Description
Summary:The present study aims to identify the types of natural elements addressed in specialized courses from the perspective of the Qur'an, to derive a descriptive model for them, and to explore their related educational-pedagogical implications for specialized curricula. Given its multidimensional nature, this research employs a combination of qualitative methods for data collection, analysis, and coding. Data analysis and coding were conducted using a grounded theory strategy with MAXQDA software, encompassing open, axial, and selective coding. Additionally, an inferential approach was applied to extract educational-pedagogical implications for specialized courses. Initially, a comprehensive reading of Qur'anic verses was performed. The relevant data were then coded, categorized, and typologized. The final model was utilized to infer educational-pedagogical implications. The study's findings indicate the existence of 198 open codes related to natural elements in Qur'anic verses, categorized into four selective codes: inanimate objects (jamād), plants (nabāt), humans (insān), and animals (ḥayawān). These four categories were further divided into 13 axial codes. The analysis yielded six principles for specialized courses: Scientific epistemology through the lens of religion, Stylistics and critical analysis of specialized texts, transitioning from order to the Organizer, Certainty in Allah and His attributes, Establishing truth, and Viewing nature as a model and sign (āyah).
