The word "Tarbiya" is an Arabic word that
linguistically means the increase, growth, and loftiness. Conventionally,
Tarbiya means the development and the training of people in various aspects. The
word is commonly used to describe children upbringing as the parents provide
them with physical, educational, moral and spiritual needs to help them grow up
and become useful parties in the society.
MAS aspires to raise a generation of committed and disciplined Muslims who will
spread the message of Islam and implement the Movement's vision in all fields of
Islamic work In MAS terminology, the word Tarbiya means the systematic
development and training of members and potential members. It is a continuous
and comprehensive process of developing all aspects of the Muslim
character/personality, i.e., spiritual, intellectual, moral, social, and
physical. The word Islamic Tarbiya implies that the development process conforms
to Islamic guidelines and standards. This means that the goals that the process
is supposed to achieve in individuals conform to Islamic teachings and the means
used to establish such goals are Islamic or Islamic compliant means. The Tarbiya
process exceeds the level of individuals to the level of the group trying to
establish team sprit that Islam teaches such as love, brotherhood, and mutual
trust.
Tarbiya is the cornerstone of MAS comprehensive reform methodology, and the
Tarbiya department is one of the permanent departments in the organization. This
approach traces its origin to the Qur’an and to the teachings of Prophet
Muhammad, peace be upon him, as he invested a lot of effort in Tarbiya for his
companions. As a result of his effort, he not only left a great message, the
message of Islam, but also left a great generation that carried the message and
spread it all over the land and moved humanity from darkness to light. It is the
quality of people that the Prophet nurtured that constitute the secret behind
the miracle of Islam. Also, Islamic history proves the effectiveness and
relevance of this methodology. Imam Hassan Al-Banna, the founder and the leader
of a great Islamic movement, the Muslim Brotherhood, said, "Whenever you find
the good Muslim, you find with him all means for great success."message of
Islam, but also left a great generation that carried the message and spread it
all over the land and moved humanity from darkness to light. It is the quality

Islamic movement, the Muslim Brotherhood, said, "Whenever you find the good
Muslim, you find with him all means for great success."
MAS delivers a rigorous educational curriculum to its current and potential
members that focuses on the systematic development of the Muslim individual, the
Muslim family and the Muslim community. The focus of Tarbiyah is to groom
members who are distinguished, strive for excellence, have a sense of mission,
self-motivated, conduct a balanced life, live in peace with themselves and their
environment, be equipped with the necessary knowledge, understanding, and skills
to make a difference in the society by taking an active role, both individually
and collectively in the reform process that seeks to make the betterment of our
community, our country, and the whole world.
The Tarbiyah process also aims to put members and potential members on the path
of constant self-purification and self-development, and instill in them the
passion for truth, righteousness, and justice/fairness. |
