The development of modernization, globalization, and digital technology has presented serious challenges for contemporary Islamic education, particularly in the form of identity crisis, moral disorientation, and reductionistic tendencies in understanding humans only as intellectual or productive beings. This article aims to analyze the nature of humans in the Qur'an through the integration of the concepts of fitrah, insan, an-n?s, basyar, khalifah, and 'abd, and explain their implications for the reconstruction of contemporary Islamic education. This article uses a qualitative approach based on literature studies with the thematic interpretation method (maudhu'i), namely collecting and analyzing Qur'anic verses related to the main terminology of humans in a descriptive analytical manner. The results of the article show that the Qur'an views humans as multidimensional beings who have spiritual potential (fitrah), intellectual-moral (insan), social (an-n?s), biological (basyar), civilizational responsibility (khalifah), and transcendental orientation ('abd). All these dimensions form a complete foundation and become the philosophical foundation of Islamic education. The implications of this article emphasize that Islamic education needs to be developed in a holistic and integrative manner, not only oriented towards the transfer of knowledge, but also towards the formation of perfect human beings who are faithful, knowledgeable, moral, socially responsible, and able to face the challenges of modernity without losing their divine orientation
