Abstract

This study aims to analyze the convergence theory from the Islamic perspective, the study of fitrah education in QS. Ar-Rūm verse 30. Convergence theory is a classical theory that has existed for decades, continues to develop, and is used in education. This theory believes that there are two leading factors in human development: nature and nurture. Meanwhile, Islam has its perspective in viewing this belief, namely that humans are born with fitrah (nature) from Allah. This fitrah is what human beings are equipped with to grow and develop. This research was library research; hence, the data were taken from books, journals, and scientific articles. Data analysis was completed descriptively, comparatively, and associatively. The results showed that the convergence theory views the importance of nature and nurture factors. Islam also believes equivalently; the difference is that the nature in convergence theory is more towards heredity, which is inherited from parents through genes. Meanwhile, for Islam, human nature from birth is fitrah, namely being a good, fair, lucky, intelligent, civilized human being, and obedient to Allah. The second difference is the orientation of convergence theory, which leads to personal maturity and the welfare of human life in the world. Islam views its orientation as ma’rifatullah and true religiousness.
