This strategy has been done through several measures, one of which is teaching prayer and promoting it on different occasions in order to create an Islamic lifestyle among individuals. In this article, an attempt is made to methodically and analytically study the propositions expressed in the prayers of the Ahl al-Bayt (AS), the role and functions of this religious and natural tool in educating the people of the Islamic society, and to identify and extract the general model and method. Imam educational plans should be explained for how to guide individuals and the Islamic society. The special feature of this article is the use of "content analysis" method in order to present the system governing this prayer, extracting the expressive forms and orientations of each hadith, analyzing the focus points of each prayer and then thematically classifying these themes. Which is very useful and necessary to discover educational strategies and their localization in the educational system of the society and to promote the Islamic lifestyle. The results of this study indicate that the dominant approach to these hadiths is educational and training that has been followed using the expressive forms of "glorification" and "description". In this prayer, 12 expressive forms have been used to transmit the epistemological teachings and train a healthy and righteous Islamic society, whose attention and use in educational systems and programs, causes the growth and prosperity of individuals and ultimately the Islamic society. Brought. Keywords: Ahl Al-Bayt (AS); Hadith; Education; Training; Content Analysis Method Optimal Models of Education and Training based on the Content Analysis of the Hadiths of Shiite Imams 28 International Journal of Multicultural and Multireligious Understanding (IJMMU) Vol. 7, No. 11, December 2020 Introduction Although many scholars and scholars in the field of Islamic studies have tried to recognize the words of the Shiite Imams (AS) and examine the principles and principles of their views, but what has been proposed so far,most descriptions and interpretations of hadiths narrated by them with the prevailing view of biography and tradition It has been a painting. It should be said that the most important necessity of such research is a more accurate explanation of the role and functions of the Imam in the Islamic society and his position of guidance and acculturalization. The issue of Imamate, guardianship and leadership of the Islamic society is one of the most important and fundamental issues of the religion of Islam, as it has been introduced in many narrations as one of the basic and fundamental issues of the religion of Islam. In the book "Wasa'il al-Shi'ah", 39 hadiths (see: Hor Ameli, 1387, vol. 1, pp. 13-29) and in the book "Mustadrak al-Wasa'il", 17 hadiths (see: Nouri, 1408 AH, vol. 1, pp. 69-75) are quoted with this theme. It is said that the foundation of Islam is based on several issues and the most important of them is Imamate and Wilayah. Among them, a hadith has been narrated from Imam Baqir (AS) in this regard, in which he points out the importance of the issue of guardianship and says: "Islam is based on prayer, zakat, Hajj, fasting and guardianship. Asks about the most important of these matters and the Imam replies: "Province is because the province is the key to other issues and the governor has the role of leading and guiding the people to other matters" (Hor Ameli, 2008, vol. 1, p. 13) In this regard, it seems necessary to explain the views and theoretical and doctrinal foundations of each character, to study and analyze the content of his words, because by understanding the discourse of each person and the logical arrangement of his words together and analyzing their content can be He achieved a comprehensive understanding of that person's views on the subject under study and the depths of his thoughts, as the Commander of the Faithful (pbuh) emphasizes on this issue and says: "Speak to be known, because man is under his tongue. It is hidden” (Seyed Razi, 2007, Hekmat 392). Therefore, since several other books and articles have examined the authenticity of the documents of these narrations and prayers, in this article, this issue has been avoided and an attempt has been made to evaluate these texts by using new approaches to the field of narrative sciences. Be analyzed. A point that should not be neglected is the reason for choosing the method of content analysis to discover the educational patterns used in prayers. In fact, one of the characteristics of the words of the Imams (as) as the true bearers of the religion and the main audience of the Holy Qur'an is that their words have an appearance and an interior, and sometimes this interior may continue to several inner layers. Therefore, it seems that one of the appropriate and scientific research methods to discover the inner layers of the appearances and meanings of the verses of the Qur'an and the words of the Imams (AS) is to use the method of quantitative and qualitative content analysis. One of the capabilities of this method is to expand, classify, classify, and present the concepts, themes, and categories obtained during content analysis tables in the form of tables, graphs, and models. It should be said that this method is very effective and practical in the field of humanities, especially theology, which are faced with the detailed development of knowledge. The Function of Prayer in Education God, as the Lord of all the worlds, undertakes the training of every creature, and advances all creatures with their different natures, to their worthy perfection, and pours out His grace to them according to their talent and according to their condition. But regarding man, he has placed a blessing on him and has entrusted part of his work in education to him and has made man free to choose good and evil (Holy Quran: 3/23). Optimal Models of Education and Training based on the Content Analysis of the Hadiths of Shiite Imams 29 International Journal of Multicultural and Multireligious Understanding (IJMMU) Vol. 7, No. 11, December 2020 God, in His educational system, created man as the essence of existence and honored him (Holy Qur'an: 9/14) and gave him the highest capacities and talents to achieve human perfection in the shadow of worship and worship of God: (Qur'an Cream: 57/56). He also gave Satan respite and permission to tempt and invite evil, but in return he sent his ambassadors to the people with the strongest and most eloquent invitations and eloquent statements to call them to him. The heavenly books along with the divine prophets have been revealed for this purpose (Holy Quran: 2.84) and the purpose of the principle of resurrection has been announced by the Holy Prophet (PBUH) (Klini, 1417 AH, p. 6). After the Messenger of God (PBUH), his infallible successors have always been the standard bearers of the path of guidance and education of human beings and for this purpose have used different models and methods of education. In order to understand the nature of the educational methods used by them, it is first necessary to get acquainted with the general definitions of these methods: A) Ethical Methods: In this method, in order to distance people from bad attributes and bring them closer to virtues, good and bad attributes are examined one by one, and by relying on Quranic verses and Islamic hadiths, the advantages and disadvantages of each, especially the results and consequences on Each of them will be charged in the Hereafter (whether the torment of Hell or the endless blessings of Paradise), and each of them will be characterized by one of the five rules of religion, and with this division into the circle of rules and issues. Jurisprudence has been introduced and most of its practical limits are considered, while its psychic aspect is not much considered and sometimes it is introduced as forgivable (Ansari, 1371, p. 198). B) Mystical Methods: In this way of thinking, without putting a finger on each of the attributes, the main emphasis is on purifying the interior and cutting off the roots of bad attributes and creating human virtues through the knowledge of the soul and God and complete cessation from other than Him. Before focusing on the consequences of the Hereafter, attention is paid to the principle of human perfection, which is the true knowledge of oneself and God, and relies on the element of love and affection for the origin of existence. C) Philosophical Methods: In this method, the struggle against moral vices and the realization of human dignity is done through the tools of reason and with reason about the good and bad of actions, as well as explaining and emphasizing the fact that desirable attributes are existential and are the effects of existence.

  • Outline of Sufism: the Essentials of Islamic Spirituality Appears As One of Our Selections in the Perennial Philosophy Series
    World Wisdom The Library of Perennial Philosophy The Library of Perennial Philosophy is dedicated to the exposition of the timeless Truth underlying the diverse reli- gions. This Truth, often referred to as the Sophia Perennis— or Perennial Wisdom—finds its expression in the revealed Scriptures as well as in the writings of the great sages and the artistic creations of the traditional worlds. Outline of Sufism: The Essentials of Islamic Spirituality appears as one of our selections in the Perennial Philosophy series. The Perennial Philosophy Series In the beginning of the twentieth century, a school of thought arose which has focused on the enunciation and expla- nation of the Perennial Philosophy. Deeply rooted in the sense of the sacred, the writings of its leading exponents establish an indispensable foundation for understanding the timeless Truth and spiritual practices which live in the heart of all religions. Some of these titles are companion volumes to the Treasures of the World’s Religions series, which allows a comparison of the writings of the great sages of the past with the perennialist authors of our time.

The pertinent passage begins on the left-hand page, seven lines down from the top: It is the month of Ramadan in which the Qur’an was revealed, as a guide to humanity, and clear proofs for guidance and distinguishing right from wrong. And whoever among you is present, they should fast in the month; and whoever is sick or on a journey, should fast on other days. God wants ease for you and does not want hardship for you; but to complete the period of fasting, and to glorify God for having guided you; and so that you might be grateful. (al-Baqara 2.185) 2.

  • A Mystic Union: Reaching Sufi Women Cynthia A
    A Mystic Union: Reaching Sufi Women Cynthia A. Strong Sufism or Islamic mysticism was incorporated into orthodox Islam during the early Middle Ages. Sufi worldview and values, however, can often differ markedly from the faith of other Muslims. In this article Cynthia Strong explains Sufism’s history and attraction and suggests a biblical response. The rhythmic, mnemonic dhikr or chant of Sufi Muslims draws us into a world little known or understood by Westerners. It is a call that differs from the formal Muslim salat, or prayer; a call to a spiritual rather than family lineage; a search for salvation that ends in self-extinction rather than paradise. It is a way of self-discipline in the midst of emotion; a poetry that informs the heart rather than the mind; an ecstatic experience and, for many, a spiritual union that results in supernatural powers. For Sufi Muslims, the Five Pillars and the Shari’ah law can be dry and lifeless. Longing for a direct experience with God and a spiritual advisor who can guide them through the temptations of this world, Sufis belong to a community that brings unique spiritual dimensions to formal Islam. In its vitality, simplicity, aesthetics and worldwide links, Sufism poses a significant challenge to Christian mission. To address it, we must reflect not only on Sufi history and practice but also understand all we are and have in Christ Jesus. Reaching Sufis may urge us to recover some of the spiritual dynamic inherent in the gospel itself. A SHORT HISTORY OF SUFISM Sufism is often described as one of three Sects within Islam along with Sunnis and Shiites.

    Letter from Moulana Salāmun Alaykum, May Allāh bless you and your families. Our sincerest condolences to the Imām of our time, Imām Mahdī (AJ), our great Marāji and scholars, the Muslim Ummah, and all the believers on the commemoration of Sayyidah Fātimah’s (a) shahādah. Dear brothers and sisters, as we all know Sayyidah Zahrā' (a) gave special attention to teaching, nurturing and raising her kids. In these days of the martyrdom of our beloved Sayyidah Fātimah (a), we learn different aspects of her life. From her sadaqah, to her prayers, to her connection to the Holy Quran, and to her special tasbih. By the grace of Allāh, our team of scholars and educators at Kisa Kids had the tawfīq to put together this booklet for the days of Fātimah (a). These 5 lessons will insha’Allah help our kids to benefit, learn few points from the life of our beloved lady Sayyidah Fātimah az-Zahra' (a), and do special activities for each lesson so that they can keep it and remember it. Whether it is through activities at the masjid or at home, take these days as an opportunity to learn from the life of our beloved Sayyidah Fātimah (a) and remember to connect each day with one of her characteristics so our children can build a long, life lasting connection to Sayyidah Zahra (a). This connection will help them build their Islamic character by learning about being generous, praying for others, helping the needy, and keep Allāh (swt) and Ahlul Bayt (a) as their lanterns throughout their journey in this life.
