Peranan Hukum Islam dalam Pembentukan Moral dan Etika Masyarakat

Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of Islamic law in shaping the morals and ethics of society in the modern era. Utilizing a qualitative approach through library research methods, this study examines the basic concepts of Islamic law, its role in social ethics, the mechanisms of moral formation, and the challenges of its application in modern life. Primary data sources come from the Qur'an, Hadith, and the works of classical scholars such as Al-Ghazali and Yusuf al-Qaradawi, while secondary sources are obtained from indexed scientific journals. The results of the study indicate that Islamic law functions not only as a set of legal rules, but also as a system of moral values ​​​​that shape human behavior through worship, education, family, and social environment. Values ​​​​such as honesty, justice, responsibility, and social concern contained in Islamic law have proven relevant and applicable in social life. In the modern era, challenges such as the influence of globalization, social media, and secularism are major obstacles to the internalization of Islamic values. Therefore, revitalization of Islamic education, the use of digital da'wah, and contemporary ijtihad are needed as solutions to maintain the morals and ethics of society.
