1)  Elaborate on the influence of the colonial in the Muslim education system.

Muslim Ummah have been suffered from serious illness after the West conquered the Islamic territory and started to abolish all the Muslim philosophy and heritage including education system. They injected their West doctrine into the Muslim community in order to emulate them as a Supreme power in the world. They filled up the Muslim community with Secularism, beliefs, culture, and their own products. Therefore, our education system becomes secular and many of our Muslim teachers and graduates becoming morally corrupted and lost their value of Islamic way of life. The West has equipped the Muslim with their Western education philosophy by inserting the elements of Essentialism, Perennialism, Progressivism, Social Re-constructionism and Existentialism into our education system. Thus, they are creating the extension between their western education and our Islamic education. So, indirectly they are trying to separate our education system from depending on our main Islamic sources which are al-Quran and al- Sunnah. Majority Muslim at this time are only holding the title of ‘Islam’ but the way they behave is not mirrored Islam at all. They have been spoon-fed by the West by the gradual nudity, excessive make-up (tabarruj), magazines, cinema, theater, television, concert and many more. So, in a way the Muslim becomes weak, absent-minded and merely tend to absorb all the rubbish things that has been portrayed by the West. Unluckily, no Muslim government, leader, university administration is going to take risk in order to ban this sinking moral of the ummah. Day by day, the Islamic vision become blurred and the Muslim do not produced any school, college, university or generation of scholars anymore. Not only the education system becomes de-islamize but the curricula for schools, colleges and universities also become shattered. At this moment, Muslim has lost its own power and identity. Unfortunately, the illiteracy, backwardness, ignorance level has occupied the Muslim continents as the impact from the Western colonization.
