The idea of doing the right thing at the right moment, given the circumstances, is the most fundamental tenet of human society. In the past, justice was thought to be equivalent to virtue. Aristotle states that justice is the ultimate ideal for humans and that it should guide all of their decisions and actions. The terms "justice" and "moral virtue" in Aristotelian Ethics refer to two distinct ideas: moral justice and legal justice. Universal justice refers to the way in which laws carry out legal justice. However, moral justice—also referred to as specific justice—must be considered in terms of equality, impartiality, and fairness. According to Aristotle, the greatest virtue is justice. According to Aristotle, the goal of society is to ensure that every citizen lives in happiness, or that they experience Eudaimonia. The fundamental aspects of Eudaimonia are human goodness and enjoyment. Rationality, on the other hand, is necessary for virtue since it results in a full understanding and the subsequent growth of the individual. This is achieved by the government's provision of laws that citizens must follow and uphold, which gives rise to the justice ethic. The main objective of this paper is to evaluate the dominant moral paradigms, which are primarily patriarchal in nature, and develop a framework that is equitable and beneficial to all of mankind while also discussing the special perspective of women. The concept of justice revolves around the idea of universalizability, which refers to applying comparable moral standards to precisely comparable circumstances, whether they turn into hypothetical or real-world scenarios that make sense.
