      The subject of morality in Zoroastrianism is of great importance as it is one of the main features of this religion, one of the most influential periods in Zoroastrian religious literature of the Sassanid Empire; it has witnessed a particular style of moral literature that flourishes today. They are known as guidelines. Guidelines are of the ethics of practice that, with certain attributes, attempt to guide Zoroastrian texts to ethics. In other words, the concept of ethics and its study to institutionalize ethics in both the social and the individual in Minog i-Khrad, one of the most important ancient ethical books, has been addressed in response to questions; environmental ethics, ethics, Associate education ethics, managerial and economic ethics are among the most important ethical teachings in this book. In this essay, we have attempted to extract the whole system of individual and social morality from Minog i-Khrad. The first chapter deals with some general concepts and concepts, such as ethics, individual ethics, social ethics, etc. Then the second chapter deals with what the guidelines are and in this chapter thirteen guidelines are introduced and expressed.Chapter 3 discusses the ethical schools and the impact of Zoroastrian beliefs on Minog i-Khrad.
