| Research Abstract |
In Sino-Muslim society before Communist Revolution,Sino-Muslim students used to study 13 text-books in their theological schools. The 13 text-books learning was basic curriculum for bringing along spiritual leaders of Sino-Muslims. In curriculum of 13 text-books, the last part was called "Dao Xue" which means "learning toward Truth". This "learning toward truth" has two preceeding parts. The two preceeding parts are shari'ah program and tariqah program. According to their understanding of human science, human starts their human perfection journey from shari'ah program in which students learn law and regulations for human life. After shari'ah program, students enter tariqah program in which they are engaged in training for their moral perfection. After finishing tariqah program, students practise haqiqah exercises which means exercises for approaching the Truth. Those who most approached the Truth are regarded as Perfect Human. This perfected human was the final goal of the "Dao Xue".
