Abstract

Purpose – This study explores how Muslim scholars and experienced educators conceptualise tarbiyah within Islamic educational thought and how they understand its relationship to taʿlīm, taʾdīb, and tadrīs. It addresses a gap in the literature by foregrounding the lived perspectives of scholar-practitioners. Design/methods/approach – The study adopts a qualitative, interpretive design using narrative-informed semi-structured interviews analysed through thematic analysis. Five male participants with recognised expertise in Islamic education, Arabic, and traditional Islamic sciences were purposively selected. Data were generated through in-depth interviews, including one written response with follow-up clarification, and interpreted through an Islamic worldview framework. Findings – The findings position tarbiyah as the overarching, foundational, and integrative paradigm of Islamic education. Participants consistently described it as a God-centred, holistic, lifelong, and transformative process oriented towards worship, vicegerency, and ethical formation. Taʿlīm, tadrīs, and taʾdīb were understood as interrelated but subordinate processes deriving their meaning from the higher aims of tarbiyah. The study also highlights the importance of moral exemplarity, companionship, school culture, and embodied pedagogy in operationalising tarbiyah. Research implications – The study provides an empirically grounded framework for rethinking Islamic education and suggests that tarbiyah should shape school vision, curriculum, pedagogy, leadership, and educator formation.

Abstract

Values based education has become major concern in building character, especially for younger generation. This article explores implementation of character education through integration of politeness, tahfidz (spiritual memorization), and science learning programs. Research methods used include literature analysis and case studies to examine impact of these programs on student character formation. The findings suggest integration of modesty, tahfidz, and science learning programs can serve as strong foundation for building ethical and strong character. Adab program focuses on promoting good behavior and ethics, because adab program plays an important role in helping students understand ethics and good behavior when interacting with friends or other people. Meanwhile, tahfidz program strengthens spiritual values and obedience, helps shape students' pious character, which leads to improved behavior, discipline, enthusiasm for learning, and self-confidence, instill love Al-Qur'an and knowledge of religious practices. Additionally, science learning gives students deep understanding of universe and encourages critical and creative thinking. Science learning encourages students to think creatively, there are providing space for students to generate new ideas, explore alternative approaches, and develop innovative solutions to complex challenges. Integration of these three programs creates holistic and integrated learning environment, enabling students to develop as responsible and ethical individuals.
