Rethinking Muslim Family Education in the Society 5.0 Era: An Islamic Educational Framework in Global Perspective
This study rethinks Muslim family education in the Society 5.0 era by examining how Islamic educational values interact with digital transformation and global educational discourse. Using a qualitative Systematic Literature Review, this research synthesizes peer-reviewed studies on family education, character formation, and digital parenting within Muslim contexts. The findings reveal that Muslim families are experiencing a structural and pedagogical shift from traditional caregiving roles toward integrative educational functions as primary educators, value-based digital companions, and moral exemplars. Islamic values remain foundational, yet they are increasingly actualized through dialogical parenting, digital mediation, and collaborative engagement with schools and communities. The study identifies three interrelated dimensions of effective family education: spiritual intelligence, emotional intelligence, and digital intelligence. These dimensions form an integrative framework that enables families to cultivate morally grounded, emotionally mature, and digitally responsible children. The study contributes theoretically by proposing an Islamic educational framework in global perspective and offers practical implications for parents, educators, and policymakers in strengthening character education in digitally mediated societies.
