Hermeneutics, etymologically derived from the Greek word hermēneuein, means to interpret or explain. In the philosophical tradition, hermeneutics evolved from a method of interpreting sacred texts into a philosophical approach to meaning, language, and human existence. Paul Ricoeur, a French philosopher who combined phenomenology and hermeneutics, offered a distinctive approach: hermeneutics as a dialectic between explanation and understanding, between the structure of the text and lived experience. Ricoeur discussed not simply how texts are interpreted, but how interpretation becomes a path to understanding oneself, the world, and ethical action. In the context of education, this thinking opens up space for curriculum, supervision, and pedagogical practice to be understood as living and reflective interpretative processes.In the world of Islamic education, which is imbued with symbolic and spiritual values, understanding a text is not simply reading, but interpreting its meaning. Paul Ricoeur, a leading hermeneutic philosopher, offers a profound interpretive approach to texts, symbols, and meaning. Ricoeur's theory of interpretation is relevant in the context of Islamic educational supervision, where the interpretation of religious documents, practices, and values must be conducted reflectively and contextually
