The Gazi Husrev Bey Madrasa is marking its 480th jubilee in 2017. In this essay, composed for the commemorative volume “Gazi Husrev Bey Madrasa 480 Years”, the author deals with the question of the curriculum of the Gazi Husrev Bey Madrasa and of classical madrasas, which is conceptually, in its entire setup, founded on a harmonious integration of educational and pedagogic aspects. The unity of educational and pedagogic plans in Islamic educational tradition is founded on a balance of belief and knowledge, the individual and the social, the otherworldly and the worldly. In fact, the Gazi Husrev Bey Madrasa keeps the classical Islamic tradition of learning and scholarliness in which education in itself contains a moral dimension and orientation, and represents a spiritual process and programme of human upbringing. The integrative ethical character of education which the Gazi Husrev Bey Madrasa is founded on, is also exhibited in the educative concept of the chief professor which represents the guarantee of the authority of education and upbringing. Thus, the acquisition of qualities and values, as the most important goals of knowledge, is secured within the classical concept of Islamic education.
