THE CONCEPT OF WEALTH AND HAPPINESS IN SENECA'S ISLAMIC PHILOSOPHY PERSPECTIVE
Keywords:
Wealth, Happiness, Islamic PhilosophyAbstract
This study aims to explore Seneca's and Islamic philosophy's views on wealth and happiness. It uses a qualitative literature review method by collecting data from various literature on Seneca's works and Islamic philosophy. It uses philosophical, historical, and epistemological approaches, as well as data processing and analysis techniques, namely induction and deduction. The results of the study show that Seneca emphasizes that wealth is not the source of true happiness, but rather a means to achieve virtue and a good life. This study finds that both emphasize that happiness does not depend on material wealth. Seneca argues that true happiness comes from desire and self-control, while Islamic thought emphasizes tawakal (trust in God) and contentment with what one has. Although there are similarities in moral and ethical values, differences arise in metaphysical and spiritual approaches, where Islam emphasizes a relationship with God as the source of happiness.
