This study aims to examine prophetic reconciliation as a socio-religious ethical framework for conflict resolution in contemporary Islam. The data are drawn from Qur’anic verses—particularly Surah al-Ḥujurāt (49:9–10), al-Nisā’ (4:114), and al-Anfāl (8:1)—as well as relevant Prophetic traditions (hadiths). Using a qualitative thematic analysis (maudhū‘ī), the study analyzes these texts in light of their social-historical contexts to uncover the operational model of ishlāḥ (reconciliation) in the prophetic tradition. The findings reveal that the Qur’an positions reconciliation as a collective social obligation aimed at maintaining communal cohesion, while the Prophet Muhammad’s practices demonstrate systematic and contextual patterns of mediation and relational restoration. This study concludes that prophetic reconciliation offers an adaptive public ethic for addressing modern religious conflicts and contributes to Qur’anic and Hadith studies by framing reconciliation as a transformative paradigm of Islamic social ethics.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji rekonsiliasi profetik sebagai kerangka etika sosial-keagamaan dalam penyelesaian konflik pada konteks Islam kontemporer. Data penelitian bersumber dari ayat-ayat Al-Qur’an—terutama Surah al-Ḥujurāt (49:9–10), al-Nisā’ (4:114), dan al-Anfāl (8:1)—serta hadis-hadis Nabi yang relevan. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dan metode analisis tematik (maudhū‘ī), penelitian ini menganalisis teks-teks tersebut berdasarkan konteks sosial-historisnya untuk menemukan model operasional ishlāḥ (rekonsiliasi) dalam tradisi kenabian. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Al-Qur’an menempatkan rekonsiliasi sebagai kewajiban sosial kolektif untuk menjaga kohesi umat, sedangkan praktik Nabi Muhammad menunjukkan pola mediasi dan pemulihan relasi yang sistematis dan kontekstual. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa rekonsiliasi profetik merupakan etika publik Islam yang adaptif dalam menghadapi konflik keagamaan modern serta memberikan kontribusi konseptual bagi pengembangan kajian Qur’an dan Hadis.
