<span class="content1"><strong>AIMS OF EDUCATION PART-3</strong> <br /> <br /> <strong>Intellectual and mental improvement:</strong> <br /> <br /> A basic aim of education is that the ability to think, discern (fiqh) keeps improving in a student. The ability of the student should be such that the student should be able to solve any problem with his/her inherent ability. This is possible only when the teacher does not restrict the thinking of the individual to the confines of the school/college but encourages the student to think about the whole world. The teacher should explain the same thing with different illustrations and in different ways. <br /> <br /> <strong>The awakening of the understanding:</strong> <br /> <br /> The ultimate result of all good acts is good and of all bad acts is bad. One of the aims of education is that the understanding of the student is awakened, he/she recognizes the good and the bad, differentiate between truth and falsehood, decided between the suitable and the unsuitable, should be able to point out the pure and filthy and most of all recognize good as good and acquire/accept it and recognize what is bad as bad and avoid it. <br /> <br /> <strong>Aiming high:</strong> <br /> <br /> An aim of education is that the student should be ready to work hard and face all difficulties encountered while reaching the goal. The way a student struggles to solve a difficult academic problem, no difficulty at that time is able to stop the student; this in fact prepares the student to cross the ups and downs of life. Even the biggest obstacle seems small to the student in front of his/her courage and perseverance.<br /> <br /> Thorns and stony paths do not stop the student, eventually with the store of courage and high aim, the student crosses the most difficult paths and reaches the desired goal. The student does not stop on reaching one milestone, but immediately starts for another. The student does not rest after achieving one rung of ascent, but because of the store of courage and determination, still desires to travel for another; full with determination, the student keeps achieving one goal after another. <br /> <br /> <strong>Translation:</strong> <br /> <br /> Your abode is not the dome of the Sultan, <br /> You are a Shaheen, nest on the peaks of the heights.</span>
