This research aims to determine the extent to which teenagers distinguish true news from fake news and how these fake news affect adolescents’cognition. A lot of hoax information has sprung up on social media, especially during the 2019 Indonesian presidential election. The ability to check on the information spread in online media is influenced by each individual’s cognitive abilities. A person’s cognitive ability is to think rationally, including aspects of knowledge, understanding, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. This study used an explanative survey method with a quantitative positivistic paradigm. The results showed that the most influencing X variable to the Y variable was the Satire variable, which is positive and unidirectional. The Hoax variable has the most influence on cognitive abilities, even though the value is negative and not unidirectional. This means, the lower the understanding of Hoax, the higher the level of cognitive abilities.

People have desires to search for the truth and to have broad knowledge. The internet, which was once considered as one of the media to find accurate sources of information, now has become a source of less accurate news. So there needs to be a filter in consuming news from the internet. The purpose of this study is to look at the spread of hoax news because of the lack of awareness.

This study examines Tājuddīn al-Subkī’s concept of ḥifẓ al-‘irḍ, as an essential part of maqāṣīd al-sharī’a, and uses it to analyze hoax news. To limit this study, the authors focuse on two crucial aspects. First, what is the concept of ḥifẓ al-‘irḍ according to Imam Tājuddīn al-Subkī? Second, how to contextualize ḥifẓ al-‘irḍ in the contemporary time to approach hoax news? This library research uses content and critical analysis to Tājuddīn al-Subkī’s thoughts, which are contained the works written by himself and those written by scholars after him. This study argues that al-Subkī initiated the concept of ḥifẓ al-‘irḍ (maintaining honor). As an essential part of maqāṣīd al-sharī’a, ḥifẓ al-‘irḍ must be held in addition to five other main purposes, namely maintaining the soul, religion, reason, lineage, and treasure. According to al-Subkī, defending honor can be equated with keeping the lineage because the two have a close and robust relationship, especially when discussing adultery and qadhf/قذف (accusing people of committing adultery). The spread of hoaxes today is like qadhf in Islamic law. The hoax spread must be stopped because it causes damage to the life of society, nation, and state. Preventing injury and realizing benefits are at the core of maqāṣīd al-sharī’a.

The phenomenon of hoaxes as fake news is mostly constructed through social media in this era. The sites that produce and spread hoaxes or fake news are relatively high in several big cities in Indonesia, especially Bandung, the capital of West Java. A large number of false reports have made the public uneasy. The hoax news is not only consumed by the general public but also among universities. This study aims to determine how the hoax model spread among Muslim students in Islamic universities in Bandung. This research uses a qualitative approach. The data was collected by applying in-depth interviews and documentation studies to explore the focus of the research. This study found several facts, namely: first, most of the students often received hoaxes, even some students had also been hoax makers and spreaders. Second, the spread of hoaxes is carried out through social media in line with information technology development. Third, there are 3 (three) patterns of hoax spreading among Islamic university students, namely (1) the pattern of cyclization or distribution carried out within certain groups; (2) general public distribution patterns; (3) a break pattern, in which the dissemination of information stops to the authorities. Besides, the campus needs support in strengthening digital literacy practices and comprehensive verification (tabayun) efforts for students, and serious handling of the government.

Abstract. The post-truth phenomenon in the form of false news and utterances of hate actually marks an awareness that is lured to oneself (closed, rejects intersubjectivity) which causes the emergence of egological thinking. Ricoeur carries out “hermeneutics of suspicion,” as a hermeneutical method, which aims to demystify arrogant subjects, which are lived out by distrust and skepticism and give birth to post-truths. The purpose of this study is to show that the perspective of education according to Ricoeur means the return of consciousness. Consciousness means unity between words and actions. It is not enough that our thoughts are good without being directly proportional to good actions. For the task of education, the unity of both is the opposite of post-truth. Abstrak. Fenomena post-truth berupa berita bohong dan ujaran kebencian sesungguhnya menandai kesadaran yang terpikat pada diri sendiri (tertutup, menolak intersubjektif) yang menyebabkan munculnya cari berpikir egologis. Ricoeur mengusung “hermeneutik kecurigaan” (hermeneutics of suspicion), sebagai metode hermeneutis, yang bertujuan melakukan demistifikasi atas subjek yang pongah, yang dihidupi oleh ketidakpercayaan dan skeptisisme serta melahirkan post-truth. Tujuan penelitian ini ingin memperlihatkan bahwa perspektif pendidikan menurut Ricoeur berarti kembalinya kesadaran. Kesadaran berarti satunya kata dan tindakan. Tidak cukup pikiran kita baik, tanpa berbanding lurus dengan tindakan yang baik. Bagi tugas pendidikan, maka kesatuan keduanya adalah lawan tanding bagi post-truth.
