Nilai Pendidikan Karamah dalam Perspektif Hadis Nabi

Abstract

This study seeks to examine the educational values embedded in the concept of karamah from the perspective of the Prophet’s Hadith. Rather than viewing karamah merely as extraordinary phenomena experienced by saints, this research positions it as a medium of spiritual and moral education that strengthens faith, sincerity, and istiqamah. This study employs a qualitative-descriptive approach using a thematic (maudhu‘i) method in Hadith studies, by collecting relevant authentic Hadiths related to karamah and analyzing them through classical Hadith commentaries (syarh al-hadith).  The findings reveal that kar?mah in the Hadith tradition contains profound educational values, including the cultivation of monotheism (tawhid), humility, consistency in obedience (istiqamah), moral integrity, and awareness of Allah’s absolute power. Karamah is not an indicator of personal superiority, but rather a pedagogical instrument that directs believers toward ethical conduct and spiritual maturity. The novelty of this research lies in its shift of focus from the ontological debate on the existence of kar?mah to its pedagogical function, highlighting kar?mah as a value-based educational concept rooted in Hadith literature. This approach differentiates the study from previous works that predominantly emphasize theological justification or mystical narratives, by offering an educational framework grounded in prophetic tradition.
