Essay on Teaching as the Noble Profession



There are many professions which man has adopted according to his knowledge and ability. A person can adopt any profession or business. It depends upon his aptitudes and mental capability. All profession are equally important for the human development. But the teaching is the profession which has lead people on the high way of progress and prosperity. No development had been possible if there had been no teacher. All the sciences all the arts and crafts and all the civilizations and cultures are due to the teaching. In fact teaching is the noble profession let me call the teaching as prophetic profession, because invariably all prophets are teachers. They taught and preached the message of God. 

The importance and nobility of this profession is evident from a tradition of Holy Prophet (Peace by upon Him) in which he says “I have been sent to you as a teacher” in an other Hadith Holy Prophet (Peace by upon Him) says “He who is neither teacher nor student is not a Muslim” these sayings of Holy Prophet (Peace by upon Him) show the importance of teaching and learning and prove that a Muslim must be a associated with the process of teaching. Thus teaching is a great profession.

Teaching as a profession requires a great courage and moral strength, because it is not sound so far as financial side is concerned. But as regards the side of honour and dignity teaching is considered a noble and respected profession. In the east people always had awe and respect for this profession.

Teaching is a noble profession because it deals with the words of God, written on human hearts or in nature or in the Holy Books. All the secrets of the nature have been revealed by teacher to humanity. All the messages of God have been communicated by him to mankind. So the teacher is the source of knowledge and guidance for human being.

Teaching aims at enlightening and contentment of mind in men. Teaching broadens and illuminates the dark corners of human heart and mind. Teaching tries to show the humanity the road of progress and prosperity. Teaching does the work of character building. It refines the personality of man and rise in him the thirst for knowledge. Teaching tells man what is truth beauty and goodness. Through the guidance of teacher man drinks from the sources of truth beauty and goodness and tries to incorporate them in the life.

It is the profession of teaching which had enabled man to be scientist, doctor, philosopher, agriculturist, politician or lawyer. With the help of teacher a person leads a successful life. Teaching not only trains a person for material benefit but it also arranges moral, spiritual and religious training for man. Let me say that the teaching is the profession which shows man the road which leads him to the God.
