This article examines the transmission of Islamic values within community-based religious practices through majelis taklim as a sustainable space of socio-religious interaction. Grounded in Qur’an Surah al-Naḥl [16]: 125, which articulates the principle of communication based on bi al-ḥikmah wa al-mau‘iẓah al-ḥasanah, this study explores the substantive meaning of the verse by considering its socio-historical context, particularly the circumstances following the Battle of Uhud. This research employs a qualitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach and applies the hermeneutical framework of the double movement theory. This interpretive model involves two stages: first, comprehensively understanding the textual meaning within its historical setting; second, extracting the universal moral principles embedded in the text and recontextualizing them within contemporary social realities. From the perspective of Islamic thought and moral philosophy, the concept of bi al-ḥikmah wa al-mau‘iẓah al-ḥasanah represents an ethical commu­nication paradigm grounded in religious humanism, rational argumentation, and sensitivity to human dignity. The findings indicate that effective religious message delivery does not merely rely on normative authority but also requires wisdom, empathy, linguistic precision, and persuasive engagement that appeals to both rational and affective dimensions. Therefore, this principle holds significant philosophical relevance as a foundation for ethical Islamic communication that is moderate, contextual, and supportive of an inclusive and civilized social order.
