This is a way to achieve the goals of the National Education Development Plan that put people at the center of the development.

Ethics also plays a vital role in humans’ happy lives to be with others by integrating principles into desirable attributes:
- Talent must be good in terms of themselves (Virtues of a gentleman 7), good at coexistence with others (Bases of sympathy 4) and good at working (Basis for success 4),
- Good people must be good because of the correct creation of charity (Grounds for accomplishing merit 3), good behavior (Good conduct 3) and avoidance from degeneration (Causes of ruin 6), and
- People are happy because they are happy to live as property owner (Deserved bliss of a layman).
