TOWARDS AN INTEGRATIVE ISLAMIC BOARDING SCHOOL EDUCATION MODEL: A LITERATURE-BASED ANALYSIS OF TRADITIONAL AND MODERN ISLAMIC THOUGHT

Abstract

This study aims to examine and analyze the pesantren education model in the perspective of traditional and modern Islamic literature through a library research approach. Traditional pesantren are known for their yellow book-based education
patterns, the close relationship between santri and kyai, and the cultivation of moral and spiritual values through sorogan, bandongan, and halaqah methods. On the other hand, modern pesantren are present as a response to the times by applying an
integrative curriculum between religious and general sciences, active learning approaches, and professional institutional management. The results of the study show that although there are significant differences in methods, curriculum, and
institutional systems, both models have similarities in educational goals: forming Muslim individuals who are knowledgeable, moral, and independent. This article recommends the development of an integrative education model that combines
traditional and modern strengths as an effort to advance contextual and globally competitive pesantren.
