Higher education in the light of Tawhidic epistemology: Islamic obligation in the pursuit of academic knowledge
Abstract
When a student learns a subject to promote good causes, protect human rights and the environment, or prevent harms and injustices, their pursuit of knowledge becomes an act of worship. If a student gains skills in language and literature to challenge epistemic wrongs, their field of studies becomes Islamic and connected with the divine.
