Abstract

This study aims to examine how the morals of Muslim kinship function as social capital in the community of Malaka Village, Pemenang District, North Lombok Regency. It also seeks to explore the factors that encourage the community to transmit these values to the younger generation. Using a qualitative approach, the research applies interviews and documentation as data collection techniques, supported by both primary and secondary sources. Findings indicate that Islamic kinship morals, such as mutual respect, compassion, solidarity, cooperation, and justice, are not only religious teachings but also serve as practical social capital in everyday life. These values play a pivotal role in shaping community harmony, fostering mutual trust, and reducing the potential for social conflict. Parents in Malaka Village deliberately educate their children about kinship ethics rooted in Islamic principles to strengthen intergenerational bonds and preserve communal identity. Furthermore, kinship morality promotes collective responsibility, facilitates cooperation in addressing community problems, and enhances welfare through mutual support. The study concludes that Islamic kinship morality serves as a sustainable social resource, reinforcing both spiritual life and social order, and providing a strong foundation for building a moral, fair, and harmonious society in Malaka Village.
