The discipline of educational management has become crucial in tackling the intricate problems that educational institutions now confront. However, there are still few works that trace its conceptual origins in traditional Islamic scholarship. This study looks at the idea and evolution of educational management in the educational philosophy of Badr al-Din Ibn Jama'ah, a well-known Muslim thinker whose writings highlight institutional order, leadership, and ethics in education.This study aims to examine Ibn Jama'ah's perspectives on educational administration and pinpoint his nine guiding principles that might be applied to contemporary teaching methods. The study specifically seeks to investigate his views on moral responsibility, organizational discipline, and administrative functions in educational contexts. Data from Ibn Jama'ah's seminal book, Tadhkirat al-Samiʿ wa al-Mutakallim, were gathered using a qualitative content analysis research methodology and bolstered by pertinent secondary sources. The results show that Ibn Jama'ah views educational management as a comprehensive and moral process based on duty, fairness, knowledge, and teamwork. His approach places a strong emphasis on educational leaders' professionalism, moral rectitude, and accountability. This study emphasizes how applicable Ibn Jama'ah's ideas about educational management are to modern Islamic and mainstream education systems and contributes to the methodical reconstruction of educational management ideas from Badruddin Ibn Jamaa's thought and their application in contemporary educational leadership theory.
