Who has made outstanding contributions to Arab traditional education theory?

One person who has made outstanding contributions to the traditional educational theory is the famous historian Ibn Hareton. Ibn Khaldoun is a native of Tunisia, and his historical philosophy works contain rich educational thoughts. Ibn Khaldun once expressed his insights on the sociality and practicality of education, and clearly pointed out that education is also a social phenomenon and a social occupation, which is more and more closely related to the skills training and daily life needs of urban citizens, and is not limited to people's religious life. In his Introduction to History, he deeply analyzed the social function of education from the perspective of historical development, and pointed out that the level of education is directly related to the rise and fall of human society. Taking Baghdad, Kufa and Basra as examples, Ibn Khaldun explained that the rapid development of culture and education in these cities in the early Islamic period was closely related to the rise of commerce and handicrafts, which was the inevitable result of the development of social material civilization. He also believes that education should enable people to learn the ability to adapt to the social environment. Man is a social person, and his education is restricted by human civilization and various forces, including material strength, intellectual strength and spiritual strength. He also emphasized that human beings are rational animals and rational science is the foundation of all knowledge. Rationality can help people get regular knowledge and understand the relationship between different concepts in the learning process. Like Ansari, Ibn Khaldoun believes that human reason, as a cognitive tool, has its limitations. When reason is powerless, it will eventually resort to the unmistakable apocalypse.
