Masa pra-kemerdekaan tak memberikan ruang bebas bagi Pendidikan Islam dan mengantarkannya pada roda kemunduran. Dilema inilah yang melahirkan para pembaharu yang akan merevitalisasi sistem pendidikan di Indonesia. Salah satunya Imam Zarkasyi, bersama kedua saudaranya KH Ahmad Sahal dan KH Zainuddin Fanani dengan mendirikan Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor (PMDG). Sebuah lembaga pendidikan berbentuk pesantren yang mengintegrasikan sistem madrasah dengen sistem pesantren, sehingga menjadikannya bercorak ‘modern’ pada zamannya. Integrasi tersebut berimplikasi pada penerapan day-schooling diiringi dengan boarding system, pemberlakuan written and hidden curriculum dan berbagai metode yang disesuaikan dengan milieu by design Gontory. Dengan ini, pemikiran para tokoh pembaharuan Pendidikan Islam penting untuk dikaji demi menemukan model pendidikan ideal di Indonesia. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, maka pemikiran pendidikan Imam Zarkasyi relevan bagi pengembangan Pendidikan Islam di Indonesia dalam aspek sistem dan kelembagaan, tujuan, pendidik, peserta didik, dan situasi pendidikan.]]>
