Abstract

The Islamic Political Theory of the Abbasid Daula Era was a complicated and tense political problem that was able to undermine the joints of the ummah that had been firmly built by the Prophet. The collapse of the Abbasids resulted in Islamic education also experiencing a setback, among which setbacks were marked by the development of Sufi teachings, then a narrowing of the Islamic education curriculum which had an impact on intellectual development.Describing the destruction of the Abbasid dynasty and its influence on the implementation of education in the Islamic world. This research uses library research. The collapse of the Abbasid dynasty was caused by two factors, the first was internal factors in the form of internal conflicts of the royal family, the emergence of military domination, financial problems, the establishment of small dynasties, the vastness of the territory, and religious fanaticism. The second factor is the external factor, namely the crusades and attacks by the Mongol army. The collapse of the Abbasids resulted in a decline in Islamic education, marked by the development of Sufi teachings, the narrowing of the Islamic education curriculum which had an impact on intellectual development. On the other hand, intellectuals did not develop due to the paradigm among the Muslims at that time that the door to ijtihad had been closed. With the collapse of the Abbasid empire there was no longer any possibility to tell the history of the Middle East from a central point of view. This has resulted in the emergence of new features in the separate Islamic world.
