Meaning
معنی۱
امانت is one of the load-bearing beams of Iranian ethics. The Quran has a verse called آیة الامانة (the Verse of the Trust, Quran 33:72) where God offers "the trust" to the heavens and the earth, they refuse, and the human accepts. Iranian religious thought treats the verse as the founding moment of moral responsibility: to be human is to carry an امانت.
