Knowledge and Education in Classical Islam: Religious Learning between Continuity and Change (2 vols) by Sebastian Günther Pdf

Knowledge and Education in Classical Islam by Sebastian Günther Pdf
"Knowledge and Education in Classical Islam: Religious Learning between Continuity and Change is a pioneering collection of essays on the historical developments, ideals, and practices of Islamic learning and teaching in the formative and classical periods of Islam (i.e., from the seventh to fifteenth centuries CE). Based on innovative and philologically sound primary source research, and utilizing the most recent methodological tools, this two volume set sheds new light on the challenges and opportunities that arise from a deep engagement with classical Islamic concepts of knowledge, its production and acquisition, and, of course, learning. Learning is especially important because of its relevance to contemporary communities and societies in our increasingly multicultural, "global" civilizations, whether Eastern or Western.

Tradition and Future of Islamic Education by Wilna A.J. Meijer Pdf
The relation between Islam and the West is the topic of an ongoing debate. The debate often leaves us with a choice between two mutually exclusive worlds: the modern West with its enlightenment and science and accompanying secular education, or else Islam and Islamic education, characterised by orthodoxy and tradition. In the hope of promoting dialogue instead of polarisation, the author, a philosopher of education trained in the West, searches for the ideas and ideals of education, schooling and learning within Islam. Wherever knowledge and learning have blossomed, education, schooling and teaching must have flourished, too. Which educational culture was part of the highly developed intellectual culture of classical Islam? Current-day modernist Muslim intellectuals take inspiration from this rich intellectual tradition of Islam. The perspective on the future of Islamic education in the modern context, in which the book results, utilizes their ideas. Hermeneutics, the theory of interpretation, is applied to the rereading and reinterpretation of the source texts of Islam. Hermeneutics also offers an inspiring perspective on an education that strikes the balance between tradition and enlightenment.
Classical Foundations of Islamic Educational Thought - a Compendium of Para by Bradley J. Cook,Fatḥī Ḥasan Malkāwī Pdf
Education has always been an important pursuit in Islam. The Prophet Muhammad enjoined his followers to “seek knowledge, even unto China.” Within the religion, educational theory and practice were founded on the work of itinerant teachers who taught the fundamental tenets of the faith in exchange for lodging and other services; Qur’anic schools where masters of the Qur’an tutored pupils; and centers of higher learning in Baghdad, Damascus, Alexandria and elsewhere, where Islamic theology and jurisprudence were developed and taught. In this volume, Bradley J. Cook, with assistance from Fathi H. Malkawi, has drawn together and introduced selections from the writings of eminent Islamic thinkers on the subject of Islamic educational efforts, presenting the original Arabic texts alongside their annotated English translations.

Introduction to Integrated Education by Imam Bahroni Pdf
Education is a process to change the behavior of an individual in the society and his surrounding, through teaching and guiding as the fundamental activity among other activities in the community. This definition stresses on the change of behavior from bad to good, from minimum to maximum from potential to actual and from passive to active. All the changes are through the teaching process, which does not end at the level of individual, but up to the level of society. In this sense, the educational process will enhance individual as well as social piety. Islamic education on the other hand, can be defined as all efforts to educate and develop individual self and his human resources for a perfect person. This definition is in accordance with the view of Islam on the real meaning of education, that is to actualize a person who has strong faith in Allah the Almighty and at the same time, he is able to keep in balance his pious relationship with his God and fellow being positively as well as constructively. Islamic education is an education which has fundamental principles like independent methods, learning based on self-reliance, freedom in teaching, self-study, special attention on children, encouraging the skill and potencies of the student, appreciation of the students' intelligence, teaching through suitable approaches, kind guidance, and softness. Islamic education focuses on the behavior education, giving special attention on the development of skill in oratory, reasoning and speech presentation, reading enrichment on the classical Islamic book and consistent in learning, research and teaching which all are based on long life education. Meanwhile, the aim of Islamic education is personality construction, educating the mind and heart, nourishing the potencies, inhabits good conduct and preparing the child to be sincere and clean in mind and heart based on the teaching of Islam. The whole activities and the subjects taught at the process of education should be tahdhibul akhlaq (etiquette construction). The author in this book tries to describe the foundation of integrated education based on the light of al-Qur'an and Prophetic Tradition. The elaboration of its nature also includes the basic principle, curriculum and method of this institution. In the end of narration, the book explains vividly the historical studies on its ideal model that developed significantly through the passage of times.
The Art of Learning: A Classical Islamic Text by Al-Zarnuji Pdf
We know very little about Al-Zarnuji except what can be reconstructed from his work on education, here translated for the first time into English. His seminal works on the methods of learning are celebrated the world over and have helped many unlock the secrets to attaining knowledge and reach the heights of Islamic scholarship. Al-Zarnuji brilliantly interweaves a curious mixture of rational and non-rational elements that went into this study of education, compounded by an inflexible respect for the authority of the Quran. The Art of Learning is the result of a collaboration between a distinguished Orientalist and a well-known psychologist, both leaders in their field, to give us the definitive guide for teachers and students, alike, to apply their learning.

Muslim Education in the 21st Century by Sa’eda Buang,Phyllis Ghim-Lian Chew Pdf
Muslim Education in the 21st Century reinvestigates the current state of affairs in Muslim education in Asia whilst at the same time paying special attention to Muslim schools’ perception of educational changes and the reasons for such changes. It highlights and explores the important question of whether the Muslim school has been reinventing itself in the field of pedagogy and curriculum to meet the challenges of the 21st century education. It interrogates the schools whose curriculum content carry mostly the subject of religion and Islam as its school culture. Typologically, these include state-owned or privately-run madrasah or dayah in Aceh, Indonesia; pondok, traditional Muslim schools largely prevalent in the East Malaysian states and Indonesia; pesantren, Muslim boarding schools commonly found in Indonesia; imam-khatip schools in Turkey, and other variations in Asia. Contributed by a host of international experts, Muslim Education in the 21st Century focuses on how Muslim educators strive to deal with the educational contingencies of their times and on Muslim schools’ perception of educational changes and reasons for such changes. It will be of great interest to anyone interested in Asian and Muslim education.
Knowledge, Authority, and Islamic Education in the West by Zainab Kabba Pdf
"This ethnographic study focuses on emerging adult Muslims engaged in religious learning in Western environments. It draws on fieldwork in the United States, Canada, and Turkey to explore the production of knowledge and the formation of religious identity. The book documents and analyzes the ways in which four intensive pedagogical settings, and the student-teacher encounters within them, act as vehicles to reconceptualize Islamic tradition and provide Muslims with understandings of their past that inform choices for their futures. It considers the pervasiveness of technology and the decentralized nature of juridical interpretation in Islam that fosters competition amongst a myriad of knowledge producers, contouring religious understandings and practice for Muslims in contexts such as America. The author argues for shifting the vertical nature of religious authority by parsing the components between teachers and students that are continuously communicated and calibrated to enable authority to materialize. In addition to contributing to debates on the challenges of intra-Muslim dialogue in relation to the umma, this volume illustrates how American Sunni-Muslim communities readapt classical narratives of Islamic tradition in a digital age despite the tense geopolitics currently surrounding Islam"--

Knowledge, Authority, and Islamic Education in the West by Zainab Kabba Pdf
Drawing on immersive fieldwork in the United States, Canada, and Turkey, this ethnographic exploration illuminates the transformative experiences of emerging adult Muslims on their quest for religious knowledge. This book unravels the significance of four residential learning settings, revealing their role as catalysts for reshaping Islamic tradition. Delving into the interplay between technology’s pervasive influence and the decentralized nature of Islamic interpretation, Zainab Kabba unveils a vibrant tapestry of knowledge producers vying to shape religious understanding and practice among Western Muslims. At the heart of this narrative lies the delicate balance between teachers and students, continuously communicating and recalibrating components that bring religious authority to life. Kabba dissects this relationship, highlighting the emergence of a complex landscape that she terms the ‘Muslim Education Industrial Complex’, where religious knowledge has become a commodity. This study offers profound insights into the challenges of intra-Muslim dialogue and the adaptive resilience of American Sunni-Muslim communities. Amidst a digital age and the complexities of global geopolitics surrounding Islam, it showcases how these communities reinterpret classical Islamic narratives, navigating tradition to steer their path forward. This book invites readers to ponder the evolution of Islamic learning, the dynamics of authority, and the enduring quest for knowledge amidst the currents of a rapidly changing world.
