Teaching Islamic manner of behaviour and tenants of the Islamic faith to children is the main purpose of maktab class. This very significant element of the upbringing and education process within the Islamic Community has, since the year 2017, undergone a reform in a sense of construction and putting in practice a new Teaching Plan and Programme for these classes and presenting a new Ilmihal. This article presents experiences of implementation of the new Teaching Plan and Programme and the new Ilmihal for the first, second, and third level of maktab class which is primarily aimed at focusing the educational and upbringing activities upon intentions of the Teaching Plan and the new textbook. Advantages and disadvantages of existing educational norms and tools in a form of textbooks for maktab class are presented through various aspects of situations experienced by muallims in teaching the maktab class. Carried out in a spirit of innovative methods, the reforms have a special focus on individual learning keeping in mind the aptitudes of each student.
