The Qur'an as a Source of Solutions for the Global Moral Crisis
Keywords:
Global moral crisis, islamic education, Qur’anic solusionAbstract
The global moral crisis characterized by increasing ethical decadence, honesty crisis, degradation of human values, and shifting social norms has become a major challenge for modern society. In this context, the Qur'an as the holy book of Muslims offers fundamental solutions that are universal and transformative. This article aims to examine the role of the Qur'an as a source of moral values in responding to the global crisis from the perspective of contemporary Islamic education. Using a qualitative approach and library research, this study analyzes Qur'anic verses related to universal moral values such as justice, honesty, responsibility, compassion and peace, and how these values can be integrated into the current Islamic education system. The research findings show that the Qur'an not only provides a strong moral foundation, but also emphasizes the importance of character education based on tawhid and noble morals. In the practice of contemporary Islamic education, the strengthening of Qur'anic values needs to be realized through a relevant curriculum, a reflective pedagogical approach, and exemplary behavior from educators. This study concludes that the integration of Qur'anic values in education is a strategic and solutive step in overcoming the global moral crisis, as well as strengthening the role of Islam as a mercy for all nature.
