Quantitative analysis shows significant effects of social media on Islamic ethics comprehension among students, suggesting engaging content is vital.
Social media has become an effective communication medium for disseminating information, including Islamic preaching (dakwah). The Instagram account @hanan_attaki is widely recognized for attracting young audiences through a contemporary, personal, and engaging approach. This study aims to analyze the influence of the account on the understanding of Islamic teachings, particularly in the aspect of akhlak (ethics), among students of the Faculty of Communication Sciences at Universitas Islam Bandung. This research employed a quantitative method with a survey technique using questionnaires distributed to 108 respondents selected through simple random sampling. Data were analyzed using validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, and multiple linear regression with IBM SPSS Statistics 25. The findings indicate that simultaneously, all four motives in the Uses and Gratifications theory (information, personal identity, social integration, and entertainment) significantly influence students’ ethical understanding, with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.866. Partially, only the information and entertainment motives had a significant effect, with entertainment being the dominant factor. These results highlight that informative and engaging religious content delivered through social media plays a strategic role in strengthening the internalization of Islamic values among students in the digital era.
