Chastity (Ifaf) is one of the significant moral teachings in the Holy Quran that has considerable aspects. Following the virtue of chastity has uplifting social and individual effects so studying the issue and its aspects are the matters of importance. Thus, I aim to develop a statement analysis of chastity in Surah al-Nisa. Applying the technique of scientific content analysis, I would analyze and assess the statements containing the issue of chastity, classify subjects, and make a logical pattern based on the issue. Results indicated that Chastity in this chapter has considerable aspects in various fields of manner, speech, finance, Self-control, and both man and woman should obey its rules. Chastity is not only defined in terms of women's manners but due to the general rule of human purity, should be applied equally to men and women. The quantitative analysis reveals that chastity has a high frequency in the statements related to manners, so chastity is a virtue that should be represented in manners.

There are ambiguities in the relationship between the approach of Islamic philosophical ethics and contemporary moral philosophy due to semantic similarity. This article tries to remove any ambiguity in this field by carefully analyzing their relationship in a historical and descriptive way. Based on the findings of the study, both cases include normative ethics, but some topics of contemporary philosophy of ethics, such as meta-ethics and applied ethics, are not in Islamic philosophical ethics or have very little emergence. Islamic philosophical ethics has a subject-oriented approach and is a subset of virtue ethics, but most contemporary philosophers have an action-oriented approach to ethics. Unlike Islamic philosophical ethics, modern moral systems are secular and are not even assigned to followers of a particular religion. Finally, it will be noted that in recent decades, new approaches to ethics can be seen among Muslim philosophers. The result of this change in attitude is the greater independence of Islamic philosophical ethics from the Greek Aqaba and a greater connection to Islamic religious teachings.
