Tabayyun Digital QS. Al-Hujurat Ayat 6 sebagai Etika Komunikasi Islam di Era Hoaks

Abstrak

This article revisits QS. Al-Hujurat (49): 6 as a Qur'anic ground for digital tabayyun in Islamic communication. The problem discussed is not only the spread of hoaxes, but also the speed with which religious messages are shared before their sources, context, and social effects are examined. The study uses a qualitative library approach by reading Qur'anic communication verses thematically and relating them to verification, framing, audience awareness, gatekeeping, and digital literacy. The analysis finds that tabayyun is a moral pause before speaking, posting, forwarding, or framing religious content. Qaulan sadidan emphasizes accurate and honest wording, qaulan baligha calls for audience-sensitive expression, and da'wah bi al-hikmah guides the circulation of messages with wisdom. The article proposes three ethical steps for Islamic communication in digital spaces: verification, formulation, and dissemination. Through these steps, Qur'anic tafsir can speak to contemporary communication practice, so religious messages remain truthful, responsible, and socially calming amid the pressure of viral culture.
