IMPORTANCE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF SIRA IN CREATING AN UPBRINGING ROLE MODEL

By
Melisa Zukić

Abstract

There are some differences in understanding the terms: upbringing example/role model/ideal. An upbringing example points at other people's success. He provides a basis for practical work. An upbringing role model is a person who puts into practice things he suggests to other people. Practice leads to positive results and success. A role model is based on identification. A role model is one to follow. An upbringing ideal encourages, fills with enthusiasm, gives meaning to life and work, shapes us morally and ethically. The exsistence of an upbringing model would be meaningless without a man who managed to match it. He is the Prophet, s.a.v.s.. He is El-Insanul kamil, Perfect/Universal man. Following his example we can reach for an upbringing ideal. Being engaged in upbringing process, we understand that through an early developmental period children prefer role models characteristic for that period. We extracted a model for success from the Prophets biography and then we deduced some upbringing examples and models specific for developmental periods that lead towards an upbringing ideal. Key words: Pedagogy; Sira; Developmental psychology; Example; Role model; Ideal; El-Insanul kamil; psychical life periods .
