Reinterpreting Ethical Values in "Ta’lim Al Muta’allim" for Contemporary Learning Contexts: A Humanistic Approach

Muhammad Nurul Mubin, Iffah Khoiriyatul Muyassaroh

Abstract


This study aims to reinterpret the ethical values presented in the classical Islamic text "Ta’lim Al Muta’allim" by Shaykh Az Zarnuji, adapting them for humanistic application within contemporary learning environments. Employing a qualitative literature review methodology, this research examines the compatibility of these traditional values with modern educational contexts. Through systematic selection and thematic analysis of academic sources, the study identifies critical critiques of Az Zarnuji's ethical prescriptions, including their perceived rigidity and hierarchical nature. The findings reveal that values such as the physical orientation of study, the avoidance of doubtful matters, and the hierarchical teacher-student relationship require adaptation to align with the dynamic, flexible, and inclusive nature of modern learning. The reinterpretation ensures these values remain relevant and beneficial by integrating academic integrity, collaboration, and digital literacy principles. The study's implications are significant for Islamic educational institutions seeking to modernize curricula, promoting a holistic educational model that combines religious and secular knowledge, fostering intellectual growth, moral development, and social responsibility. However, this research acknowledges its limitations in theoretical focus and context dependence, recommending future empirical validation in diverse educational settings.
