Abstract

As a result of this effort, comprehensive analyzes have emerged regarding educational problems, some of which are still up to date. Among the problems related with education that Ibn Hajar tries to solve are whether the children can be assigned by the teacher outside the purpose of learning and teaching or not, who may have the authority to employ the child, what are the responsibilities of the teacher as well as the foundation administrators for the student's continuation to school and the use of the beating as a method in the education of the child.
