The two ideas of educational figures that are presented in this simple work are recognized as being able to answer the challenges of implementing contemporary education which is considered to be far from the expectations of the community. Where the implementation of education is still carried out mechanically which is proven to distance students from their culture and the management of education is carried out with the principle of profit oriented (seeking profit). The type of research used in this study uses a library research approach . The data collection technique in this study is a library through written sources such as books, journals, research reports, and sources from the internet.
