Every idea has its method of execution. As for styles, they are specific non-permanent modes of performing the action. Styles within the subject of education means all types of directed activity that the teacher undertakes with the objective of assisting his students to realise the goal, namely communicating thoughts, concepts and diverse knowledge quickly and successfully. The teacher can choose diverse styles according to what suits the education situation, so he heeds the level of students and chooses the best style to achieve the goal e.g. styles such as debate, discussion, narration, story telling, problem solving, experimentation, direct practical exercises, etc. Often styles require one or more means to perform the action. Means and styles are not permanent; they change, evolve and ennumerate according to circumstances, people and possibilities. Just as a method must exist to execute an action, means and styles play an important role in executing this method. Accomplishing the action quickly and successfully depends upon innovating suitable means and styles to perform this action.

For instance, the method of education, namely the teacher’s rational address and the student’s intellectual learning was historically accomplished via means and styles such as pen and paper, or orally, and/or through imitation and writing. Nowadays means and styles are also employed to accomplish it but they differ from previous means and styles e.g. printed and moving pictures, audio cassettes, laboratory experiments, etc. The school must use appropriate means and styles to consolidate the rational method in students since this is the basis both for enlightened thinking as well as revival upon the Islamic basis. Enlightened thinking solves man’s greatest problem; and it also provides man the comprehensive idea about man, life and the universe, what preceded earthly life and what follows it, and its relationship with what preceded and what follows it. Thus he attains, via the rational method, the Islamic ‘aqeedah that is the basis for the State, Ummah and system in Islam.
