dc.description.abstract | This research aims to discuss the concept of moral values in Buddhism according to an Islamic perspective. This academic research also examines ethical and moral resources and the importance and objective of ethical morality in Islam and Buddhism. Therefore, this research was conducted to find and discuss moral and ethical values in Islam to be made a universal value acceptable to all people and to see the Islamic view on the con-cept of sīīla (moral/ethical values) in Buddhism. This research was conducted using a qualitative method, a library study concerning books, magazines, articles, journals and other reading materials. This research covers four discussion chapters, which are the central pillar of this study. The first part introduces the research as a whole and is fol-lowed by the second chapter, which discusses moral values in Buddhism. The third chapter talks about universal moral values in Islam. Meanwhile, the fourth and last chap-ters contain an analysis from an Islamic perspective of the concept of sīīla (ethical moral values) in Buddhism. The research found significant similarities and differences in the moral values of Islam and Buddhism. While both religions share common ethical princi-ples, they also maintain distinct teachings that set them apart. Islam recognizes these shared values without equating the two religions and respects the unique aspects of Buddhism’s moral framework. Both Buddhism and Islam emphasize the importance of ethics, promoting virtues such as purity of thought, patience, modesty, truthfulness, kindness, and forgiveness, while condemning vices like lying, stealing, and murder. Both traditions see ethical living as crucial for addressing moral, personal, social, and international issues. Despite their differing philosophical foundations, these differences do not undermine their shared commitment to righteous conduct and the vital role of eth-ics in human life. | |
