Abstract

This article discusses "The Reconstruction of Cyber Begging Ethics from the Perspective of Hadith (A Thematic Study on Goals and the Concession (Rukhsah) of Begging)." This study focuses on the ethics of cyber begging through the lens of Hadith. Cyber begging refers to the phenomenon of online begging on digital media, which substantively shares similarities with traditional begging. Social media has experienced a functional shift, introducing new ways to earn an income, one of which is the cyber begging phenomenon. This research aims to analyze the formulation of cyber begging ethics from the perspective of Hadiths that prohibit begging. This study is qualitative library research employing a thematic approach (Mawdhu'i). It analyzes four primary Hadiths related to begging sourced from the Kutub al-Sittah, such as Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, Sunan Abi Dawud, Sunan al-Nasa'i, and Musnad Ahmad ibn Hanbal. The findings indicate that under Hadith teachings, begging without a genuine need is fundamentally prohibited (haram), although certain situations permit it. The ethical formulation of cyber begging comprises three main aspects: first, examining the underlying purpose and intent behind the content produced by creators; second, upholding self-dignity (muru'ah) and avoiding emotional exploitation; and third, permitting begging only if it aligns with the three categories of people granted a concession (rukhsah), as narrated in the Hadith by Qabishah.
