PROTECTION OF CHILDREN'S RIGHTS IN ISLAMIC EDUCATION: A LITERATURE STUDY AND LEGAL REVIEW OF CASES OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE BY TEACHERS
Keywords:
Child Rights, Sexual Violence, Islamic EducationAbstract
Child rights protection in Islamic education is a crucial issue to ensure that children receive education that is safe, just, and dignified. However, in practice, cases of sexual violence by teachers in Islamic educational institutions still occur, threatening the safety and well-being of students. This study aims to examine the concept of child rights protection in Islamic education and analyze the legal application in cases of sexual violence committed by teachers. The method used in this research is a qualitative approach with literature review and legal analysis, collecting data through literature, legal documents, as well as studies on fiqh and positive law related to child protection. The findings indicate that although Islamic education emphasizes child rights protection, its implementation in Islamic educational institutions still faces various obstacles, such as weak supervision and teacher training, as well as social stigma hindering violence reporting. Better preventive measures, increased legal awareness, and inter-agency synergy are needed to create a safe and protected educational environment for children. In conclusion, child rights protection in Islamic education must be a top priority, involving all parties to create an education system that is not only intellectually enriching but also safe and compassionate
