The method of data collection in this study is documentary study. In this study, which has a qualitative nature, according to the origin of piety, which is revelation, reason and law, and the origin of self-control, which is empirical and sensory knowledge, first the effective elements in creating piety and self-control are counted and then the effect of two concepts by descriptive and analytical methods. Piety and self-control are explained in the education of civilizing human beings. In Islam, attention to the consequences of behavior, learning lessons, self-esteem, self-calculation, using patterns and elements and the element of rationality to attain piety is emphasized, and in psychological thought, especially the school of behaviorism, to strengthen itself. Success experiences, self-efficacy, self-assessment, role modeling, encouragement and cognition are ordered; Attention to the nature and function of these elements indicates some common and synergistic elements for human entry into the field of civilization.
