Education is a system and one-way humans improve the quality of life in every aspect of human life. In the history of humanity, almost no group of people has not used education as an instrument of culture and quality improvement, even though the condition of the society is left behind (Sanaky, 2003). Islamic education is a solution for the rapid development of the times and not accompanied by the development of enough human resources so that the development of the era will affect the community. This phenomenon impacts religious, social life and the development of community education in a direction that should not happen, because of the people who are experiencing rapid lag in time to adjust (Bogmatsera, et al, 2019).
