Abstract

Recently, morality towards God and man has begun to decline. This is evidenced by the many news related to people's daily lives that deviate from religious teachings and social norms, so that differences trigger violence and bullying. The purpose of this research is as a solution for someone who has not been able to control and position themselves by understanding the concept of Ibn Miskawaih's ethics and its implementation. The research method used is literature study, with a historical-critical approach. The findings of the study show that Ibn Miskawaih's ethical thinking is based on a view of the human soul. A place where a person first knows his soul by purifying it from liver disease, lies, envy and excessive love of the world. Liver disease and purification of the soul can be achieved by learning to always do alot of charity, stay away from greedy friends, live simply, learn about religion and introspection. One should also not have extreme advantages and extreme disadvantages, so it is mandatory to position in the middle. The implementation of self-meaning in the social environment can be done by cleansing the heart, then getting used to doing good so that later it becomes a habit that leads to divine health. The peak is being able to do good directly without thinking because it has become a habit to do good to anyone regardless of beliefs or tribes to countries. This research provides insight into the contribution of Ibn Miskawaih's thought in self-meaning in the social environment.
