"In trying to show a sharp contrast between liberal and Islamic conceptions of education, Halstead also claims that the latter, unlike the former, does not embrace critical view on what is revealed: “Independence of thought and personal autonomy do not enter into the Muslim thinking about edcuation, which is more concerned with the progressive initiation of pupils into the received truths of the faith.
This view that I would like to call it encyclopedic takes that Islam includes all kinds of true knowledge and information that people need: “…the divine revelation expressed in the shari’a provides them with the requisite knowledge of truth and falshood, right and wrong, and the task of individual is to come to understand this knowledge and exercise their free will to choose which path to follow.
