Mahmudah morality is an important mechanism in human development. Man as a caliph is always exposed to morals mahmudah (praiseworthy) and morals mazmumah (reprehensible) throughout life on this earth. Thus, the Qur'an has used several methods in ensuring that human beings are developed with simple morals. Thus, this paper aims to look at the morals of the ignorant Arab society mentioned by the Qur'an and explain the methodology of the Qur'an in the formation of simple morals in developing their potential as superior human capital. To collect data, the author examines the contents of the Qur'an and collects verses related to the theme of morality. For the purpose of analysis, this study uses deductive methods to draw conclusions about the methodology of the Qur'an in applying simple morals in human beings. The results of the study found that the Qur'an uses four approaches in instilling good morals in human beings, namely the creation of role models, the narration of the stories of previous generations, parables and threats and encouragement. The four methodologies used by the Qur'an are able to ensure that good morals are always embedded in the self because it is an approach that is in accordance with human nature and instincts. Akhlak Mahmudah merupakan mekanisme yang penting dalam pembangunan insan. Manusia sebagai khalifah sentiasa terdedah kepada akhlak mahmudah (terpuji) dan akhlak mazmumah (tercela) sepanjang kehidupan di muka bumi ini. Justeru, al-Quran telah menggunakan beberapa metode dalam memastikan manusia dibangunkan dengan akhlak mahmudah. Justeru, kertas ini bertujuan untuk melihat akhlak masyarakat Arab jahiliah yang disebut oleh al-Quran dan menjelaskan metodologi al-Quran dalam pembentukan akhlak mahmudah dalam membangunkan potensi mereka sebagai modal insan yang unggul. Bagi mengumpul data, penulis meneliti kandungan kitab al-Quran dan mengumpulkan ayat-ayat yang berkaitan dengan tema akhlak. Bagi tujuan analisis, kajian ini menggunakan metode deduktif bagi membuat kesimpulan tentang metodologi al-Quran dalam menerapkan akhlak mahmudah dalam diri insan. Hasil kajian mendapati bahawa al-Quran menggunakan empat pendekatan dalam menanamkan akhlak mahmudah dalam diri manusia iaitu pewujudan suri teladan, penceritaan kisah-kisah generasi terdahulu, perumpamaan dan ancaman serta dorongan. Keempat-empat metodologi yang digunakan al-Quran ini mampu memastikan akhlak mahmudah sentiasa tertanam dalam diri kerana ia merupakan pendekatan yang sesuai dengan fitrah dan naluri manusia.

The insight that human beings are prone to deceive themselves is part of our everyday knowledge of human nature. Even so, if deceiving someone means to deliberately misrepresent something to him, it is difficult to understand how it is possible to deceive yourself. This paper tries to address this difficulty by means of a narrative approach. Self-deception is conceived as a change of the narrative context by means of which the same fact appears in a different light. On these grounds, depending on whether the self-deceiver adopts an ironic attitude to his self-deception or not, it is also possible to distinguish between a morally inexcusable self-deception and a morally indifferent one.

The result shows that Hinobe as an invader still maintains human nature, self-concept and freedom. The nature of human beings as individual beings is a feature of humanism in Shi no Hana and Tsumi no Hi. Despite being an invader, Hinobe realized his differences with other Japanese people regarding the ideals of peace. Freedom in Shi no Hana and Tsumi no Hi is divided into physical and psychological freedom, both of which are only Hinobe consciousness not realization. The self concept is divided into physical, attitude and intelligence.Humanisme dalam Shi No Hana dan Tsumi No Hi Karya Abe Tomoji (Kajian Orientalisme)Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan humanisme dalam Shi no Hana dan Tsumi no Hi karya Abe Tomoji.

Berdasarkan hasil penelitian diketahui bahwa Hinobe sebagai penjajah masih mempertahankan hakikat manusia, konsep diri dan kebebasan. Hakikat manusia sebagai makhluk individu menjadi keistimewaan humanisme dalam Shi no Hana dan Tsumi no Hi. Meskipun sebagai penjajah, Hinobe menyadari akan perbedaan dirinya dengan orang Jepang lain terkait cita-cita perdamaian. Kebebasan di dalam Shi no Hana dan Tsumi no Hi terbagi atas kebebasan fisik dan psikologis, yang keduanya hanya berupa kesadaran Hinobe bukan realisasi. Konsep diri terbagi menjadi penilaian fisik, sikap dan kecerdasan.

As human beings we need to relate to others; the exercise of our professional roles demands it. Relationships, however, bring about challenges to the self that require us to act with integrity. Different approaches to integrity configure different ways of cognitively and intuitively feeling and acting in our relationships. Moreover, different ways of understanding human development are related to different ways of understanding integrity in the self. While not an exhaustive account, we sketch out three models of human development that capture much of this diversity, the so-called autonomous self (AS), processual self (PS) and inter-processual self (IPS). Each has a particular way of defining integrity in the self and understanding action. The AS and PS models understand integrity as internal coherence thanks primarily to rational exercise, with priority given to the content of action, while relations are seen as resources. AS and PS focus on cognition through rational or emotional and external mastery of our relationships and our relationship to our own integrity (self-integrity is also handled as a cognitive exercise mirroring how external relations are understood). The IPS understands integrity as the dynamic to growth and cognition itself as a relational act that, when it arises from within, affects all dimensions of the person and hence how to ethically relate to others and ourselves. Different kinds of integrity are also related to practical wisdom. Based on this, we explore consequences of these different ways of understanding self-integration and relationships for approaching management and leadership roles to open up reflection in the field of management on leadership, relational integrity and personal development.

This chapter provides an overview of Kant’s conception of the animality (or Tierheit) of human beings. Though human animality is treated in a wide range of Kant’s writings, it has received relatively little attention from scholars, perhaps because Kant wrote no text principally devoted to the subject. With the aim of establishing its systematic unity, I track the status and role of animality across three distinct but interrelated domains of Kant’s theory of human nature—his account of animality as one of three basically good original human predispositions in Religion Within the Boundaries of Mere Reason, his account of animality as the target of discipline in the pedagogy lectures, and his account of animality as simultaneously a driver of and hindrance to the progress of history in ‘Idea for a Universal History With a Cosmopolitan Aim’. I argue that these accounts, taken together and in light of the teleological vision of human development that connects them, manifest a distinctively Kantian vision of the human as an actively rational, but at the same time ineliminably animal, being. Far from denying that humans are animals or seeking to repress human animality wholesale, Kant in fact offers a nuanced and robust, though still problematic, defence of the necessity, innocence, and originality of the human’s animal side.

It has often been said that no one knows what psychoanalysis is—whether it is a science, one of the humanities, a particular type of therapeutic art, a religion or a form of semantic theory (Ryecroft 1968). There are those who postpone judgement, waiting to see whether psychoanalytical theory is refuted or accepted. This raises the question of the nature of theories developed to explain human nature, as opposed to those designed for the purpose of explaining physical nature. Failure to distinguish between them leads to much confusion. Consideration of human nature leads to what is exclusively and most significantly human—human experience, so-called psychic reality, a phenomenon unique to human beings, but shared to a certain extent by them, and capable of communication between them. Physical nature, both organic and inorganic, is of a different order of abstraction. Psychic reality, which cannot be directly perceived through the physical senses, is only directly experienced in the self, but can be communicated by language—and can be inferred from observation. Physical reality can only be perceived through the physical senses.

Education is a conscious effort made by humans to humanize humans. This is done in order to empower all potential so that human beings are in accordance with their nature. Human nature, nowadays, is increasingly marginalized by worldly forms. At its culmination point, humans no longer understood their nature as Caliph fi al-ardh which coincided with the purpose of the creation of jinn and humans in order to serve the Creator. In line with efforts to humanize humans who have humanized education harmonized with human needs in their time. It is this change in human needs that leads people to keep up to date, which is in line with the times. Because, the age that continues to develop in accordance with rapid civilization can moralize specific needs. Specifications of human needs for material. The higher human intelligence, the more curiosity and the more problems and challenges in life. To answer these problems and challenges, various branches of science were born. Even so, essentially, Islamic Education is the foremost part that must be developed to the root of life's problems. Because, humans who are naturally created by God must remain in the order of life guided by Islam.

Leaders play a very important role in an organization. It does not matter if the organization is small or big. In Islam, leadership is a matter of concern. This can be seen extensively in the Quran and al-Hadith. Islamic scholars take this issue seriously and extensively, as well as its relation to the creation of man as a caliph on this earth. Due to the importance of this leadership, this study aims to see the role played by its special leaders in management affairs as well as the development of human capital in the context of Islam. The title has also been chosen with the aim of looking at how far Islam plays its role in management as well as human capital development. This paper is produced through document analysis in the form of documentation review, the evaluation of scholars on the concept of the leader itself, and the good leadership effect on human capital development and management. It was found that the best management is management that does not ignore spiritual disclosure in managing and administering an organization. The development of human capital based on al Quran and Sunnah is the best model in producing a person who is both spiritually and physically brilliant.

<p><em>In this era we, human beings upon earth, revolve around religious war, be it open or covert, in which every sect claims to own God.

This chapter moves into the political and economic aspects of human nature. Given scarcity and interdependence, what sense has Judaism made of the material well-being necessary for human flourishing? What are Jewish attitudes toward prosperity, market relations, labor, and leisure? What has Judaism had to say about the political dimensions of human nature? If all humans are made in the image of God, what does that original equality imply for political order, authority, and justice? In what kinds of systems can human beings best flourish? It argues that Jewish tradition shows that we act in conformity with our nature when we elevate, improve, and sanctify it. As co-creators of the world with God, we are not just the sport of our biochemistry. We are persons who can select and choose among the traits that comprise our very own natures, cultivating some and weeding out others.
