The data were analyzed using content analysis, by examining themes, concepts, and theoretical relevance to produce a comprehensive synthesis in accordance with the research focus. The findings and discussion reveal that the concepts of knowledge, ethics, and methods of contemporary Islamic education are greatly influenced by the works of Ibn Khaldun and Ibn Sina.
