Fundamental knowledge is one of the most important components of seminary
The Head of Iran’s seminaries added,” Fundamental knowledge is one of the most important components of the seminary, and great scientists have emerged in this institution. In the past, all sciences and knowledge were studies in the seminary, since rational, traditional, and natural sciences were taught and researched in the seminary, but after the separation and specialization of sciences, these fields were separated.”
Great figures have emerged in Qom seminary
A member of the Supreme Council of the Seminaries noted,” The second component of the seminary includes ethics and practical wisdom and long-standing moral and religious traditions in various fields.
