In addition to placing two important things as an educational orientation, namely achieving human perfection to qualitatively get closer to Allah SWT; and achieve human perfection to achieve happiness in this world and the hereafter. Educators are individuals who master a scientific discipline and are able to practice it as well as human figures who totally concentrate on the field of education. Students are placed as objects as well as subjects and set ideal criteria that students must strive for in order to be successful in education.
