Hadith, Education, and Identity: An Analysis of the Integration of Imam al-Nawawi’s Forty Hadith into Malaysia’s National Curriculum

Abstract

This paper examines the integration of Imam al-Nawawi’s Forty Ha-diths into the Malaysian national education curriculum. It examines the role of Islamic education in building national identity through the lens of hadith, focusing on the “Forty Hadith Project” (Penghayatan Hadis 40), which was launched in 2023 and implemented in the 2024-2025 academic year. This project is being implemented nationwide in schools affiliated with the Ma-laysian Ministry of Education, in collaboration with the Department of Is-lamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM; Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia). In the conclusion section, along with evaluations regarding the impact of the project (absence of impact measurement, reflections of the implementation in the field), suggestions such as student attitude surveys, monitoring of dis-cipline statistics, in-service evaluation of teacher competencies and deve-lopment of common value-based complementary modules are presented. The scope of the study extends beyond primary and secondary education to explore the structure and methods of hadith education at various Malaysian universities, and the academic status of hadith education, as it paves the way for and contributes to this and similar projects. The aim of the research is to reveal how hadith education is used as a tool for identity and value construction, beyond simply being a teaching and learning material. The paper also analyses potential problems with this and similar projects. The study uses a qualitative research methodology, examining official reports, curriculum documents, and academic resources through document analysis. This study is perhaps the only example in the literature that comprehensi-vely examines the relationship between the “Forty Hadith Project” and the construction of national identity.
