Abstract

This study aims to explore Qs. an-Nur: 11 as the foundation of social interaction ethics in dealing with hoaxes in the digital age. Although the material context has been extensively studied in various legal-formal and psychological aspects, the author adds a philosophical-religious approach based on the Qur'an, which will later be contextualized. Using Jorge J.E Gracia's hermeneutical approach, this study traces the stages of analysis: historical function, meaning function, and implicative function. The results show that the basis of Qs. an-Nur: 11 reveals values relevant to building a critical-clarificatory culture and awareness of the protection of honor in both individual and collective aspects. Furthermore, the analysis highlights that the roots of hoaxes during the time of the Prophet Muhammad emerged from epistemic violence and a lack of information literacy, which are relevant to modern issues. This leads to the integration of Islamic history and modern issues, resulting in a transformative public ethics model, meaning that revelation serves as a source of values to strengthen moral resilience in an information ecosystem prone to manipulation.
