The Relevance of Moral Education Values in Mausū'ah al-Ādāb al-Islāmiyyah to the Development of Children's Emotions

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the moral education values found in Mausū'ah al-Ādāb al-Islāmiyyah by ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz Nadā and their relevance to the development of children's emotions in contemporary contexts. Employing a library research method with a manuscript study approach, this research engages directly with the text, supported by secondary data sources without spatial and temporal limitations. Through content analysis, the study categorizes and interprets the moral values presented in the manuscript, particularly those related to ethics toward Allah, the Prophet Muhammad, Qur'anic engagement, knowledge acquisition, and the educational process, including emotional development in children. The study reveals that values such as sincerity, respect, emotional balance, honesty, fairness, and responsibility are not only in line with Islamic principles but also relevant to contemporary approaches in child developmental psychology. The application of these values in parenting, education, and religious guidance can help shape individuals who are emotionally mature, spiritually strong, and morally upright. This research affirms that classical Islamic moral teachings can be effectively contextualized as practical guidance for nurturing children's character in today's world.
