Abstract

This study addresses the limited integration of Hadith studies and cyber psychology in explaining the ethical and psychological implications of flexing culture on social media platforms such as TikTok and YouTube. Existing research has largely examined online self-presentation from either psychological or religious perspectives, leaving a gap in interdisciplinary analysis. Using a qualitative content analysis approach, this research analyzes a corpus of publicly accessible flexing-related digital content and representative user interactions on TikTok and YouTube. The data are interpreted through thematic Hadith analysis alongside Goffman’s self-presentation framework and Festinger’s social comparison theory. The findings demonstrate that the public display of wealth, lifestyle, and personal achievements in digital environments not only risks fostering Riya’ and diminishing sincerity but also intensifies social comparison, envy, and pressure to maintain unrealistic self-images. The study’s novelty lies in proposing an operational ethical-psychological framework that systematically links Hadith principles of sincerity, modesty, and wasathiyah with cyber psychological mechanisms underlying online validation and social comparison. This interdisciplinary perspective extends existing scholarship by offering a value-based analytical framework for understanding digital behavior rather than merely providing normative religious critiques. The study concludes that digital literacy initiatives should integrate Islamic ethical values with mental health considerations and recommends policy interventions to promote responsible content creation and healthier forms of digital engagement.

Abstract

The development of the Islamic banking industry in Indonesia is increasingly dynamic, marked by technological disruption, the presence of financial technology (fintech), and intense competition with conventional banking. These conditions require strategic analytical skills, particularly for students of Islamic Banking who will become future professionals in this sector. One effective analytical approach to understanding industry competition is Porter's Five Forces. However, observation results indicate that students' understanding is still limited to theoretical concepts, with minimal opportunities to apply them in real industrial case studies. This community service activity aims to enhance the knowledge, understanding, and analytical skills of Islamic Banking students regarding industry dynamics through education on Porter's Five Forces analysis. The method used is Participatory Action Research (PAR) involving 35 students as active participants through planning, action, observation, reflection, and follow-up stages. Activities included material presentation, interactive discussions, and case study analysis. Evaluation was conducted through pretest and posttest. The results showed a significant increase in students' understanding, with an average score improvement from 52.1 to 80.3 (an increase of 28.2 points). The highest increase occurred in the aspect of industrial case study analysis (30.0 points). This activity successfully bridged the gap between theoretical knowledge and industrial practice, strengthening students' strategic thinking competencies.
