This article aims to analyze the theory of Islamic education management science through an ontological perspective by referring to the thoughts of a number of Muslim experts, such as Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas and Imam al-Ghazali. This ontological approach focuses on the nature of humans, the purpose of education, and how Islamic education management is structured in accordance with Islamic values. Using the literature review method, this article presents basic concepts in Islamic education and their relevance to education management. The results of the study show that ontology in Islamic education emphasizes the balance between spiritual and material dimensions, as well as the importance of integrating knowledge and morals in every aspect of education.
