    Assalamualaikum

    i)How does Ghamidi sahab defines objective and subjective morality(including the cases in which we can’t decide whether it’s morally true or not)? ii)And according to him Quran says that a person has a small court in himself (he knows in his instinct what is right and wrong)but for example a person living among gangsters, to him killing is not morally wrong. So what does he says about it? iii)And to which extent does environment affects a human and his instincts? or his perceptions and perspectives?

    Ghamidi sahab does not specifically define morality; morality is universal and it’s beyond the constraints of time and space. For example, every human being today regardless of where they live, as well as every human being in the past agree that truth and justice are moral values while falsehood and injustice are immoral.

    Even if a person is raised amongst bad company, he still knows the difference between right and wrong, as well as moral and immoral. For example, there’s no thief in the world who likes to be stolen from even though he himself commits the same act against others. If he was unaware of theft being wrong or immoral, he would not mind people stealing from him.

    Of course bad influence desensitizes the sense of morality within us, but never to an extent where we can’t tell the difference between moral and immoral.
