Transformation Of Soul Education In The Digital Era: A Synthesis Of Al-Ghazali And Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah’s Thought
Abstract
The digital era has precipitated a crisis of student subjectivity, marked by doomscrolling, algorithmic addiction, and profound ethical disorientation. Responding to this, this study constructs a framework of "Tazkiyah-Based Digital Resilience" not merely as a regulatory measure, but as an internal spiritual fortification. Grounded in Gadamer’s philosophical hermeneutics, particularly the fusion of horizons, this research orchestrates a dialogue between classical Islamic Sufism and contemporary digital pathologies. The findings establish a complementary synthesis: Al-Ghazali provides the epistemological anchor by positioning the qalb (heart) as the center of moral consciousness to discern information truth, while Ibn Qayyim contributes the transformative mechanism through the graded discipline of maqāmāt. This synthesis yields an applicative pedagogical model where mujāhadah is reinterpreted as active digital resistance, muraqabah as intrinsic digital integrity, and muhāsabah as a reflective information audit. Ultimately, this framework shifts the paradigm of Islamic Religious Education from external prohibition toward internalized spiritual sovereignty, empowering students to navigate the digital flood with authentic self-control.
