Introduction: Individual education is a two-way communication that requires proper observation from both learner and educator to create a targeted and successful relationship. This study aimed to determine the characteristics of educator and learner in health education programs based on Islamic teachings.
Methods: This narrative review study was conducted through studying the Islamic reliable sources and teachings of the prophet and Imams regarding health and well-being in 2018. The sources used for this study included first-hand resources, religious books and relevant articles in authoritative scientific databases including Magiran, Noormages and SID from 1998 to 2018. The used keywords were Islam, health, education, learning and education.
Findings: Based on the findings, the educator's characteristics included praising, respecting the personality of individuals, specialty and commitment, practicing on the given teachings, observing justice in education, piety, observing order and awareness and so on. Moreover, the learner's characteristics were careful listening, seriousness, taking notes, respecting to educator, practicing on what was learned, consulting and
so on.
Conclusion: From the Islamic point of view, the characteristics of educator and learner include cultural, moral and social principles. In the Holy Qur’an, God has set traits for educators and learners, and in fact, has not left them in teaching and learning without principles and guidance. It is suggested that the educator and learner’s characteristics should be provided for them in the form of booklets based on Islamic teachings before teaching.
Keywords: Islam, Health education, Health educator
