Abstract

This study examines the textbooks and teachers of PAI (Islamic Religious Education) in the process of transmitting Islamic religious knowledge at Madrasah Aliyah, Manado City. Manado City was chosen as one of the tolerant cities in Indonesia where the majority of the population embraces Christianity, while Muslims are a minority. The focus of this research is teachers' perception of textbooks, religious patterns, and teachers' agency in learning Islamic religious subjects. Qualitative methods through in-depth interviews are used as instruments to csollect and analyze research data. The results of this study show that the 2013 PAI Curriculum textbook published by the Ministry of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia is too complex, but not in-depth, so that teachers need to innovate to find teaching resources from the internet. PAI teachers in the city of Manado reject the perception of Madrasah which has been considered as an institution that produces extreme ideas in religion. On the contrary, this study shows religious teachers as agents of religious moderation. Classrooms and teachers become mediators and facilitators for students who gain intolerant-exclusive religious understanding from offline and online recitations. Islamic religious learning in madrassas in the city of Manado is a mechanism to reduce radicalism by making the classroom an arena for discourse to develop religious moderation in the city of Manado.

Abstract

Purpose – This study aims to examine Noeng Muhadjir’s perspective on constructing Islamic educational philosophy and its implications for developing scientific paradigms at Universitas Ahmad Dahlan (UAD). His ideas remain highly relevant amid the persistent dichotomy in Islamic education, which is still dominated by textual-theological reasoning and lacks empirical-rational contextualization. Methods – This study applies an abductive approach combining library (deductive) and field (inductive) research. Data from Noeng Muhadjir’s works and interviews with UAD leaders are analyzed philosophically to explore how his educational philosophy shapes UAD’s scientific paradigm, as reflected in the Science Unification guideline. Findings – Noeng Muhadjir’s Islamic educational philosophy, inspired by Ibn Rushd’s Peripatetic tradition, is based on monism, metaphysical realism, and theocratic humanistic ethics. He integrates empirical-rational (‘aqliyah) and divine-revelatory (naqliyah) reasoning to develop theocratic humanistic science and technology. At UAD, this thought underpins the unification of general and religious sciences grounded in Islamic and Muhammadiyah values (AIK) to advance science, humanity, and universal values. Research implications/limitations – This research advances the development of an Islamic educational philosophy that is empirical-rational in method yet spiritual in orientation. Based on Islamic Peripatetic principles, it positions Islamic education as integrating both religious and general sciences through empirical and experimental approaches. This perspective ultimately eliminates the dichotomy between wājib ‘ain (religious knowledge) and wājib kifāyah (general knowledge), viewing both as equally vital elements of a unified Islamic epistemology. Originality/value – Until now, much research and development in Islamic educational philosophy has tended to rely on Western philosophical frameworks rather than being grounded in authentic Islamic philosophical thought. In response, Noeng Muhadjir proposes Islamic Peripatetic philosophy as a genuine form of Islamic philosophy that serves as the foundation for developing an Islamic educational philosophy rooted in empirical and rational reasoning.
