Islamic Education And Religious ‘Islamic’ Formation For Algerian Students (Content Analysis Of The Islamic Education Book For The Fourth Year Primary School As A Model)

Abstract

Through this study, we aim to identify the extent to which the stated educational and religious value objectives are linked to the Islamic educational content presented in Algerian schools. The written content should constitute the substance that contributes to transmitting and consolidating the religious values that the learner must acquire during a specific educational stage, to ensure proper Islamic upbringing and build an integrated religious identity in its three dimensions: belief, worship, and religious culture. To verify this, we turned to the school books, specifically the Islamic Education textbook for the fourth primary year, using the content analysis technique, to determine the extent to which the analyzed book contributes to producing a student firmly attached to their authentic religious values and identity.
