Cognitive Methods of Economic Education in the Teachings of the Qur'an
Keywords:
Quran, economics, economic education, cognitive methodsAbstract
Today, many Islamic countries face significant economic challenges, despite the fact that methods of economic education are addressed within the teachings of the Qur'an. Paying attention to these methods in economic planning can revive the glorious Islamic civilization and bring about public welfare and prosperity. The primary aim of this study is to identify the cognitive methods of economic education using a descriptive-analytical approach. The proposed strategies can typically serve as a model for confronting economic crises, threats, and constraints. Accordingly, recognizing and applying these methods in society is among the reasons that necessitate this research. Based on this, and in light of the luminous verses of the Holy Qur'an, one can achieve economic education by drawing upon cognitive methods such as: faith in God, belief in the Hereafter, observing piety, nurturing reason and intellect, proper insight, encouragement, warning, analogy, invitation to asceticism, seeking forgiveness, and gratitude.
