Abstract

The modern humanism crisis is marked by the reduction of the human being into a material, economic, or algorithmic entity, accompanied by digital fragmentation, identity instability, and the loss of spiritual orientation. This condition reveals the limitations of secular humanism in addressing the ontological and ethical needs of contemporary individuals. This study aims to examine how the re-actualization of Islamic philosophy can provide a holistic and relevant alternative to modern humanism. Employing philosophical library research with a qualitative hermeneutic approach, the study analyzes classical Islamic philosophical texts alongside contemporary literature on humanism, spirituality, and modern crises. The findings demonstrate that the Islamic philosophical conception of the human, integrating rational, spiritual, moral, and cosmological dimensions, offers a more comprehensive ontological and epistemological foundation compared to the atomistic nature of modern humanism. By synthesizing reason (‘aql), revelation, virtue ethics, and a teleological understanding of life, the proposed Islamic humanistic framework effectively responds to contemporary challenges such as existential anxiety, digital disruption, moral decline, and ecological degradation. The study concludes that re-actualizing Islamic philosophy is not a nostalgic return to the past but a constructive effort to rebuild human dignity through the integration of rationality, spirituality, and transcendental values

Abstract

The moral crisis among Generation Z is a serious challenge in the context of 21st-century education, especially amidst the dominance of digital culture that influences their mindset, behavior, and ethical values. This generation grew up in a social environment dominated by value relativism, instant information consumption, and minimal moral role models from the family and community environment. In conditions like this, the normative and cognitive Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning approach has proven unable to touch the affective and existential dimensions of students. This study uses a literature study method with a qualitative-descriptive approach to explore the relevance and effectiveness of the humanistic approach in internalizing the values of akhlakul karimah. The humanistic approach, which emphasizes respect for personal experience, self-reflection, and empathetic relationships, is considered more capable of bridging religious teachings with students' real lives. Strategies such as experiential learning, contextual teaching and learning (CTL), and value clarification techniques (VCT) are important instruments in presenting transformative and meaningful value education. This study recommends the need for curriculum reform, humanistic teacher training, and a school culture that supports active participation and moral awareness of students. Thus, Islamic Religious Education can be a space for character formation that is not only formally religious, but also socially and spiritually meaningful.
