INTRODUCTION Talking about morality is certainly very interesting because it can shape a person's personality. Morals are a reflection of real actions or the implementation of aqidah and shari'ah. The word morality in language is a plural word from the word khulukun which means character, temperament, character, custom, behavior, or a system of behavior that is made. Meanwhile, in terminology, morality is the science that determines the boundaries between good and bad, between the best and Journal homepage: www.ijosea.isha.or.id 23 ❒ e-ISSN 2776-3412 p-ISSN 2088-5342 the despicable, whether in the form of words or actions of humans, physically and mentally (Bafadhol, 2017). Morals are etymologically derived from the word "khalaqa" and is the plural form of "khuluqun" which means temperament, behavior and character. The sentence contains conformity with the word khalqun which means event, it is also closely related to khaliq which means creator and means creature (Awaliyah & Nurzaman, 2018). Akhlak means character or temperament. In various Islamic literatures, morality is defined as (Wahid, A. H., Muali, C., & Sholehah, 2018): Knowledge that explains the meaning of good and bad, the purpose of the action, as well as the guidelines to be followed. Knowledge that investigates the journey of human life as a parameter of actions, words, and life events. Permanent nature in a person who gives birth to actions easily and without the need for a thought process and a set of values that guide behavior and action (Eisenlohr, 2011). The formulation of science that is convincing and the truth that is certain both intellectually and mentally is the paradigm offered by Imam Al-Ghazali regarding the procedure for humans to have morals towards God and fellow human beings. All human morals must be guided by rational science and not deviate from the inner truth (Diasti, 2021). The moral indicators sourced from the Qur'an are (Choli, 2019): His goodness is absolute (al-khairiyyah al-muthlak), namely the goodness contained in morals is pure goodness in any environment, situation, time, and place. The goodness is comprehensive (as-shalahiyyah al-ammah), namely the goodness contained in it goodness for all mankind. Its implementation is mandatory (al-ilzam al-mustajab), which is a law of behavior that must be implemented so that there are legal sanctions. Supervision is comprehensive (al-raqabah almuhitah), which involves the supervision of Allah SWT and other humans, because the source is from Allah SWT (Ataullahjan et al., 2019) (Baharuddin & Ismail, 2015). There are two morals possessed by humans, namely despicable morals and commendable morals. Disgraceful morality is an act that is not recommended to be done because it can harm oneself and others. While commendable character is an attitude that everything is applied properly such as words, actions, and behavior. In addition, this commendable character is in accordance with what religion has recommended because this attitude is able to provide peace both for oneself and for others(Messiou et al., 2016). This Islamic morality, if applied, cannot be stolen. Isn't theft the most troubling and damaging to humanity? So, talking about humanity already exists in Islamic teachings, there is no need to focus on humanism theorized by the West(Sholihin et al., 2018). As for the things that need to be accustomed as good manners in Islam, among others (Billaud, 2018): Be brave in kindness, speak the truth and create benefits, both for yourself and for others. Fair in deciding the law without distinction of position, socioeconomic status, or kinship, wise in making decisions. Generous and likes to spend sustenance both when it is spacious and narrow. Sincere in charity solely for the sake of gaining the pleasure of Allah and quickly repent to Allah when sinning, Honest and trustworthy, not complaining in the face of life's problems, full of affection, be generous and don't take revenge, protect oneself from actions that destroy self-respect and sanctity, shame to do bad deeds and willing to sacrifice for the benefit of the people and in defense of religion(Platt et al., 2018)(Bensaid & Machouche, 2019)(Abdul Aziz et al., 2021)(Halim Tamuri et al., 2013). According to Muhammad Abdullah Darraz, the concept of the scope of morality is very broad because it covers all aspects of human life, ranging from human r (...truncated)
