PARADIGM OF
ISLAMIC EDUCATION
Basic
paradigm is identical to the basic Islamic education of Islam itself
. Both come from the same source , namely Al - Quran and al - Hadith
. From both sources is then emerged a number of ideas about Muslim issues
covering various aspects , including the issue of Islamic education
. Basic education as Islam Al - Quran and Al - Hadith is a reference to
find , create and develop paradigms , concepts , principles , theories , and
techniques of Islamic education . Tafseer Ahmad stated that education in
Islam is a series of human empowerment process towards maturity , both
intellectually , mentally and morally , to carry out the functions carried
humanity as a servant of God and as a vicegerent on earth . Because the
function of education is to prepare students with the skills and expertise
required in order to have the ability and readiness to plunge into the
community .

from a long process that began in the early days of Islam ( Muhammad Rasul
period . ) At that time Muhammad always instill awareness on the urgency of his
companions and science and always encourage Muslims to seek knowledge
constantly . This is evidenced by the many traditions that explain the
urgency and primacy of science and people who have knowledge . After

mission by instilling awareness of the importance of knowledge to succeeding
generations , so that this awareness became flesh among Muslims and reached its
peak in the eleventh century until the beginning of the XIII century

officers specifically to different areas of Islam to be a resource person for
the Muslim community in the region . They usually live in the mosque and
taught about Islam to Muslims through khalaqoh - khalaqoh special majlis to
study religion and reviewing discipline and other matters in accordance with
what the community needed .
