Character Education in the Perspective of Imam Asy-Sya'rani

Abstract

This research aims to examine Imam As-Sya'rani's perspective of the moral values contained in the book of Al Minah Al Saniyah. Imam As-Sya'rani's thoughts have their value in serving as a guide in inculcating moral education and character building. That becomes relevant when looking closely at the implementation of moral education, which only touches on cognitive aspects and has not yet touched on affective (inner) aspects. By touching the minds of students, moral education can shape human character with good morals. This type of research is qualitative with a literature review approach. The results of the study show that the book Al Minah Al Saniyah emphasizes the affective (inner) aspect of moral education, which includes morals to God, morals to fellow human beings, and morals to oneself. This thought can be used as a reference in instilling moral education and character education in order to form a complete human being in character.
