Title: AWAITING EDUCATIONAL ROLE IN HUMAN'S PERFECTION
Abstract: Awaiting, in the sense of expecting for a better future and dissatisfying with the present situation is one of the main educational elements in Shi'i creeds. Shi'is are of the opinion that this ideal future is not that of a limited number of people; rather it is a Divine promise for all human beings to lead them to their ultimate and Divine perfection. It goes without saying, however, that realization of such an objective requires its own mechanisms and rules which should be taken into account in each of individual and social realms so that a proper and suitable ground may be provided for this Divine ideal to be realized. Explaining and analyzing the meaning of awaiting, some hadiths in this concern will be quoted as confirmation. Then, the main mechanisms of awaiting and characteristics of the awaiting individual and society as well as the main educational elements of the awaiting generation in two spheres of family and society will be described. What that may be considered as the result of this theory is fruits of educating the awaiting generation which will be, relying on statements of the Supreme Leader, described.
