Abstract
Adult education (andragogy) in the Society 5.0 era faces serious challenges in the form of a crisis of manners (adab) and "intellectual ego," which often reduces the essence of knowledge to merely functional-technical aspects. This study aims to reconstruct the concept of andragogy by analyzing the pedagogical dimensions in the story of Prophet Musa AS and Prophet Khidr AS based on the perspective of Ibn ‘Asyur's Interpretation (Tafsir). Using a qualitative method with a library research type and a hermeneutic-pedagogical approach, this study examines four main elements of learning: goals, educators, learners, and educational materials. The results show that Ibn ‘Asyur's Tafsir offers an andragogy model that transcends Western paradigms by emphasizing intellectual humility, continuous spiritual supervision, and the integration of "ladunni" knowledge as a balancer to academic positivism. The implications of this study confirm that adult education in Islam must place faith (aqidah) and morals (akhlak) as the main foundation to form learners who are not only professionally competent but also spiritually mature.
