  7. Abstract:
  8. In today’s advanced world it was only in 1970s that business ethics emerged. However, some of the dimensions of business are dated back to the medieval times. Business ethics has also part of its roots in Greek civilization BC and the orient civilization.The explaining religion of Islam and verses of Quran contain a great deal of codes of conduct on honesty, loyalty, prohibition of treason, bribery and use of short weights, respect for justice, etc. Therefore, we, as Iranians and heirs of the ancient Iranian and Islamic civilizations, shall put more effort into revitalization of moral codes. The purpose of this research is to express the importance of ethics in business and also the expression of organizational culture dimensions (GLOBE) and the power of organizational culture in institutionalizing ethics in business as an efficient competitive advantage. This study seeks to find a relationship between organizational culture dimensions and implementation of business ethics and also the most important organizational culture dimension in improving ethics in business. Another objective of this study is the localization of ethical principles. Many moral commandments can be adapted from the Quran as Muslims' handbook. The secondary objective of the study is to show the difference between law and ethics. The research suggests that there is no law enforcement guarantees for ethics in business
