Lengo la elimu ni kuzalisha utu wa Kiislamu na kuongeza maarifa ya watu yanayohusiana na mambo ya maisha. Mbinu za kufundishia zimewekwa ili kufikia lengo hili; mbinu yoyote inayopelekea kwenye lengo tofauti na hili inazuiwa.

The goal of education is to produce the Islamic personality and to increase peoples’ knowledge connected with life’s affairs. Teaching methods are established to achieve this goal; any method that leads to other than this goal is prevented.

Ukweli wa makala hizi mbili ni kwamba maana ya sera ya elimu ni kanuni, au kanuni kadhaa, ambazo taarifa hutolewa kwa msingi wake. Kuhusu lengo la elimu, hili ni lengo ambalo utoaji wa taarifa hizo unalenga kulifikia. Basi sera ya elimu ndiyo msingi unaojengwa juu yake, na lengo la elimu ndiyo nia inayokusudiwa kwa kuanzishwa kwake.

Hakika ya taarifa ni kwamba ni ama taarifa inayokuza mtazamo wa kiakili ili kuhukumu vitendo na mambo, au taarifa kuhusu vitendo na mambo halisi hayo ili kuvitumia, wala hakuna kitu kilicho nje ya mambo haya mawili. Uislamu ulifanya 'Aqeedah ya Kiislamu kuwa msingi wa maisha ya Muislamu, na msingi wa mawazo yake, na kwa namna hiyo hiyo msingi wa mielekeo yake. Aya za Qur'ani, na simulizi za Mtume ﷺ zinazochochea fikra, kama vile maneno Yake (SWT):
