Can Music Harmonize with Islam? A Study of Teachers' Views on Music Education

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This research examines the role of music in Islamic primary education, particularly within Madrasah Ibtidaiyah, where the integration of music presents both opportunities and challenges. By conducting interviews with teachers, the study uncovers their perspectives on how music can be used to support students' intellectual and emotional growth while adhering to Islamic principles. The results suggest that while music offers significant educational benefits, its use must be carefully aligned with religious values to ensure it contributes positively to students' overall development. The study calls for ongoing dialogue among teachers to navigate the complexities of incorporating music in a way that respects both educational and religious considerations.
