Disunity, disintegration between religious and non-religious knowledge integrally and immensely contributed to this dilemma. The scriptural manual of guidance, the Quran has been neglected from being the basis of educational policy and curriculum among a vast majority of Muslims.

Various scholarly studies have examined the classical works on the classification and integration of religious and non-religious knowledge among the contemporary Muslims by considering the Qur’anic model and tawhidic paradigm. This paper primarily aims at examining the classification and integration of knowledge from the Qur’anic model. Accordingly, the scriptural book, chapter 62 verse 2 will be critically analyzed. The paper is library-based whereby both primary and secondary sources will be extensively analyzed.
