Abstract
This research is devoted to the Qur'anic attitudes of Ahmad Jam Namaghi (440-536) in education in accordance with Meftah-al-Najat. This paper, with an analytical-descriptive method, begins with a fresh look at the introduction of the other aspect of this ancient mystical work. The abundant use of the verses of the Quran in the text implies Ahmad Jam’s unbreakable connection to the Holy Qur'an and its implication.This article seeks to present the religious teachings and education of Ahmad Jam to express the Qur'anic interpretations and approaches of the Sheikh concerning the related points. The result of the research is that the author intends to express the Quranic and religious teachings in a simple way, without the mystical expressions that can be understood by a particular group. While sometimes he makes specific interpretations of the verses that contain his own reflections, thus inducing his thoughts in the context of these cultural teachings and religious teachings, as if occasionally he would force him to accept his words. Following adherence to the Prophetic Shari'a, praying, reading the Holy Qur'an, leaving the friendship of the world, companionship with good people and Self-purification are the most valuable teachings that have been used in the book of the Meftah-al-Najat, in the light of pure purity for the paths of worshipers.
