Symptoms of Civilization Disease in Modern Education

The way for nations to preserve their culture and civilization is through raising their new generations based on their own values. This requires a systematic education that will shape young generations and channel them in the desired direction.

The changing and developing environment of man makes it necessary to emphasize the stimulation and training of intelligence in the modern age.

Concepts such as honesty, honor, responsibility, purity, heroism, friendship do not make sense for today's generations. Sincere devotees are not as respected as museum objects. There seems to be no other life condition other than pleasure for modern people. Social relations have changed. The breakdown of the family leads to the upbringing of a restless generation. People look at the child as a nuisance and a nuisance. This is how the west ends itself. The preference of scientific data over intellectual whims in the shaping of social life and the victory of ideologies caused the defeat of civilization.

The symptoms of the disease of civilization are mixed. The individual could not keep up with the moral climate that modern democracy forced him to live in.

Despite the progress in medicine, hygiene and pedagogy, the level of intelligence could not increase. When irresponsibility, disobedience, and indulgence became a way of life, intelligence and physical strength declined. It is noteworthy that the expenditures made for education in the USA did not give the expected result. According to the mental health committees, the number of children who are too retarded to follow the lessons can reach hundreds of thousands.

The importance of research-based knowledge in modern life has increased even more today. The development of the free, creative and unique individuality becomes impossible when the oppressive factors of the environment and an unconscious education break the formation of new aspirations, ideals and goals, or when the repressive discipline of any absolute power or the stereotypical aims of a strong state are imposed on the citizens.

The main purpose in a real education is to create a strong awareness in the various relationships of a teacher's students with their environment, and to encourage the formation of new and creative goals.

While leading the educational transformation, “The old is not thrown away because it is old, it is thrown out because it is useless. New is not bought because it is new, it is bought because it is useful.'' is very enlightening about what we can get in the education of today's society and is important about what we should buy.

It is possible for people to continue their existence for centuries, not by remaining individual, but by becoming an Islamic Ummah. This is possible only on the condition that there is a generation capable of transmitting the heritage of civilization to the next generations in each era and this transfer process is carried out in each generational change. We must be moralized with Islamic moral values ​​and hold fast to Islamic civilization. There is a very deep and tight bond between faith and morality. The existence of one requires the other. It is not possible for us to progress, develop and lead the world with a morality other than the morality of the Qur'an. The extent of the damage that Western civilization has caused in the Islamic society does not end with counting. It is not possible to ensure the moral continuation of a society in which all kinds of harams are committed. The sins that have darkened the heart over time, the multitude of sins committed now causes the deviations to increase. No holiness binds the person anymore.

We should especially express that teachers, who are kneaded with the culture of Western civilization, do whatever they can to confuse the minds and hearts of students. We all know the policies of the past governments that still try to impose the secular mentality on the society by force. The dangerous dimensions of the spread of treachery, then, in a country where the plague of treason and abuse of power spread and affected thousands of citizens, many people did not hesitate to sacrifice their religion, belief, trust and homeland for the sake of their personal interests. We can see that the main source of treason is due to the deficiency in the education system, and especially in cases of bribery, deception and treason, it is perpetrated by the most multicultural people.

Modern education is based on price, not value. He does not have a problem with knowing the truth of things, he covets the use of things. Human beings aspire to the benefit and pleasure of knowledge, not its good. Never in human history has information been stored so much. But there has never been a time when it was so infertile. The increase in immoral knowledge did not bring the increase in virtue, but the "Taught Savage" did. Knowledge has become worldly, knowledge has been cut off from morality. Obtaining knowledge has become a job and a profession. Declaring man the measure of everything is in fact tantamount to saying that there is no measure of anything.

In general, our happiness or unhappiness is a reflection of the attitudes and behaviors of our ancestors to our present state. We will have the same impact on the lives of future generations after us. The value of tomorrow's society will be what we and our children are worth. Each age is the heir or victim of the previous one.
