Abstract

Classical Islamic education has a long history in shaping Islamic civilisation, with a model that combines scientific and moral aspects. In the fast-paced and dynamic modern era, the relevance of this education is often questioned when facing the challenges of the times. This article explores the relevance of classical Islamic education in the modern era through the case study of Kuttab Al-Kahfi. This educational institution carries a traditional approach with the motto "Giving birth to a Divine and Noble Generation in Youth". Kuttab Al-Kahfi has succeeded in integrating classical Islamic values with the needs of modern education through a comprehensive curriculum, which includes learning the Qur'an and adab. This article highlights how Kuttab Al-Kahfi faces the challenges of globalisation and technology while maintaining the basic principles of Islamic education, as well as the impact of this educational method on the formation of the character and intellect of the younger generation. The study results show that an educational approach rooted in classical tradition remains relevant in forming a generation with noble character and high competence in the modern era.
