Pendekatan Antropologis dalam Studi Islam

Abstract

Anthropological approach to understand religion means an attempt to understand
religion by looking at the form of religious practices that are growing in society.
Anthropology is a discipline that conveys the world view that depends on the
scientific perspective, philosophical view, or religious beliefs. With this world view
one can understand their own world. By studying anthropology, we can realize
the cultural diversity of humankind and its influence in education. Education can
be defined as a process of learning, the provision of knowledge, skills and attitudes.
Education can be obtained through formal and informal institutions. Teaching
culture through informal institutions is done through enculturation in the family
environment. Finally, learners are guided to be responsible with all the knowledge
they have learned, to live in the society with thier potentials, and control nature
for the purpose of pleasing the holy God Almighty.
