Abstract

This study aims to analyze the concept and implementation of parental moral responsibility in children’s education based on the perspectives of the Qur’an and Hadith. This study is motivated by the weakening of the moral role of the family in the modern digital era, which demands a renewed understanding of the responsibility for children’s education. This study uses a qualitative approach with literature review and content analysis of verses from the Qur’an and Hadith of the Prophet SAW that are relevant to moral education in the family. The results of this study indicate that the basic concept of parental moral responsibility is based on the values of faith, exemplary behavior, and compassion, as well as spiritual supervision, as reflected in QS. Luqman 13-19 and the hadith on leadership. These values emphasize that children’s education is a religious mandate that is considered an act of worship. The implementation of this moral responsibility is manifested through exemplary behavior, giving advice, supervision, and instilling good character in family life. This study concludes that the integration of the values of the Qur’an and Hadith is the basis for shaping children’s character to be faithful, moral, and responsible in the digital age.
