Abstract
One of the areas in which the concept of divine testing is discussed is the field of religion, and especially the Holy Quran. The author's attempt is to identify the components and dimensions of divine testing from the perspective of the Quran and to discuss and analyze the educational arguments of this issue in the country's educational evaluation system. This research was conducted in the form of qualitative and philosophical research and with the inductive content analysis method with a data coding system and an analytical-deductive method. he research findings show that four main categories, including the philosophy of divine testing, examples of divine testing, and the results of success and failure in divine testing, constitute the dimensions of the concept of divine testing. The results showed that divine testing is a necessary matter that plays a veto role in human salvation. The main goal of evaluation from the Islamic perspective is the growth and elevation of man and his being placed on the direct divine path; because true growth is achieved by engaging in challenges and issues, and this is accomplished by divine tests. Therefore, in educational-educational evaluation, apart from seeking to determine his comprehensive competence for promotion, it is necessary to first and foremost consider his educational and educational growth as the criterion. Therefore, evaluation acquires a qualitative and formative nature. Evaluation in this sense is not only related to the daily life of the learner, but the educational evaluator must focus his attention to a large extent on evaluating the traits and behaviors of the learner that are also effective in shaping his fate and afterlife. The educational dimension of evaluation becomes very prominent here.
