The Domains of Education from the Viewpoint of Shahid Morteza Motahhari and Allamah Mohammad-Taqi Jafari

Human beings are entities with diverse dimensions and spheres. They possess both a soul and a body and are endowed with various insights, attitudes, and abilities. Since it is a process aimed at creating, flourishing, correcting, strengthening, moderating, and guiding these insights, attitudes, talents, and abilities across different dimensions of human existence (soul and body) to achieve ideal perfection, education deals with all these dimensions and spheres. Therefore, one of the key issues in education is identifying its various domains—that is, determining which subjects, talents, and capabilities should be flourished, corrected, moderated, strengthened, or guided. This study explores the domains of education from the viewpoint of Shahid Morteza Motahhari and Allamah Mohammad-Taqi Jafari. The research adopts an analytical-documentary method. Relevant texts were gathered through note-taking and analyzed using qualitative methods to collect the necessary data to achieve the research objectives. Examining Shahid Motahhari's educational views can identify physical, intellectual, devotional, scientific, instinctual, moral, aesthetic and artistic, social, technical, and industrial domains of education, and those related to will, heart, creativity, and innovation. Similarly, the study of Allamah Jafari's works reveals that the most important domains of education from his perspective are intuitive, scientific and cognitive, rational and philosophical, ethical, sapiential, and religious.
