Holistic Methods to the Formation of Integrity: Their Significance in Civilizing the Community by Imam Al-Juwayni

Abstract

This paper aims to shed light on the integrity value ideas that were specifically developed by Imam al-Juwayni since the fifth decade in the Hijri calendar through a holistic usuli thought method. It indeed has become a universal need throughout the time to realize the civilization of humankind in achieving the prosperity of life in the world and hereafter. Nowadays, our society is often blamed and scapegoated when such bad phenomena as bribery, abuse of power as well as the confusion in actions and behaviors occur thus deviating them from the true path of life. Therefore, Islam always nurtures and promotes the value ideas that should be practiced in comprehensive life of humankind. Some prominent figures in Islam have emerged to recommend some integrity values in order to form understanding besides elevating the quality of behaviors among the community members effectively. One of the figures who proposed the usuli method is Imam al-Juwayni. Based on a qualitative research including the historical studies and content analysis, the writer will illustrate some methods that are successfully used in gaining knowledge, understanding, awareness, wisdom and their appreciation. In this case, Imam al-Juwayni has been recognized to successfully outline the integrity value ideas as a practical system in creating the excellent generation.
