<![CDATA[This study is motivated by the phenomenon of increasingly liberal teenage social interactions that tend to normalize relationships that can lead to adultery. The purpose of this study is to examine the prohibition against approaching adultery in Surah Al-Isra’ [17]:32 based on Buya Hamka’s Al-Azhar commentary from a gender perspective. The method used is a literature review employing a qualitative approach through the analysis of various exegetical sources and relevant journals. The results indicate that the prohibition in this verse is not limited to the act of adultery itself but also encompasses all behaviors that lead to it. From a gender perspective, the study reveals a disproportionate burden of psychological, social, and moral consequences borne by women, particularly in cases of pregnancy outside of marriage. This study emphasizes the importance of religious understanding, moral education, and the roles of family and society in preventing behaviors that lead to adultery. Thus, this study is expected to contribute to enriching exegetical studies and serve as a reminder to society, particularly adolescents, to guard themselves and their behavior in accordance with Islamic values.]]>
