Should the educational objective in middle school circles be "for the student to maintain the regular Sunnah prayers and the Witr prayer" or "for the student to be encouraged to perform the regular Sunnah prayers and the Witr prayer," and to what extent is this objective appropriate from an Islamic and educational perspective for this stage?

Encouraging children and students to perform acts of obedience and worship is essential. If parents fall short in this, then it is incumbent upon educators to encourage them towards good. Fasting optional (Nafl) fasts, giving charity, honoring parents, helping the needy, and removing harm from the path are all matters that should be encouraged. The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) used to make their young children fast optional fasts. Neglecting to teach children the obligatory and Sunnah acts of religion leads to their corruption. Therefore, a guardian must command a young child to fast if they are able to bear it, in order to train them in the pillars of Islam. Furthermore, caring for a child's character is crucial because they grow up according to what the educator accustomed them to. Negligence in upbringing leads to moral corruption.
