Özet:

The Quran mentions on several occasions of joy and happiness of man, and takes the happiness of mankind in this world and afterworld as one of the fundamental objectives. Therefore, to reach a perfect moral system and understanding of happiness, theoretic and practical principles are declared by Quran. The word “Ferah”, mentioned in twenty-one Quran verses, is one of the main concepts of Quran regarding “joy and happiness”. By linguists and exegetes three different meanings of “Ferah" are mentioned; “jubilation, acquiescence and exultant.” The concept of “Ferah” is seen in different contexts in Quran; seemingly contradictory situations. But all the contexts we have and the three meanings mainly tell us some of the essential facts about “the joy and the happiness of mankind.”
