Law is stable; the societies we are speaking of are progressive. The greater or less happiness of a people depends on the degree of promptitude with which the gulf is narrowed.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Stability is why society has an interest in marriage.
Happy are those few nations that have not waited till the slow succession of human vicissitudes should, from the extremity of evil, produce a transition to good; but by prudent laws have facilitated the progress from one to the other!
In my view, stability only comes with a government that is elected by the people and works for the people.
Islam's laws are fixed and that is why Islam is stable.
The happiness of society is the end of government.
Back then, a half-a-century ago, the situation was totally different. Economically, we were practically on our knees, and politically, we were still excluded from the community of nations. Today, in this respect, we have a totally different and much more stable basis.
Ours is a stable country. Ours is a sensible country. And ours is a fundamentally decent country.
The happiness of every country depends upon the character of its people, rather than the form of its government.
If social stability goes pear-shaped, you have a choice between anarchy and dictatorship. Most people will opt for more security, even if they have to give up some personal freedom.
A society deadened by a smothering network of laws while finding release in moral chaos is not likely to be either happy or stable.
