Abstract

This research investigates the Islamic approach in islamicization of knowledge as
the oldest approach in theorizing Islamic training knowledge. In doing do, at the first
step the definitions of the terms, islamicization of knowledge, Islamic training, and
methodology are presented and then the most important ideas of Islamic scholars,
namely Abdolrahman Naqib, the Egyptian Islamic training expert, in this approach
are, fundamentally and methodologically, discussed. Eventually, the most important
weaknesses and strengths of the approach as well as the degree of the success of the
followers in achieving their goals are mentioned. It seems that, although the
approach has had a considerable role in the formation a cultural movement with
regard to the necessity of reproduction of Islamic training knowledge and provision
of scientific literature, it suffers from weakness in foundations and theoretical depth
to play a significant role in contemporary education.
