Many of the natizens advised that the family problem should not become public news.
The field phenomenon discussed is related to the phenomenon of disclosure of family conflicts on social media, which has increased recently.
Many people like to share their personal problems, including family problems, online through various social media platforms.
This has social and psychological consequences for those who share it and the people who follow it.
One of the findings is the tendency for people to share their family situations and feelings that should have remained private, in the hope of getting support or recognition from others.
Some people may feel that social media gives them the freedom to express themselves freely, even though the negative impact can lead to deeper relationship rifts or public judgment.

Islamic Law Principles on Family Privacy and Honor As a AusyamilAy and AukaffahAy religion.
Islam pays close attention to the protection of human dignity, including family honor and privacy.
Islam not only regulates the relationship between humans and God, but also provides ethical and legal guidelines to maintain relationships between people so that they remain within the corridor of civility and respect for one another.
Keeping secrets, limiting the disclosure of disgrace, and prohibiting the dissemination of information that could damage the name of an individual or his or her family is a form of respect.
Personal and family honor is considered part of the Aual-maqashid al-shari'ah,Ay or the main purpose of sharia, especially in an effort to maintain AualAoirdhAy .
and Aual-AoaqlAy .
Therefore.
Islam sets strict limits on all forms of invasion of privacy, whether openly or covertly, especially if done with the intention of damaging or embarrassing others.
Some verses of the Qur'an Surah An-Nur verse 19, give a stern warning against the spread of vile deeds .
among people.
This verse forms the basisof Islamic law that protects people's privacy and the dignity of families from various moral and social violations.
The family is seen in Islam as the smallest unit in society and as a moral and spiritual foundation.
Therefore.
Islam pays close attention to how to maintain relationships between family members, especially in terms of maintaining privacy .
itr al-'awra.
and honor .
l-'ird.
These principles are not only included in ethical values.
they are also included in sharia law which aims to protect the rights of the family from abuse, slander, or violation of dignity.
In a family, privacy means the right of each member to have their own personal space which should not be entered or exposed without permission.
However, family honor means that it is not allowed to spread disgrace, dig up mistakes, or talk about the ugliness of one family member to others, either directly or Because the harmony of the household and society depends heavily on a commitment to care for, respect, and protect one another.
Islam builds these principles on faith and piety.

AuIndeed, those who delight in the spread of .
news that is very heinous among believers will receive a very painful punishment in this world and in the hereafter.
Allah knows, while you do not know.
Ay In Tafsir Ibnu Katsir explains that This is the third lesson to the person who hears a bad word, then his mind responds to it and wants to talk about it.
don't talk about it much, broadcast it, and spread it.
Because truly Allah SWT said:
(Indeed, those who want that .

that is, they choose for that vile word to be spread .
or them a severe punishment in this world and in the hereafte.

that is, return all matters to Allah, surely you will be guided.
It was narrated from Tha'ban that the Prophet (PBUH) said: AuDo not hurt or criticize the servants of Allah, and do not look for their For indeed, whoever looks for the faults of his Muslim brother.
Allah will expose his faults to him and humiliate him in his own home.
Ay This verse explicitly warns Muslims not to spread fAuisyahAianything that is shameful, bad, or shamefulAiamong the faithful.
In this case, the disclosure of family conflicts on social media is a clear form of spreading personal, emotional, and sensitive matters, which are very vulnerable to causing slander, humiliating one of the parties, and damaging the family's honor.
The values of sitr .
overing up disgrac.
and uife al-'ird are highly valued in Islam.
Therefore, the basic principles of sharia are contrary to actions that openly expose domestic conflicts to the public.
In addition to damaging the family's reputation, these actions can also exacerbate the conflict, create unfair public opinion, and allow for greater Moreover, the punishment that Allah promises in the verse, both in this world and in the hereafter, is a stark warning that spreading vile and shameful things is not AuhonestyAy or Authe right to opinionAy, but a great sin according to Social media, as a public space, should not be used to support behavior that indulges in personal conflict.
The prohibition of finding fault with others, this verse clearly prohibits the act of finding fault with others .
In the context of family, disclosing internal family problems on social media tends to expose the disgrace or personal faults of other family members who should be protected.
In Islam, protecting the shame and honor of fellow Muslims is an obligation, even more so when it comes to one's own family members.
Searching for or publicly revealing the faults of family members is a violation of their privacy and dignity.
This can result in a loss of respect and exacerbate tensions within the family.

Mei 2025 Prohibition of Ghibah A very important part of this verse is the prohibition of gossip, which is likened to the act of eating the flesh of a dead brother, a very powerful simile to illustrate how bad gossip is in the view of Islam.
In the case of family conflicts that are aired on social media, ghibah often occurs when one party tells the public the faults or disgraces of another family member, which may not necessarily be true or even based on emotion.
Ghibah is an act that can damage relationships between family members, as it involves insulting or talking negatively about someone without that person being present to defend 28 The Prophet made it clear that gossip is a major sin, even if what is said is true about someone:29 AuDo you know what gossip is? They .

replied: 'Allah and His Messenger know better.
' The Messenger of Allah said: 'Gossip is when you speak about your brother something that he dislikes.
' Someone asked, 'What if what I say is true?' The Prophet replied: 'If what you say is true, then it is gossip.
If it is not true, then it is slander.
'Ay (HR Muslim.
No.
The practice of disclosing family conflicts on social media can be categorized as prohibited acts, such as ghibah .

alse accusation.
30 Ghibah is talking about the badness of others without that person's knowledge or consent, while namimah is spreading negative issues that can cause hostility or discord.
on the other hand, is a false accusation that can harm the parties involved.
The Command to Fear Allah At the end of the verse.
Allah SWT reminds the believers to fear Him.
Fear here means guarding oneself from doing things that are forbidden in Islam, including guarding one's tongue and actions from spreading slander or gossip.
Allah also emphasizes that He is the Most Receptive to repentance and the Most Merciful, which means that there is always a chance for those who have done wrong to repent and improve themselves.
The Offer of Islah as a Conflict Resolution Solution In terms of dispute or conflict resolution, islah, which comes from the word A( AEAshala.

means not only resolving disputes, but also rebuilding damaged relationships with good intentions and compassion between the parties involved.
Therefore, islah is a very relevant method for resolving disputes, including family disputes that are often openly expressed on social media.
Often, the image of the family becomes worse and the personal honor of family members is damaged by family conflicts that arise in public spaces, such as social media.
An important part of the Islamic principle is to maintain AuirdhAy, or honor.
The disclosure of family problems on social media, especially those related to disgrace or internal conflict, can damage reputations and make matters worse.
Therefore, the method of islah to resolve family conflicts offers a more constructive and peaceful alternative.
The concept of islah advocates resolving conflicts in a peaceful manner by respecting the rights and honor of each party.
In this case, islah not only aims to resolve the conflict, but also to try to reconcile people and improve their relationship as a whole.
In cases where family conflicts arise on social media, islah teaches the importance of taking more thoughtful action by avoiding conflicts in public places and seeking solutions through mediation with trusted third parties, such as clerics, community leaders, and family counselors.
In resolving family conflicts, islah can be applied not only in cases of divorce or quarrels between family members.
it can also be applied to resolve disputes that arise on social Everyone in Islam is asked to try to forgive each other, repair relationships, and avoid defamation or allowing conflicts to drag on.
It is hoped that by prioritizing the principle of islah, family conflicts can be resolved with full awareness, a sense of responsibility, and harmony, both in personal life and in Concrete Steps for Implementing the Offer of Reconciliation as a Method of Conflict Resolution to resolve family conflicts that arise on social media, the principle of AuislahAy requires an approach based on Islamic principles of peace, balance, and harmony.
In situations like this, the following actions can be applied:32 The first step in implementing islah is to prioritize deliberation .
oint When there is conflict.
Islam strongly encourages open discussion and mutual understanding.
Deliberation, in the case of family conflicts that arise on social media, provides an opportunity for everyone to speak, express their thoughts and feelings, and reach a respectful agreement.
Good intentions in deliberation are very important because they are the basis for reaching constructive solutions.
During this process, it is important to avoid bad feelings or resentment.
instead, look for a middle ground for the common good and restore family harmony.
Wise and fair decision-making will be achieved through 32 Fikri Fikri.
