This study aims to analyze the history of education during the Islamic Golden Age and examine its relevance in supporting the achievement of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Quality Education. This study uses a literature review method through the analysis of various relevant scientific sources. The results of the study indicate that the educational system during the Islamic Golden Age was not only oriented toward intellectual development but also emphasized the integration of knowledge, spiritual values, and character building. The scholarly tradition that flourished through educational institutions, translation activities, and cross-cultural interactions established Islamic civilization as a global hub for scientific advancement. Majid 'Irsan al-Kilani’s perspective underscores that this progress was rooted in an education system grounded in the principle of tauhid, the integration of knowledge, and social responsibility within society. The findings of this study indicate that the educational values of Islam during the Golden Age have strong relevance to the concept of quality education that emphasizes inclusivity, justice, and sustainability. Therefore, the history of Islamic education can serve as a strategic source of inspiration in designing a modern educational system that is humanistic, adaptive, and responsive to contemporary global challenges.
