The field of education, its various components and means of putting it into effect, have not received the attention of those who have studied the history of Arabic thought.

But thus far, research has been limited mostly to histories of educational institutions and to certain fragmentary aspects of education. Theories of education, or of areas within the field of education, have not been examined.
