    تعارفرخ نسل نونسل انسانی کا اگر غور سے مطالعہ کیا جائے تو چند باتیں بڑی واضح نظر آتی ہیں۔ اولا: انسان زیادہ دیر تک تنہا نہیں رہ سکتا لہذا اسے مل جل کر ہی رہنا ہے۔دوم: وہ اپنی ساری ضروریات کو اکیلا تن تنہا پورا نہیں کرسکتا، لہذا اسے دوسرے افراد کی مدد کی ضرورت ہے۔سوم: پہلی اور دوسری صورتحال سے نبرد آزمائی کے لئے انسان کو بنیادی اخلاق واوصاف اختیار کرنے کی ضرورت درپیش ہے، جن کے بغیر انسانی تعامل ممکن نہیں رہتا۔اسی بنیاد پر یہ بات اخذ کی جاسکتی ہے کہ انسانی باہمی ابلاغ اور اعلی اخلاق کسی بھی انسانی معاشرے کی ترقی کے بنیادی اجزاء میں شامل ہیں اور دیگر وسائل سے مل کر اس قوم کو ترقی سے ہمکنار کرسکتے ہیں۔چہارم: انسان معاشی ضروریات کو پورا کرنے کے لئے اپنے علاوہ اپنے گھرانے کا کفیل اور خاندان کے زیر کفالت بھی ہے۔ پنجم: انسان اگر موجود وسائل خاصکر قدرتی وسائل کا بہتر استعمال جان لے تو خوشحال رہ سکتا ہے۔ششم: مادی وسائل کے بمراہ انسانی وسائل کا ہونا بھی ضروری ہے، اس میں ہنرمندی ایک لازمی عنصر ہے۔ہفتم: اپنی ضرورتوں کے اظہار کے لیے زبان ایک لازمی چیز ہے۔ہشتم: وہ اپنی بے چینی کی کیفیت یا اضطرابی حالت سے نکل کر سکون کے لیے عقائد ونظریات کا حامل بھی رہنا چاہتا ہے۔نہم: ابتداء توحید سے کرتا ہے پھر وسوسوں کی دنیا میں گھر کر شرک کی مختلف اقسام کا شکار ہوجاتا ہے۔دہم: انسانی بگاڑ کے سدھار کے لیے اخلاقی تعلیم اور اقدار کی ضرورت ہے۔ہم سب جانتے ہیں کہ اللہ تعالی نے آفرینش ہی سے انسان کی رہنمائی کے لیے آدم اول کو اس کی حدود وقیود سے آگاہ کردیا تھا اور اخلاقی ترقی کے لیے رہنما اصولوں سے روشناس کروا دیا تھا۔صرف اور صرف اخلاقی تعلیم وتربیت جو ایک اعلی اخلاقی ماحول میں دی جائے وہی رہنمائی مہیا کرسکتی ہے۔ضرورت اس امر کی ہے کہ جہاں جہاں معاشرہ اخلاقی انحطاط کا شکار ہے وہاں کا خیرخواہ اور سنجیدہ عنصر آج کے نوجوان کو اپنے بہتر مستقبل کے لیے اس کی مدد کرے تاکہ وہ ایک با اخلاق ومفید شہری بنے اور اس معاشرے کی ضرورتوں اور امنگوں کو محسوس کرکے معاشی ڈھانچے کی تعمیر وترقی میں اپنا مثبت کردار ادا کرسکے۔
