Abstract

This article will describes the role model of modernization of education in Egypt and it’s implication for education in Indonesia. This research is done by a qualitative research approach. The collecting data is done by three techniques, namely interview, observation, and document review. This research conclude Firstly, education in Egypt, especially at Al Azhar University teaches Islam wasatiyah which corresponds to the culture of Indonesia's diversity. A moderate outlook becomes a trademark of Al Azhar University alumni. This alumni model is needed to guard the diversity in Indonesia as one of the pillars of the unitary state of the Republic of Indonesia. Secondly, Al Azhar University alumni have contributed significantly to advancing Islamic moderatism in Indonesia. It is realized with the alumni's gait in advancing Islamic education such as madrassas and Islamic colleges that prioritize moderate Islam.
