Abstract

The preservation of cultural values through education is a vital strategy in maintaining national identity amidst globalization that threatens local wisdom. This study applies a qualitative approach through literature review to analyze the role of education in transmitting cultural values and shaping students' character. The findings indicate that education plays a strategic function not only in transferring cultural heritage but also in cultivating moral and spiritual values rooted in local traditions and religious teachings. Formal, non-formal, and informal education must synergize in this process. The Merdeka Curriculum offers significant opportunities for innovation in local culture-based learning. The role of the teacher as a value model is essential, as emphasized in the concept of ta'dib by Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas. By simultaneously strengthening character and cultural education, education can serve as a progressive and inclusive agent of cultural transformation

Abstract

This article aims to explore strategies for integrating general and religious knowledge within Islamic education as an approach to building a holistic educational system aligned with the demands of the multidisciplinary era. Using a descriptive qualitative method through literature review, this study analyzes integrative practices in Islamic educational institutions, the strategic role of teachers, as well as the challenges and opportunities for strengthening integration. The findings indicate that integration models are implemented through unified curricula, thematic learning, and value-based project assignments that combine scientific and spiritual approaches. Teachers act as key agents who not only deliver subject content but also embody values through interdisciplinary teaching. Despite facing challenges such as dichotomous paradigms, limited teacher competencies, and the scarcity of integrative teaching materials, integration can be strengthened through teacher training, curriculum reform, institutional policies, and collaboration among stakeholders. Through this approach, Islamic education can cultivate insan kamil individuals who are intellectually excellent, spiritually grounded, and globally competitive.
