Abstract

The advancement of social media has transformed the ways in which Generation Z constructs and displays self-identity in digital spaces. This study stems from academic concerns surrounding the rising use of private accounts as a form of Islamic communication strategy among young people to balance the need for self-expression with the desire to maintain privacy. This research aims to understand the meaning behind the use of private Instagram accounts for Generation Z and the strategies they employ in managing their self-identity. A qualitative method with a phenomenological approach was used, involving in-depth interviews with several informants aged 20–24 who actively use private Instagram accounts. The findings reveal that private accounts are perceived not merely as a form of data protection, but as a safe space to express a more honest and emotional side of oneself. Generation Z employs strategies such as audience selection, content regulation, and the use of features like close friends and archives to demonstrate communication practices aligned with Islamic communication values. Their ways of limiting access, evaluating the appropriateness of information, and maintaining politeness in sharing posts reflect the principles of caution (tatsabbut), safeguarding personal dignity (hifz al-‘ird), and avoiding potential harm (mudarat) from excessive openness. The use of private accounts shows that Generation Z is not only aware of digital security but also practices Islamic ethical communication in shaping their self-identity on social media.

Abstract

This study examines the meaning of the lyrics in Merra by the band Colorcode and how the song is interpreted by the “Wong Kalahan” community within the context of their social identity formation. In contemporary society, music is not merely entertainment but also a medium for self-reflection and social communication that represents emotional experiences and collective identity. Using a qualitative approach that combines Roland Barthes’ semiotic analysis with a hermeneutic paradigm, this research interprets the denotative, connotative, and mythical meanings embedded in the lyrics of Merra. The findings show that the lyrics convey themes of regret, loss, and the desire to correct past mistakes. For the Wong Kalahan community, these themes are understood not only as emotional expression but also as a form of muhasabah (self-evaluation) from an Islamic perspective. Values such as repentance (taubat), patience (sabr), sincerity (ikhlas), and acceptance of divine decree (qadarullah) emerge in their collective interpretation, where the experience of “losing” is viewed as a spiritually maturing test.
