Abstract

This study examines Shaykh Nawawi al-Bantani’s thought on the role of tawhid (Islamic monotheism) as the foundation of moral education. It aims to analyze how the values of tawhid shape moral principles within the framework of Islamic educational thought. The study employs a qualitative approach using content analysis of Shaykh Nawawi’s major works, including Tafsir Munir, Nashoihul ‘Ibad, Maraqil ‘Ubudiyah, Bahjatul Wasa’il, Nurudzdzolam, Qami’uttughyan, and Fathul Majid. The analysis focuses on identifying key concepts related to tawhid and examining their implications for moral education. The findings reveal that tawhid serves as the central foundation for moral formation. The internalization of tawhid encourages the development of noble character, directs the purpose of learning toward seeking the pleasure of Allah, and fosters sincerity in worship, thereby strengthening spiritual devotion. In addition, tawhid cultivates acceptance of divine decree and promotes recognition of the unity of creation, humanity, life guidance, and life purpose. Collectively, these values construct a moral identity rooted in the principles of Islamic monotheism. This study highlights the conceptual relationship between tawhid and moral education in Shaykh Nawawi al-Bantani’s thought and contributes to the development of Islamic moral education by emphasizing tawhid as its fundamental ethical and spiritual foundation.
