Society and History from a Qur'anic Perspective
There are different theories about defining the concept of society, community and city and what are the criteria that distinguish them; there are some special criteria - such as political independence - that are almost accepted in defining the identity of society, and in the terminology of the social and human sciences, these concepts are updated according to various criteria and specifications, as society as a comprehensive unit undergoes many changes; knowing the mechanism of historical and social transformations is of particular importance in the system of these sciences.
