Soft power methods and their effects on the heritage of the Ahl al-Bayt, thought and approach

Abstract

In this study, we reviewed the importance of adopting soft power as an alternative to restore rights and preserve gains, instead of resorting to the principle of force, which has had negative effects that humans have suffered throughout history. Some civilized countries have falsely claimed to adopt the concept of soft power and establish its foundations, ignoring the role of tolerant laws, especially Islamic law, in establishing this principle that the Prophet of Mercy and his honourable family were keen to establish and demonstrate its great importance in their sayings and positions, as we explained in the first axis. In contrast, the second axis clarified their most prominent methods, peace be upon them, in adopting this principle and generalizing it as a social culture. We concluded by stating the effects of adopting soft power on the thought of the Prophet's family and heritage, which was in the third axis. The conclusion includes the most important results extracted from this study.
