Abstract
The imagination (idea) of brotherhood in the Quran had formed as a social efficient and effective institution in space of ignorance’s zealotry and nervousness in the time of revelation the Quran. This imagination was specific idea of brotherhood based on blood and relatively relations or ethnic and tribal alliances or social and cultural norms that regardless of value or anti-value, right or wrong was common in ignorance Arab’s live. With the appearance of Islam and revelation of the holy Quran, like many other imaginations, the meaningful change was created in the social thought. Methods of cultural anthropology seek to examine the emergence and penetration this idea in the mind of Arabs before the Quran. In the first stage the imagination of brotherhood checks in space of ignorant.
In the second step the alternation of Quran is checking in this imagination and in third step extracts the ultimate understanding of Quran for all times and all cultures. It seems that alternations that created in this imagination by Quran, can be studied in seven layers that necessarily doesn’t have any chronological order, but is deduced from the text of the Quran. According to the concept of brotherhood and its root and offer a certain sense of it; analysis the of positive and negative historical samples; promoting of the concept of brotherhood to the level of connection with the chosen people and prophets; directing the brotherhood to a real and valuable communication, alternating the social imagination of brotherhood, breaking the domination of ignorantly brotherhood, and presenting a right suggestion for the brotherhood imagination based on faith and morality to gain the felicity and god’s satisfaction that the result of it is a relaxed atmosphere, full of support and companionship, and even self-sacrifice among them that the Muslim community turned to an attractive focus to attract the hearts. Using of this Qur'anic doctrine in today's busy world that is at a steep of moral decline, both creates actual links between the society and joins the hearts in the way of growth and perfection.
