Conceptualizing Ibn Khaldun's Thought Strategy In Student Career Planning

Abstract

Career planning, integral to both worldly success and spiritual fulfillment, shapes individuals' paths toward becoming better Muslims. Aligning career choices with Islamic teachings ensures prosperity and ethical integrity. This study integrates Islamic ideals into career planning, drawing insights from Ibn Khaldun's philosophy, particularly from his work "al-Muqaddimah". Document analysis reveals Ibn Khaldun's four levels of human intellect: holistic understanding, evaluative intellect, analytical intellect, and discerning intellect. It provides career navigating and aiding students in crafting comprehensive career plans that resonate through this life and the hereafter. This research aims to bridge temporal pursuits with eternal aspirations, enriching students' holistic development.
