Abstract
The Qur’ān was revealed to Muhammad in order to elevate humanity from the valley of darkness to brightness. History proves that the jahiliyyah society which has no civilization and the direction and purpose of life was successfully brought by Muhammad to a new, more civilized life, under the light of faith and respects for human dignity. Character education will give color to the nation’s character education. Therefore, education is a transformation towards the best educational outputs. All of us, as the children of the nation, is the result of education through informal, formal and non-formal educations which are the three types of education recognized in Indonesia. Our education is education that comes from heaven and is applied by looking at the reality of the earth. The national character of the Qur’an is born from education with the Qur’an characters as well. Therefore, the state must provide a wider space for Islamic religious education in national laws and curricula.
