Among these, his innovative questioning techniques are a cornerstone of effective teaching. This article examines the Prophet’s (PBUH) use of questions, focusing on the hadith reported by Abu Umamah (RA), and explores their relevance to contemporary education trends. The study highlights how he employed questions to convey knowledge, stimulate critical thinking, foster curiosity and nurture moral growth, tailoring his approach to the intellectual and emotional capacities of his audience. The hadith where the Prophet (PBUH) asks, <em>"Shall I not inform you of the most beloved deeds to Allah?"</em> exemplifies his use of open-ended, thought-provoking questions to captivate attention, encourage introspection and create memorable learning experiences. His mastery of this approach transformed passive listeners into active participants, ensuring his messages resonated deeply with diverse audiences. Drawing parallels with modern educational frameworks like inquiry-based learning and the Socratic Method, the article underscores the compatibility of the Prophet’s (PBUH) techniques with contemporary best practices. Incorporating these strategies into classrooms can enhance engagement, promote critical thinking, and foster ethical reasoning. Additionally, the spiritual and moral dimensions of his questions align with the Islamic philosophy of <em>tarbiyah</em>, emphasizing character development alongside intellectual growth. This study advocates for integrating the prophetic model of teaching into modern education to create more engaging and transformative learning environments.</p> 2025-01-16T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Dr. Yunus Jibril Hassan https://pakjip.com/index.php/pjip/article/view/260 The Contribution of Islamic Education to Bridging Global Knowledge Gaps 2025-03-22T12:08:45+00:00 Hafiz Taj Din htd3030@gmail.com <p>Islamic education has played a transformative role in bridging global knowledge gaps throughout history by fostering intellectual growth, preserving diverse cultural heritages and facilitating the dissemination of knowledge. Rooted in the Qur'anic emphasis on the pursuit of learning, Islamic education integrated religious and secular sciences, exemplified by the translation movement of the Abbasid era and the establishment of institutions like madrasas. These centers not only preserved ancient Greek, Persian and Indian knowledge but also advanced disciplines such as medicine, mathematics and astronomy, influencing both Islamic and European intellectual traditions. In the contemporary era, Islamic education holds immense potential to address global educational inequalities. By leveraging its holistic approach to learning, which combines ethical and interdisciplinary knowledge, Islamic education can contribute to resolving modern challenges such as poverty, lack of educational access and societal fragmentation. Furthermore, technological advancements provide an opportunity for Islamic institutions to disseminate knowledge globally, promoting inclusivity and cross-cultural dialogue. However, realizing this potential requires addressing challenges such as stereotypes, limited policy support and outdated curricula. Revitalizing Islamic education through modernized content, digital integration and collaborative, efforts with international organizations can ensure its relevance and effectiveness. This study highlights the historical contributions of Islamic education and explores its capacity to bridge contemporary knowledge gaps, advocating for a renewed commitment to its rich intellectual tradition. By fostering a culture of inquiry and universal understanding, Islamic education can continue to contribute meaningfully to global knowledge systems and human development.</p> 2025-03-24T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Hafiz Taj Din
