This article examines the relationship between Islamic schools and local cultural traditions through a literature review focusing on patterns of rejection, acceptance, and accommodation. The findings reveal that some Islamic schools reject local traditions that are viewed as lacking normative foundations in Islamic teachings, while others accept traditions considered not contradictory to Islamic principles. Additionally, a third pattern—accommodation—shows how certain schools selectively reinterpret or modify local traditions to align with Islamic values. This literature review highlights that the interaction between Islamic education and local culture is strongly influenced by ideological orientation, socio-cultural context, and the religious paradigm adopted by each institution. The study concludes that the relationship between Islamic schools and local traditions is dynamic and continues to evolve alongside societal changes and the development of Islamic thought.
