| Summary: | In modern times, ‘knowledge’ is understood as cognitive, subjective and as an ever evolving concept. In contrast, knowledge in Islam is conceived within a ‘certain’ worldview, i.e., Islamic Worldview (IW) set by the authentic sources of Islam; the Holy Qur’an and the authentic collection of Prophetic traditions. Within this worldview, the concept encompasses spiritual, intellectual, moral and ethical, psycho-social, civilizational and developmental dimensions of human life. This paper aims to present a framework grounded in the IW for ‘knowledge’ creation and management, with special reference to the Muslim Education system. |
