1- Characteristics and Constituents

It is mostly accepted that every education, regardless of its type or shape, has a certain amount of constituents and characteristics which would help it fulfil its mission. These constituents and characteristics rest, most of the time, on bases and principles that govern them, on objectives and goals that shape them, on determinants and factors that influence them, and on mechanisms and methods that guide them. If  the parental education practised in Muslim countries does not lie outside this definition, my concern here is mainly to focus on the analysis of the major principles, objectives, determinants and methods pertaining to this education.
