Abstract

The narrative of Fathul Makkah (The Conquest of Mecca) in Islamic education is often reduced to a military victory, overshadowing its profound pedagogical dimensions regarding peace and character building. This study aims to deconstruct and analyze the educational values embedded in the narrative of Fathul Makkah within the primer text Khulāṣah Nūr al-Yaqīn, exploring how it articulates the integration of theology, ethics, and social justice. Employing a qualitative library research method with a hermeneutical approach, this study interprets the primary text through the lens of classical Turats, including Kitāb at-Tauḥīd, Iḥyā’ ‘ulūm ad-dīn, Al-aḥkām as-sulṭāniyyah, and Madārij as-sālikīn, while engaging with contemporary discourses on prophetic leadership. The results indicate that the event encompasses four fundamental prophetic values: (1) Tawhidic value manifested in the purification of symbols and absolute reliance on Divine Will; (2) Ethical value demonstrated through the Prophet’s extreme humility and the transformation of violence into mercy (Marhamah); (3) Social value characterized by general amnesty (Al-Afwu Al-Am) and the reconstruction of tribal fanaticism into universal brotherhood; and (4) Spiritual value exhibited in the annihilation of the ego (Fana) and gratitude through Salat al-Fath. The study concludes that Khulāṣah Nūr al-Yaqīn presents Fathul Makkah not merely as a territorial conquest, but as a holistic curriculum for Prophetic Leadership that fosters integrity, social cohesion, and spiritual transcendence.
