<![CDATA[The phenomenon of "Fear of Missing Out" (FOMO) presents a challenge for society, particularly the younger generation, in the digital era. High-intensity social media usage drives individuals to constantly seek social validation, thereby affecting their mental health, behavior, and spiritual quality. While various studies have examined FOMO from the perspectives of psychology, self-regulation, spirituality, and moral education, few have integrated the strengthening of aqidah (Islamic creed) and self-control as a comprehensive solution. This study aims to analyze the relevance of the ideas of Syed Muhammad Naquib Al-Attas and Ibn Miskawayh regarding the strengthening of aqidah and self-control as a means to address the FOMO phenomenon in the digital age. Employing a qualitative library research method, the study analyzes the works of both figures alongside relevant scholarly journals. The findings indicate that, according to Al-Attas, strengthening aqidah—through the concepts of the Islamic worldview and *ta'dīb* (proper upbringing and discipline)—serves as a foundation for cultivating a correct perspective, thereby preventing individuals from being easily swayed by the culture of social validation. Meanwhile, Ibn Miskawayh emphasizes the importance of self-control achieved through moral cultivation, the regulation of base desires, and the habituation of virtuous behavior. Integrating these two perspectives yields a more holistic approach by combining aspects of faith and character formation to address the challenges posed by digital media. The study concludes that strengthening aqidah alongside developing self-control offers a relevant strategy for building spiritual, moral, and psychological resilience, enabling individuals to use digital media more wisely and in accordance with Islamic values.]]>
