The prophetic saying: «اللهم إنما أنا بشر أغضب کما یغضب البشرر أ أضَر کمرا یرَر البشر فمن لعنته من أحرد مرن أمتر فاجعلهرا لره زکرا أ ضحمر » has been mentioned in Sunni books as one of the prayers said by the prophet. Some of the terms used in this prayer have been reported in various forms. But the originality of the saying has been adopted by all scholars. This saying has served as the basis for the Sunnis’ method in studying ethics، prophethood، authority and anthropology. It should be investigated that whether this saying is authentic or it has been changed by the Hadith forgers due to various reasons. Given the prophet’ s explicit warning about the Hadith forgery and the possibility of attributing false speeches to the prophet، this essay tries to inspect the authenticity of this Hadith from the two aspects of its content and isnad and will try to evaluate the Hadith by comparing it with other Hadiths and Quran. It seems that the first part of the Hadith is original and valid، but the second part which says: « فمن لعنته من أحد من أمت فاجعلهرا لره زکرا أ ضحمر » is gorged and has been fabricated for the purpose of purifying some of the Companions.

One of the ontological issues discussed in the philosophy of Ethics is the question about the structures of ethical propositions. That means، it is discussed about whether the sentence like: “ telling the truth is good. ” is declarative or exclamatory. Does human being discover the goodness of telling the truth or he makes it good? The present study، investigating the Avicenna’ s works using a descriptive-analytic method، proves that، based on some of his ideas like the the dependence of moral rules on Shariah and the popularity of ethical propositions، he supported the idea that man is the one creating ethical propositions. However، some of his other opinions such as: placing the title of ethics in the category of philosophy and also believing in the arguablity of ethical propositions، prove that he supported the nonobjectivity of ethical propositions. Based on all his opinions، one can conclude that his arguments supporting the objectivity of ethical propositions are stronger.

The aim of this study is to determine the elements of the curriculum based on Mafatih Al-Hayat Ayatollah by Javadi Amoli. This research was conducted using qualitative approach with descriptive-analytic method and by using the available resources tries to describe and analyze the elements of the curriculum in Mafatih's Al-Hayat. In this regard، according to the definitions of the elements of the curriculum، the four elements of the objectives، content، methods and evaluation as fundamental components of curriculum development were selected. Then the book Mafatih al-Hayat was reviewd in order to identify the subjects which can be applied in curriculum implementation، from the book which is full of Islamic concepts. The research results showed that the important goals which should be considered in education، includ the goals of cognitive، social، political، economic، biological، ethical and thelogical ones. These goals can be achieved through the teaching of religious subjects، such as Quran، Hadith، Fiqh، religious poetry، social skills، religious laws، craft، sport and healthy recreation، physical and mental health and environmental health. Also، the notions such as reflection، scientific dialogue، discussion، forming academic institutions، consulting and tourism are emphatically used as teaching methods. Finally، the fourth important element، namely the evaluation component، focuses on leniency and tolerance and avoiding a crackdown on learners.

The goal of this study is to study the relationship between moral virtues and educational status of students of ninth grade in the city of Khoramabad. Accordingly، 350 people (175 male and 175 female students) were selected by multistage cluster sampling among high school students in first grade in the city of Khorramabad. The selected students were asked to complet Manavipour moral development (2012) and Swanson and Hill moral behavior (1993) questionnaires. The educational status of students based on their semester average was measured. The data was analyzed using correlation and regression. Results showed that there is a significant correlation between the moral virtues and educational status and a negative correlation between moral development and educational status. Also، educational status wasn’ t good predictor for student's moral behavior. Accordingly، we can say that it is nessecery to teach moral virtues and pay attention to their development in teenage time so that the consequences in terms of academic progress appear in them. But do not rely solely on the educational status of students in moral development.

Professional Ethics is a subject that had been addressed throughout the history، but its importance has increased in recent centuries. While entering the third millennium it can be easily said that the professional ethic is an important issue in the sociology of work and career. Organizational and behavioral sciences، including the psychology and the social sciences، which include sociology of work and professions، have analyzed various aspects of the work ethic. In line with social analysis، the main questions of this study are: 1. What is the nature and extent of its four components available in work ethic among employees of governmental departments? 2. What are organizational and social precedences? That is، what are the influencing factors affecting professional ethics? 3. What are the consequences of ethics? That is the professional and organizational effects of work? The precedences or the factors affecting the work ethic، include seven social and organizational variables: gender، age، marital status، education level، type of organization، type of employment and job experience. Also، the four organizational and occupational variables، namely job satisfaction، organizational commitment، motivation and dismotivation to work are considered as the consequences، . In this study to evaluate the subject of job work ethic the questionnaire Petit et al. (1991)، which consists of four components، has been used. The results showed that none of the seven social، organizational variables affected the workers in the governmental organizations of the city of Najafabad. The significant relationship of professional ethics with four variables of work or organizational consequences indicates that the work ethic causes to increase motivation and job satisfaction and organizational commitment، and also can lead to the reduction of alienation from work. Research models using path analysis test result، indicates that job satisfaction and organizational commitment and work ethic through alienation of labor، have affected the motivation of the employees.
