Abstract

The objective of this research was to investigate the concept of taste sense and its educational implications in Islamic education. It also examined the importance of the sense of taste as a tool and method of learning, teaching, and upbringing. The study employed a descriptive approach, specifically content analysis. The findings revealed that the references to taste sense and its terminology in the context of the Quran were repeated (63) times, using various verb forms. The term "flavor" was more prevalent in verses related to punishment compared to other verses. It was also frequently found in the Meccan Surahs, which specifically addressed those who denied resurrection. The term "flavor" was used in relation to food and drink in three verses. Certain Islamic factions believe that true understanding can be acquired through taste rather than intellect. The study recommended incorporating the sense of taste in the process of learning.
