggrandizement and perceiving oneself as superior to others, is strongly condemned in Islamic revelatory texts, particularly the Holy Quran and the hadiths of the Ahl al-Bayt (a), where it is identified as a primary source of individual and societal deviations. This study aims to elucidate the principles and strategies for confronting arrogance within the framework of Islamic governance. Employing an analytical-descriptive methodology and drawing on library-based resources, the research examines Quranic verses and hadiths. The findings indicate that Islamic teachings advocate principles such as forbearance, guidance, dialogue, logical reasoning, adherence to human ethics, and, when necessary, firmness and rejection of compromise to counter the phenomenon of arrogance. The conduct of the Prophets (a) and the Imams (a) demonstrates that even when facing arrogant powers, upholding ethical and human principles and striving for their guidance and reform remain paramount. However, in the face of fundamental threats to religion and society, the principle of resoluteness and steadfastness is emphasized. Accordingly, the principles derived from the Quran and hadiths can serve as a model for Islamic governance to address arrogant and domineering currents at both domestic and international levels.
