Description
Education and Curricular Perspectives in the Qur’an is a unique academic study that focuses on different perspectives of education curriculum in the Qur’an. Sarah Risha explains how Allah Almighty, as the great teacher, communicated His divine message, the Qur’an, which may be considered as the textbook, to His students, the prophets. The primary source is the Qur’an itself, and sayings of the Prophet Mohammed when necessary. While curriculum is a broad term, Risha addresses five aspects in particular to examine how the Qur’an deals with this vital element, and connects this central religious text to current academic curriculum studies.

Sarah Risha’s new book aims to present through six chapters an introductory, yet at times advanced, picture of the aspects and characteristics of the Qur?a¯nic curriculum.... [This book] would be a good resource for any instructor to present the main curricular perspectives in the Qur?a¯n.

After reading countless books in the field of curriculum studies, I found this book, for the first time, to bring together three controversial topics: curriculum, methodology, and deep understanding of the diversity of learning processes. What I found most entertaining was the reference to the types of learners and the best Quran methodology of teaching each type. Every public policy maker should have this information and will find no better than this very book. Educators involved in teacher development and curriculum planning would treasure this book as it provides a new avenue in helping teachers become reflective, observant, and introspective professionals as they wish to become. I consider this book unique because it is short yet powerful and right to the point. It is good for both beginners as well as advanced teachers.
