القدوة الحسنة وأثارها في بناء المجتمع الفطابي المعاصر: دارسة تحليلية ميدانية في ضوء القرآن والسنة

Abstract

This study aims to explore the concept of a good role model and its impact on building the Islamic community in general, and the Pattani community in particular. It also seeks to identify the most important methods and means established by the Qur’an and Sunnah in shaping individuals and society, while analyse the appropriate approaches for cultivating good role models in contemporary Pattani society. The study focuses on exemplary role models among youth and adolescents to promote and develop them, as well as on negative role models to attempt reform and guidance. The study focused on several key areas, including clothing styles, beliefs, and ideas, considering them as factors influencing the behaviors and values of young people today. The researcher presented the characteristics and components of a good role model that align with the unique aspects of the Pattani community, relying on the guidance of the Qur’an and the Sunnah of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. The study employed a mixed-method research approach, using the inductive methods, content analysis, and field research to collect data on the individuals whom Muslim youth in Pattani currently consider role models. This data was analyzed to develop practical methods to promote positive role models within the community. The results indicated that most community members view family members as important role models in their lives. However, the data also highlighted the presence of other role models with significant influence, such as friends, teachers, and public figures, reflecting the community’s diverse sources of influence. Based on these findings, the optimal approach to cultivating good role models in Pattani society lies in instilling correct faith, religious knowledge, firm belief, and educational values in the hearts of community members. It is also necessary to strengthen the presence of exemplary individuals at all levels of society, whether in family, schools, local communities, or various institutions. Thus, the presence of good role models and the consolidation of their values in society directly contribute to building a cohesive Pattani community capable of facing challenges and preserving its Islamic values across generations.
