Abstract
Prophets, may peace be upon them, are considered examples or models for people to follow and imitate. They are the beacons of guidance and lights in times of darkness. Their sayings and traditions and good deeds are sources of inspiration for people. In their missions, the prophets had faced a lot of events which aroused their feelings and emotions All these together had left their marks on their course of life. The prophets' unpleasant strong emotions included anger, fear, repentance, despair and anxiety. This study sought to understand these affective emotions from a Qur'anic perspective, and diagnose the personalities of the prophets through these agitations. Further, the study aimed at identifying the extent of these prophets' infallibility and the educational values which we can draw from these incidents of emotions. The study began with a definition of affective emotions according to psychologists and religious scholars. Then it provided a classification of these emotions. It also dwelt on the human side of the prophets as well as their infallibility. The study emphasized that the emotions which the prophets had experienced did not affect their infallibility in their conveyance of the divine message. After that, the study moved to detail the most outstanding emotions which the prophets had experienced. Of these, the study highlighted the emotion of fear and its psychological significance. The researcher, in this regard, introduced the scenes which illustrated this emotion of the prophets. The researcher then provided a discussion of the most important educational values we can learn from these emotional scenes. The study also tackled other unpleasant emotions which the prophets had lived. These included anger, repentance, despair, smiling, grimness and sadness. The researcher also showed the psychological significance of these emotions and their Qur'anic scenes. This was in addition to the positive educational values of these emotions.
يعد الأنبياء عليهم السلام النماذج التي يقتدي ويتأسى بها الناس , فهم منارات الهدى ومصابيح الدجى , جعل الله تعالى أقوالهم وأفعالهم محلاً للتأسي والاقتداء . ولقد أصاب الأنبياء عليهم السلام في مواجهتهم للأحداث والوقائع كثيرٌ من الانفعالات النفسية التي تركت آثاراً في مسيرة دعوتهم, كالغضب, والخوف, والندم, واليأس, وغيرها من الانفعالات. فجاءت هذه الدراسة المتواضعة لتتناول هذه الانفعالات النفسية من منظور قرآني ودراسة شخصية الأنبياء من خلال هذه الانفعالات , ثم معرفة مدى تأثيرها على عصمتهم عليهم السلام , والقيم التربوية المستفادة منها. فعرّفت أولاً الانفعالات عند علماء الشرع والنفس, وبيّنت أقسامها, ثم تكلمت عن بشرية الأنبياء عليهم السلام. ثـم تحدثـت عـن عصـمة الأنبياء , وبيّنت أن الانفـعالات التي حدثـت لهم لم تؤثر على عصـمتهم. ثم بدأت الحديث بالتفصيل عن أبرز الانفعالات التي حدثت للأنبياء عليهم السلام, فذكرت انفعال الخوف ودلالته النفسية, والمشاهد التي ذكرها القرآن الكريم لهذا الانفعال عند الأنبياء, ثم تحدثت عن أهم القيم التربوية لهذا الانفعال. وذكرت باقي الانفعالات التي حدثت للأنبياء في سبعة فصول وهي: انفعال الغضب والندم, واليأس, والتبسم والعبوس, والحزن, وذكرت دلالة هذه الانفعالات النفسية, والمشاهد القرآنية لها, وعرّجت على القيم التربوية والإيجابية لهذه الانفعالات.
