Abstract

Abstract Human perfection is intrinsically linked to virtues (al-fadhā’il), namely wisdom (al-hikmah), courage (al-syaja‘ah), temperance (al-‘iffah), and justice (al-‘adalah). Through these virtues, individuals attain true happiness, which al-Ghazali in Ma‘arij al-Quds describes as beholding God in the hereafter or attaining divine knowledge (ma‘rifat al-Bāri). This study has three main objectives: first, to explain the concept of the Perfect Human (al-insan al-kamil); second, to analyze al-Ghazali’s perspective on this concept within Islamic education; and third, to examine its implementation at STIT Insan Kamil, Bogor City. The research employs qualitative methods in a descriptive, analytical, implementative, and evaluative approach, drawing on interviews with students, lecturers, and staff, supported by institutional data. For al-Ghazali, the Perfect Human is one who balances morality, intellect, and righteous deeds, achieving harmony in relationships with God, fellow human beings, and the universe. Education should therefore go beyond worldly ambitions and guide individuals toward closeness to God. At STIT Insan Kamil, this concept is applied, although Qur’an memorization targets remain less optimal and require continuous improvement. Abstrak Kesempurnaan manusia erat kaitannya dengan kebajikan (al-fadhā’il), yaitu kebijaksanaan (al-hikmah), keberanian (al-syaja‘ah), kesederhanaan (al-‘iffah), dan keadilan (al-‘adalah). Melalui kebajikan tersebut manusia mencapai kebahagiaan sejati, yang oleh al-Ghazali dalam Ma‘arij al-Quds digambarkan sebagai memandang Allah di akhirat atau mengenal-Nya (ma‘rifat al-Bāri). Penelitian ini memiliki tiga tujuan utama, yaitu menjelaskan konsep insan kamil (al-Insan al-Kamil), menganalisis pandangan al-Ghazali tentang konsep ini dalam pendidikan Islam, serta mengkaji implementasinya di STIT Insan Kamil Kota Bogor. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif, analitis, implementatif, dan evaluatif melalui wawancara dengan mahasiswa, dosen, dan tenaga kependidikan, serta ditunjang oleh telaah data kelembagaan. Bagi al-Ghazali, insan kamil adalah manusia yang mampu menjaga keseimbangan antara akhlak, intelektualitas, dan amal saleh sehingga tercapai keharmonisan hubungan dengan Allah, dengan sesama manusia, dan dengan alam semesta. Pendidikan karena itu tidak hanya berorientasi pada status duniawi atau kekayaan, tetapi bertujuan mendekatkan individu kepada Allah. Di STIT Insan Kamil, konsep ini diterapkan meskipun target hafalan al-Qur’an masih belum optimal dan terus ditingkatkan. How to Cite: Iskandar S., Saepudin, D., Husaini, A., &   Syafrin, N. (2025).

Abstract

The implementation of habituation and assignment of something good to students is something positive, especially what is accustomed to congregational prayer and dhuha prayer. This habituation will be very memorable in the minds and behavior of students. Including the assignment to be an imam, the reading of prayers after congregational prayers and dhuha prayers is more memorable than just religious knowledge. The implementation of this observation method shows that the habituation and assignment method for students at MAN 1 Bogor shows quite satisfactory results. For congregational prayers zhuhur and ashar 80% and for dhuha prayers reaching 90%, this is something extraordinary. MAN 1 Bogor whose students learn more religion than schools, such as high schools or vocational schools, has not been able to apply the habit of congregational prayer and dhuha prayer 100%. This is caused by several factors, one of which is diverse student input, and awareness for it has not been maximized. But the author is optimistic that if this method of habituation and assignment continues, it will become a habit for students in the future.
