In this research, the educational implications of the genealogical research method from Foucault's point of view and its criticism based on Allameh Tabatabai's point of view are discussed. In education and training, Allameh pays attention to two absolute and relative ontological bases of concepts, metaphysicalism and God-centeredness. According to Allameh, there is an undeniable relationship between absolute, relative and theology; but Foucault, with extreme attention to relative matters, has neglected the fundamental importance of the absolute theme, spirituality, as well as monotheism and metaphysics. From Foucault's genealogical research method, a fragmented and non-evolutionary idea of history, discontinuity, externality, nominalism, multiple identities and uniqueness has been deduced. Allameh Tabatabai's desired education has features such as emphasis on genealogy research method, integrity and purposefulness of history and system of existence, belief in intrinsic absoluteness, monotheism and belief in prior knowledge; these cases can be used as criteria for criticism of Foucault's education. For this purpose, this article uses the rational-logical method. Allameh's genealogical research method has a more complete and comprehensive view of teacher education due to the simultaneous attention to the dimension of relativity and absoluteness and monotheism.
