| Summary: | This study describes and analyzes the Islamic concept of education, curriculum of Islamic education, sources of Islamic
education, functions and importance of Islamic educational curriculum and its overall role in the process of teaching
and learning. The study then seeks to elucidate a theoretical conception of ‘Islamic educational curriculum’, which takes
into consideration the Qur’anic approach and Prophetic Sunnah, alongside commonly held approaches to education
in Muslim history. The paper concludes that the content and scope of the Glorious Qur’an and the Prophetic Sunnah
are still very relevant in building the people to survive and sustain the globalizing era. Drawing on library research
method and the study of existing literature, this study intends to aid in the rethinking, and perhaps in the redesigning
of curriculum of Islamic education, by first analyzing the aim and objective of Islamic education which we wish for
the students to learn. The curriculum standard and some suggested changes that should be included in Islamic studies
instruction are explored. The study identify a number of next steps for teachers and administrators. |
