EXPLORING THE FOUNDATION OF THE TEACHER-STUDENT RELATIONSHIP IN ISLAMIC EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS OF THE ABBASID ERA

Abstract

Islamic educational institutions during the Abbasiyah era possess a number of uniqueness. This has been shown through the contribution of those earlier islamic scholars, resulting in critical meaning in today’s education. The practice that occurs in Islamic educational institutions are derived from the teacher-student relationship, especially during the 8th-12th century. Hence, this study aims to examine the basis of teacher-student relationship thinking that occurred in Islamic educational institutions of the Abbasiyah era. Among the most prominent institutions studied are the research centers, mosques, and schools. The data obtained generally through an exploration of primary and secondary historical sources. In addition, data analysis employed interpretive and descriptive methods. Findings showed that the the fundamental thoughts of teacher-student relationship existing in the most important Islamic educational institutions reveal four important aspects namely spiritual values, manner teaching (adab), wisdom, and scientific spirit. Thus, these elements need to be re-emphasized in the teacher-student relationship through current educational institutions so that the authority of knowledge can be situated in its proper place.
