Knowledge Skill Attitude Entrepreneurship Education Qur'anic PerspectiveAbstract
This study explores the concept of Knowledge, Skill, and Attitude (KSA) in entrepreneurship education as seen in the Qur'an and develops a suitable learning model for it. It is motivated by the continuing weakness of entrepreneurial spirit in Indonesia, the prevalence of an employee mindset, and the limited place of Qur'anic values in entrepreneurship education. Using qualitative library research and the thematic exegesis (tafsir maudhu'i) approach of Al-Farmawi and M. Quraish Shihab, the study draws its primary data from Qur'anic verses on entrepreneurship and its secondary data from works of tafsir, hadith collections, and other relevant literature. The results show that: (1) KSA is a basic framework of entrepreneurship education that covers knowledge, skills, and attitudes rooted in Qur'anic values; (2) the Qur'an reflects the KSA concept through six key terms, namely al-kasb (earning), al-sa'y (striving), al-'amal (working), al-tijarah (trade), al-rizq (provision), and al-fadhl (divine bounty), which can be mapped onto the knowledge, skill, and attitude domains; and (3) the KSA learning model can be implemented through the four stages of David Kolb's experiential learning theory, namely concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation. The study offers Qur'anic Entrepreneurship Learning, a construct that integrates Qur'an-derived knowledge, skill, and attitude into Kolb's experiential learning cycle, as a new theoretical contribution to scholarship on entrepreneurship education grounded in Qur'anic values.
