<![CDATA[This article aims to analyse the interpretation of Hadith No. 6179 from Sahih al-Bukhari regarding the prohibition of negative self-labelling (khabuṡat nafsī) and the encouragement of positive self-expression (laqisat nafsī), as well as to formulate its implications for character education in addressing learners’ insecurity. This study employs a qualitative method in the form of library research, utilising the fiqh al-ḥadīṡ approach developed by Muhammad Yusni Amr Ghozali, integrated with a pedagogical perspective. The results indicate that this hadith is ṣaḥīḥ in terms of both its chain of transmission (sanad) and text (matan). Linguistic analysis and the opinions of scholars indicate that this prohibition is of an irsyādī nature (educative-ethical/sunnah). Conceptually, this study formulates a constructive framework suggesting that the integration of value-based positive self-talk derived from the hadith can serve as a reflective pedagogical strategy to foster students’ mental health and character resilience.]]>
