Abstract

Education does not mean only teaching people to know what they do not know. It also means teaching them to behave better than they do. Because of the inseparable bond between Islam and education, the teacher in school has to be committed to the society and answerable to the people. His actions and words are the targets of scrutiny. More so, he must be a dependable and responsible person whose role does not end with one, two or three hour teaching, thereby coming to an end, but it continues even after, implying that his professional duty is one that extends to the society. An Islamic studies teacher in school must be one who tries to relate the Islamic perspective to the academic subjects that he teaches. If subjects are not Islamized, the result is that students may not view Allah (S.W.T) to be the Author and Controller of the Universe.
