The Factors Affect Human Personality in Qur'an

The human personality is shaped by genetical factors at birth, the environment he/she lives in and family education. Every human being's character and behaviours are different, just as their wants, actions and attributes. The human being opens its eyes to the world with a clean disposition. His emotions, desires and needs shape his behaviours. Factors which affect human behaviours are mentioned in the Qur'an. Some of these factors are internal to the human being by birth and some of them are external factors. Desire, will, mind, habits and temperament are internal factors that shape human behaviour, while the environment, satan and family education are the external factors. In this article, we will examine the positive or negative effects of these factors on human beings.
