Prophetic Ethics and Moral Resilience: An Innovative Framework for Navigating Contemporary Tribulations

This study develops an innovative ethical framework for navigating contemporary tribulations by drawing upon Prophetic traditions. It begins with an exploration of the concept of tribulation (*fitan*) through linguistic, terminological, Qur’anic, and Prophetic perspectives, situating it within both classical Islamic thought and modern challenges. The research then examines the role of ethics in shaping moral resilience, stability, and clarity during times of crisis. Using inductive and analytical methodologies, the study systematically investigates relevant Prophetic hadiths, the practices of the Companions in confronting tribulations, and insights from classical and contemporary commentaries. By synthesizing these sources, the paper proposes a forward-looking ethical paradigm rooted in Prophetic guidance that offers practical principles for managing crises, addressing social and moral disorientation, and fostering resilience in Muslim societies today. This contribution enriches the field of Islamic ethics and provides an innovative model for contemporary scholarship on religion, ethics, and crisis management.
