and technology or all the amenities, inventions and physical structures built, but it is actually meant to
complement the truth of humanity. In the Curriculum Structure for Teacher Education, Islamic Education is
taught to teacher trainees by revealing several important topics such as concepts, characteristics, policies,
principles, purposes, sources and the uniqueness or specialty of Islamic Civilization. Humans are

Al-Quran is a book of wisdom consisting of Allah’s words and it is revealed to Prophet Muhammad S.A.W. to
educate and guide humans to fulfill the quality in human capital. In fact, it is Allah S.W.T. who creates human
beings, thus He knows the strengths and weaknesses of each one of us. Thus, some qualities which stated has

performing good deeds to Allah. This fits in with the human nature which needs Allah’s attention and care.
