Abstract

This paper explores Abdullah Nashih Ulwan's ideas about exemplary methods and their urgency in moral education. In this writing, the author uses the Content Analysis approach, so that the results of the study are not numbers but interpretations and words. The data collection was carried out with literature review techniques by making the book Tarbiyatul Aulad Fil Islam by Abdullah Nashih Ulwan as primary data, and the literature relating to the object of this study as secondary data. Then the data collected is analyzed using content analysis, i.e., by sorting out the data collected to analyze its contents according to what is needed so that a conclusion can be drawn. This research proves as follows: 1) According to Nashih Ulwan, the exemplary method is a method used in education in the context of forming the character of children by means of educators providing good role models for children. The examples of role models that must be exemplified by an educator are humility, courage, patience, honesty, piety, and firmness in children. 2) The importance of moral education in an educator must have a character or character that reflects good behavior in all aspects, especially in aspects of worship and morals. Educators must instill good attitude or role models in children.
