Abstract

This study aims to examine child protection from violence and exploitation from an Islamic perspective. The research employs a qualitative method using a library research approach through the analysis of Qur’anic verses, Hadiths, and relevant literature. The findings indicate that Islam places great emphasis on protecting children as a trust that must be safeguarded. All forms of violence, whether physical, psychological, or exploitative, are prohibited because they contradict the principles of compassion, justice, and respect for human dignity. Islam also emphasizes the responsibility of parents, families, and society in ensuring the fulfillment of children's rights. Although certain Hadiths permit disciplinary measures in education, their application is strictly limited, must not cause harm, and should only be used as a last resort for educational purposes. Therefore, child protection in Islam is based on a humanistic approach that prioritizes welfare, well-being, and the optimal growth and development of children in all aspects of life
