Education serves as a cornerstone in advancing civilization and fostering the development of a prosperous human capital. Aligned with the National Education Philosophy's goal of fostering a balanced and harmonious society, the pivotal role of educators becomes increasingly significant in the era of 21st-century globalization. This study endeavors to elucidate the methodologies of Islamic education in contemporary times. Furthermore, it seeks to delve into the multifaceted roles of teachers as "Murabbi" (mentors), "Mudarris" (instructors), "Muallim" (educators), "Muaddib" (nurturers), and "Mursyid" (guides) in instilling moral values within students, following the objectives of the National Education Philosophy. Employing a qualitative approach, this study undertakes a literature review and document analysis to discern trends and insights. Despite the evolving landscape of 21st-century education, which accentuates student-centered learning, the indispensable presence of teachers remains paramount. Teachers, operating under the paradigm of the 5M concept, continue to play a pivotal role in orchestrating the learning journey, ensuring holistic development and moral upbringing of learners. In essence, this study underscores the enduring significance of educators in navigating the complexities of contemporary education, particularly within the realm of Islamic pedagogy, while also highlighting their instrumental role in shaping the ethical fabric of society following the overarching aspirations of educational philosophy.
