Language, creativity, and education

The condition of creativity is the absorption of sciences and literature in a way that results in owning them, and that they become part of thought, imagination, and feeling, and they are only absorbed when in the mother tongue. This book has clarified what resulted from the Arabs' lack of knowledge of Arabic from imitation, weak production, and what resulted from their artificial use of foreign languages in education from backwardness, misguided efforts, and wasting money, lives, and efforts; because foreign languages are a barrier between non-native speakers and knowledge. For this reason, it was necessary to take learning through them as a path to progress, leaving them as followers. It also presented the results of research, experiments, and field studies that examined the effects of education in Arabic and foreign languages in the Arab world, and the experiences of peoples in education in their languages, and what it led to in terms of progress, development, and localization of knowledge. The aim of this presentation was to show that the future of the Arabs' scientific and cultural civilization depends on Arabization, and that some policies insisting on artificial languages in education serve non-educational purposes.
