Summary
Great thinkers worked for the progress of their nations, promoting enlightenment, eradicating illiteracy, and establishing schools. In Azerbaijan, representatives of the “Molla Nasreddin” literary school played a key role in raising public awareness, guiding people from ignorance to knowledge and from darkness to light. In literature, the figures of the Devil and Satan symbolize negative human traits; analyzing these characters helps understand harmful and hateful human behaviors. Humans are complex beings, possessing qualities of angels, devils, and Satan alike. Higher morality, ethics, and values refine human character; morality is acquired through one’s own ethical development. Proper application of ethics and morality in education and upbringing ensures personality development. In the modern world, combating moral degradation requires the advancement of the humanities, creative educational models, and education grounded in moral and ethical values. Ultimately, morality-oriented education contributes to the comprehensive development of the individual and the formation of a perfect personality.
