Abstract

This study aims to explore the contribution of Imam Al-Ghazali's moral education philosophy to the development of character education in a pluralistic social context and contemporary global challenges. Departing from the phenomenon of moral crisis among Indonesia's younger generation, this study highlights the weak integration of ethical and spiritual dimensions in the national education system. The method used is a qualitative approach with literature review as the main technique, analysing Al-Ghazali's major works such as Iḥyā’ ‘Ulūm al-Dīn and verses from the Qur'an related to ethics and education. The results of the analysis show that moral values such as ṣidq (honesty), ‘adālah (justice), raḥmah (compassion), and amānah (responsibility) have universal dimensions and the potential to shape a well-rounded personality, both spiritually and socially. These values can be implemented through spiritual internalisation and moral habituation in the formal education process. This study proposes the Islamisation of the curriculum as a strategic step to integrate Qur’anic values into the national education system. Practical implications include curriculum reformulation, value-based teacher training, and holistic character evaluation. Thus, education based on Al-Ghazali's values not only offers a solution to the moral disorientation of the younger generation but also shapes an inclusive and civilised social order in the face of global challenges
