Imam Zarnuji’s Philosophy of Education Regarding the Acquisition of Knowledge

Abstract

This paper intended to explore manners of acquiring knowledge in the light of Zarnuji’s book ” Taʿlīm al-Mutaʿalim Trīq al-Taʿlim”. The study was initiated by observing less expertise of the students despite of hardworking. The research found that Zarnuji has counted a series of manners that are of utmost importance for a student to acquire sound and useful knowledge. Moreover, he advised students that they should have pure intention, must follow the teachings of the Quran and Sunnah, and so on. By acting upon these points, they will get expertness in knowledge and it will be beneficial for them as well as for others. In light of the findings, the research recommends that students should be taught manners of acquiring knowledge so that they might have a deep understanding and get the pleasure of Allah Almighty. If students keep in view these manners they may succeed and can become valuable people to society.
