Abstract

This paper aims to examine the ideas of al-Ghazali’s thought on the prophetic character education which is based on akhlaqi Sufism. It was carried out through a literature study method sourced from the classic books by al-Ghazali, which was the main reference in finding the substance of the prophetic character education. In his view of the prophetic character education, it is found several concepts namely 1) the formulation of prophetic character education must be built based on religious values in accordance with the Qur’an and the Sunnah as the main reference. 2) the components of the prophetic character education, namely educational objectives, materials, methods, educators, and students based on akhlaqi Sufism, must be based on the concept of Purification of the Soul (Takziyyatun Nafs) as a basic framework of values that focuses on the formation of prophetic character education to produce a generation with good character (akhlaqul karimah). 3) The character prophetic based on al-Ghazali’s akhlaqi Sufism is an alternative in eroding rationalist and empirical thought patterns that trap humans in spiritual emptiness (nihilism).
