The Quranic Strategies in Religious Education

Educative activities must necessarily enjoy a consistency and a certain orientation so that they can properly perform the grand mission of education. Therefore, one of the most basic issues is the recognition of strategies and orientations of Islam in educating human beings. Accordingly, we obtained the four following strategies by investigating the holy Quran: glorification; reverence; explanation; annunciation and warning. These are determining the orientation of the educative activities. Here, we have considered these strategic goals under specific titles; these titles are: free will; validity; commitment; moderation. We then have dealt with explaining each of them, concluding that the path of human education from Quranic viewpoint is covered by observing the right ordering of these four steps.
