Abstract

This study delves into the integration of Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) pedagogy into contemporary Initial Teacher Education (ITE) programs, with a focus on fostering empathy and inclusivity among educators. Through a systematic literature review, this research extracts timeless pedagogical strategies from his teachings, illustrating their alignment with modern educational methodologies. The findings underscore the significance of empathy, adaptability, and cultural competence in effective teaching, advocating for the integration of his holistic approach into ITE curriculum and professional development initiatives. Drawing inspiration from contemporary educational research, this paper urges educators to embrace Prophet Muhammad's pedagogical legacy, aiming to enhance inclusive and effective learning environments within ITE and broader educational practices.
