4.3 The Restoration Approach
This approach is based on the researcher to recover the past due to the legacy of the effects of any kind. It is the approach used in the historical and moral science.
So, this approach to recover-back events and phenomena, i.e., retrieval and evocation to be discussed and studied, in order to find out what happened and in which circumstances and historical conditions and circumstances, which produced by his image.
If history is what happens to the human beings and all interested in what relates to it, then it is aimed to know the past in relation to human beings: individuals and groups.
One manifestation of the development in the historical method, some contemporary researchers and thinkers do not see necessity to start the historical research at the first historical moment of the event or phenomenon, the subject of study, but we can start from the current historical moment in which we live.
A restoration Approach to History means that whatever way you decide to teach history, the researcher will start at the beginning and move to the present day. When we think of Restoration, we think of time-lines, sequence, order, beginning, moving from B.C. to A.D.
The easiest way to work in a Restoration approach to history is for ALL the researchers to study the same time period at the same time, but at different levels-focusing on the same events and characters (mostly), but studying them in varying degrees of depth. This is what we have done in our research for many years.
4.3 The Restoration Approach
There would be some who argue that you must study history in a restoration way for the researcher to have an understanding of how everything fits together. I agree that at some time in the education, they should see the big picture and have a clear understanding of the scope of history and the time-periods. This can be done by using a restoration approach to history. However, I think that you could choose to keep the study of history to interest-driven thematic units for primary years or for a few years at least, and then pursue a restoration study of history.
So, in short, I agree that studying history Restoration makes sense, but at the same time, you will not ruin their education if you teach history using some thematic unit studies.
The Muslims relied upon it. They used it according to scientific basis, and relied on this approach in the science of Hadith and methods of verification of the narrators, the historical method depends on the restoration approach. We find that Muslims come to all the results of the scholars of the historical research of internal and external narration, they gain access to find ways of historical analysis and formulation, they were able to examine documents using the comparative approaches, used the division and classification approaches, also, they studied the approaches of historical investigation, and verification of scientists, especially Ibn Khaldun and Sakhaawi and Al-Subki.
We find these scientists did not limit themselves to the historical method, but also used the deductive approach, and also merged a number of approaches, such as inductive and deductive, and used the measurement of the absent to the witness in terms of induction of accidental events, looking at similar...

...things, link each other, and thus they were able to reach general provisions. The work within the history field became the work of scholars and jurisprudents, religious men and the theological scholastic through the correct scientific approach, and it was a good way of the means of studying and research in the Hadith science.
The history consists of events that happened once and forever, while the knowledge consists of liable truths always to that returns, and what that is except because the history depends on the time and the first feature from the time features the non- disposition of the return because the main quality to the time is the trend, and the trend requires to proceed ahead without retreating or repetition. The mission of the Restoration Approach to carry out anti- doing the history function, that it tries to restore what was in the past and it tries that to restore in the mind by a pure mental way what the history events occur. It tries to imagine the course of these events, and as if it is held in a directed regularity and from whereas this can't take place except by a kind of the alive experience that the person in it tries to suffer in himself what have was as was.
The Restoration Approach is that can live the past experiences, as it happened, in a kind of the imagination. But this imagination is not an originated imagination, but it should depend on a basis what the last events left from effects, that what happened can't be restored any way. But it can be restored theoretically by a kind of combination, starting from what he left from events, sometimes the mind works in it, also the originated imagination in a kind of the affection, by it we form the last image in the best available way.
