Abstract

Educators are role models for their students. In the teaching and learning process, educators not only have the responsibility to transfer knowledge to their students, but also must uphold ethics and morality in educating. Imam Al Ghazali (450 H/1058 AD - 505 H/1111 AD), a great scholar who lived centuries ago, has formulated various ethical principles for educators so that the knowledge taught remains blessed and noble. His works are widespread and have become the primary reference in understanding ethical values for educators. This qualitative research used a library research design to review various journals and classical books by Imam Al Ghazali. The researcher analyzed relevant literature without having to conduct field research. According to Imam Al Ghazali, this research aims to describe the concept of the code of ethics for educators. The results revealed several main principles that must be possessed by an educator, such as having compassion for students, having praiseworthy traits, being a good example, and being firm in educating.
