Abstract:
One of the important elements of the Islamic education system is the stages of education. The discussion of the stages of training prepares the ground for presenting a gradual training program considering the growth of the pupil or the difficulty of the content or both cases. This program is logically designed such that the trainer can easily provide the content for the pupil and can easily reach the educational goals; and the pupils can easily receive the training content and achieve high levels of training as well. Educational stages may be different based on different educational schools. This article examines the stages of Islamic education, using a "descriptive and analytical" method, studying Islamic texts, especially the Holy Quran and the narrations of the innocent Imams, and presents the conclusion in four important periods and eight stages. The four periods are: preparation, training, strengthening and protection, and the eight stages are: 1. Preparing the ground, 2. Upbringing or training the body, 3. Education, 4. Vocational training, 5. Cultivating thinking or reasoning. 6. Experience, 7. Support and stabilization, 8. Protection.
