Akhlak Penuntut Ilmu dalam Al - Qur’an Perspektif Tafsir Fi Zilal Al - Qur’an

Abstract

This study examines the ethics of knowledge seekers in Qur’an 96:1–5, 16:43, and 20:114 through Sayyid Qu?b’s interpretation in Fi Zilal al-Qur’an and considers their relevance to contemporary Islamic education. Using qualitative library research, it applies a limited thematic exegesis, descriptive-analytical approach, and content analysis. The findings identify three interrelated dimensions: faith and spirituality (learning with orientation toward God, recognizing human limitations, gratitude, and responsibility); epistemic and social ethics (acknowledging ignorance, asking questions, consulting qualified authorities, intellectual honesty, and active reasoning); and learning-process ethics (calmness, care, patience, continuous learning, and prayer). These values remain relevant to digital education challenges such as unverifiable information, instant-result culture, academic dishonesty, and weakened respect for teachers. Learning in the Qur’anic perspective is thus both intellectual acquisition and moral-spiritual formation.
