ABSTRACT

Indonesia's National Education System Law No. 20 of 2003 and its derivative regulations aim to standardize and enhance educational quality. However, achieving these standards remains challenging for many schools, with significant gaps persisting. The Education Roadmap, intended to ensure equitable access, quality improvement, and competitiveness, has not been effectively implemented due to unresolved systemic issues. Contradictions are evident between educational objectives and strategies. For example, graduate learning outcomes emphasize spiritual and social skills in the affective domain, while teaching strategies continue prioritizing intellectual skills. Similarly, teacher training focuses heavily on academic and pedagogical competencies, often neglecting personality and social development. This study adopts a qualitative approach using literature review methods, drawing from primary sources such as Qur’anic verses and hadith, alongside other authoritative references. The findings demonstrate that the Qur’an offers a comprehensive framework for establishing a robust and integrated education ecosystem. This model, rooted in transformative teachings of al-tauhid, views the verses of “al-qauliyah, al-kauniyah, and al-insaniyah” as a unified source of knowledge derived ontologically from Allah SWT. The study concludes that a Qur’an-based education ecosystem can effectively address gaps in integrating Islamic values, strengthening students’ character and fostering a more cohesive and sustainable educational framework in Indonesia.
