description The article aims to discuss some of the key components of Syed Ahmed's naturalism as a framework for understanding human growth, especially in the area of education within the framework of revealed text. This may make it easier to comprehend his modernist idea of education and naturalism in the context of Islam (as revealed in the book), and it may also help one recognize that, as long as one stays true to the core teachings of Islam, Islam is not a barrier to advancement. In the first section, I will briefly discuss some of the currents in naturalism that were put forth by Western philosophers in Europe during the nineteenth century (West) as background to illustrate how it differs from religious naturalism that was motivated by revelation and elaborated by Syed Ahmed. In the next part, I shall contend that Syed Ahmed's naturalistic argument is not an attempt to replace God with nature, but rather an attempt to establish a system for offering a rationalistic explanation of Islam. In contrast to his counterparts in the West, Syed Ahmed bases his theory of nature on the revealed text. Therefore, in my opinion, he believes that nature is a creation of God, much like the universe, humans, and other creatures, and that it is not real in and of itself. It implies that nature is constantly subject to the laws established by God and has no purpose when apart from its creator. The aforementioned points are not only beneficial for broadening one's understanding of Syed Ahmed's naturalism, but they are also essential for demonstrating how one may infer a modernist philosophy of education based on his naturalism.
