Islamic Values in Education
Research Guide
What is Islamic Values in Education?
Islamic Values in Education examines the integration of akhlak, taqwa, and Islamic ethics into modern pedagogy within madrasah, pesantren, and public school contexts.
Research focuses on teacher training, curriculum adaptation, and character development in Muslim-majority settings like Indonesia. Key studies analyze pesantren evolution (Isbah, 2020; 157 citations) and orthodox character education (Mujahid, 2021; 80 citations). Over 20 papers from 2008-2022 address these themes, with foundational works on integrated Islamic schools (Hasan, 2014; 70 citations).
Why It Matters
Integrating Islamic values into education strengthens moral development and cultural identity in Indonesia's pesantren and madrasah systems (Isbah, 2020; Mujahid, 2021). It equips teachers to blend akhlak with modern curricula amid globalization (Rosyad and Ma`arif, 2020). Programs like Kurikulum Merdeka enhance implementation, reducing radical influences while promoting moderate Muslim character (Pratikno et al., 2022; Hasan, 2014).
Key Research Challenges
Balancing Tradition and Modernity
Pesantren face pressures to modernize while preserving akhlak and taqwa amid globalization (Isbah, 2020; 157 citations). Studies show conflicts in curriculum adaptation for integrated Islamic schools (Hasan, 2014; 70 citations). Researchers struggle to harmonize religious ethics with secular pedagogy.
Teacher Training Deficiencies
Islamic teachers lack professional skills for character education delivery (Nasir, 2013; 24 citations). Phenomenological analysis reveals personality gaps in strengthening akhlak (Lukman et al., 2021; 100 citations). Training programs fail to address digital era demands (Rahmatullah et al., 2022; 137 citations).
Countering Radical Influences
Pesantren must foster moderate character against radical movements (Mujahid, 2021; 80 citations). Local wisdom integration combats extremism in elementary settings (Tohri et al., 2022; 90 citations). Global challenges require democratic Islamic paradigms (Rosyad and Ma`arif, 2020; 74 citations).
