<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the characteristics of Islamic education in the context of contemporary education, with an emphasis on values, methods, and holistic learning objectives. Islamic education is not only oriented toward the transfer of knowledge but also toward character development (akhlak), spirituality, and the integration of scientific knowledge and Islamic values. This study employs a qualitative approach using content analysis to examine various literature related to the concepts and practices of Islamic education. The results indicate that the main characteristics of Islamic education include: i) being grounded in the values of the Quran and Hadith as primary sources; ii) integrating cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects in a balanced manner; iii) emphasizing the development of students’ moral character and personality; iv) employing humanistic and contextual approaches in the learning process; and v) being oriented toward the development of the insan kamil (the perfect human being) as the ultimate goal of education. Furthermore, Islamic education is required to adapt to the changing times without abandoning the fundamental principles of Islam.]]>
