Tahdhib and Aklaq
Moral Education:
Tahdhib comes from the word Hudhaba which means to train, clean, improve, and refine someone. So, Tahdhib means training and education for personal imporvement and refinement. In other words Tahdhib means moral education.
Akhlaq comes from the word Kahlaqa which means to create, shape, and mold. So, Akhlaq means naturally good temper, noble character, and good manners. Islam teaches us: "All people are on the Fitrah, true noble narure." (transmitted by Bukhari)
Environment meaning the people that surround us can impact us. The Quran (Holy Book) and Sunnah (Prophet's actons) teach us good morals and manners. It is very important for a Muslim to learn about Islamic Tahdhib and Akhlaq.
