This concept paper outlines the philosophical foundation of Integrated Naqli and Aqli Gifted and Talented Education (IGEd) curriculum that has been developed by Kolej PERMATA Insan, Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia. The IGEd curriculum model adopted core civilisational values from successful nations and past civilisations to groom the young, gifted Muslims with the Abqari personality. Using Falsafah Pendidikan Kebangsaan and Qalb-based education approach, the main characteristics identified in the model are Rabbaniyyah, Akhlaqiyyah, Alamiyyah, Insaniyyah and Siasiyyah (RAAIS). The RAAIS model has been developed through a series of workshops involving educational experts and each element is considered vital for nurturing future Muslim scholars. This paper derived its findings from past literature review and they helped establishing the core values and principles that will be implemented in the college’s education ecosystem. The framework will guide educators and students in every aspect of the teaching and learning process—an academic culture and benchmark for everyone to build and achieve in nurturing the mind, heart and soul of becoming a Muslim scholar with Abqari personality.
