Free will enhancement: Earlier than behavior, there is will

Author(s): Maryam Al-zendani and Sefa Bulut*

During this journey, an individual must fulfill many religious, personal, or societal aspirations. All this can only be achieved through positive behavior that pushes one towards achieving these goals and aspirations, and the basis for this behavior is free, strong will. The will drives behavior towards practical application rather than mere desire. Individuals can be considered as piles of interactive particles, and therefore nothing but material systems, or can be looked at as free beings with psychological qualities and mental skills. If it’s attempted to perceive humans in the first reduction method, there will be no place for free will. But the human and social sciences support the second way when exploring, the non- reduction method, and this, in turn, supports the hypothesis that there is free will. The subject of free will is shared by several disciplines, in addition to psychology, including philosophy, religion, sociology, and law. Specifically, free will is discussed considering the views of the different psychological schools. In this research, the aforementioned was reviewed and briefly tackled, but the main direction was to the significance of realizing this concept in psychological studies and educational applications, by inductively and deductively interpreting existing literature, because of its value reflected in individuals' behavior. Then, attempts to answer the question of how free will is built from an educationally Islamic perspective by mentioning several applications.
