Islamization of the Curriculum

Conclusion

By  Rosnani Hashim

 
In this article, I have attempted to highlight the problems within the existing curricula in our educational system. Our educational planners ought to be sensitive to these issues and have the vision and courage to suggest curricular changes. This is crucial for the strengthening of the Ummah. I have also proposed some ways to Islamize these curricula beginning with the educational philosophy, the learning experiences, and the procedure of evaluation. But these are still not sufficient. If our educational planners and educators are entrusted with this task, our scholars have an equally important task to ensure the success of our efforts in the Islamization of education. This task, which should be shouldered by our scholars of all disciplines, especially in the acquired sciences, is the Islamization of contemporary knowledge. Our hopes lie in the Islamization of contemporary knowledge, the curriculum, and ultimately education, which will eventually lead to the rise of the Islamic personality (the good man) who will continue the cycle of Islamization.
