THE ROLE OF ABU BAKR ZAKARIYYA AR-RAZI’S VIEWS ON THE “MEDIUM STANDARD” IN THE EDUCATION OF YOUTH

Abstract

This scientific article analyzes the moral views of Abu Bakr Zakariyya al-Razi on the “moderate” use of worldly pleasures. According to the thinker, a person should not go to extremes in pleasures, but should maintain moderation based on the criteria of reason and justice. Taking into account the different opportunities of classes in society, al-Razi justifies the existence of a separate “moderate” for each stratum. It is emphasized that the rich should stay away from oppression for the sake of humanity and justice, while the lower class should maintain a standard that does not harm their health. The article reveals the importance of al-Razi’s views on moderation in the upbringing of today's youth. It interprets such qualities as reason, justice, and compassion as the main criteria for a person. The author sheds light on the role of the thinker's ideas in modern society and their importance in shaping the spiritual maturity of young people on a scientific basis.
