Promoting Lifelong Learning Through Islamic Values: The Role of Muslim Women in Child Upbringing

Abstract

This study explores the role of Muslim women in promoting lifelong learning through the lens of Islamic values, particularly in the context of child upbringing. Drawing on Islamic teachings and educational philosophy, this research addresses the gap in understanding how Muslim women contribute to lifelong learning within the framework of Islamic values in the context of child rearing in Nigeria. It also aims to highlight the critical role that Muslim women play in shaping children's educational foundations and the impact of their efforts in fostering ongoing learning throughout their lives. By examining the experiences and perspectives of Muslim women in various educational settings, it seeks to uncover the unique challenges and opportunities they face in upholding Islamic values and promoting lifelong learning among children, using an in-depth analysis of data, a descriptive-analytical approach, and a historical and descriptive methodology. This research aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how Muslim women can effectively promote lifelong learning through Islamic values in child upbringing. The findings of this study have implications for educational policies and initiatives that aim to promote lifelong learning and empower Muslim women to play a vital role in shaping future generations. The recommendations derived from this study may include encouraging collaboration between educational institutions and Islamic scholars to integrate Islamic values into formal education curricula.
