Role Models in the Noble Qur’an Enas Jalal Mahmoud Al-Qassas.

This is done by repeatedly discussing role models, illustrating them, and presenting good and bad role models as practical examples for people to imitate or avoid. The inductive-deductive approach has been used in this study. Some of the most important of the research results are: The concept of a role model carries a number of descriptive and actual meanings and connotations, some of which are directed at describing the state of the role model (whom others imitate) and some are directed at describing the person who is imitating the role model. All of them form a comprehensive meaning that revolves around performing the same as the role model. The Holy Qur’an pays special attention to the personal and family dimension; reform starts from the individual himself and then those close to him (his wife and his offspring). Showing good role models and urging people to follow them, indicating bad examples and warning against them is a Qur’anic method for those who wish to take role models as a method in calling for good morals.
