Abstract
Despite the expansion of studies on privacy in legal and ethical literature, the concept of "bodily privacy" in a Qur'anic framework and with an analytical approach has remained abandoned. Most of the researches have either addressed the jurisprudential and legal aspects of this concept or defined it only in the biological and material field, while the Holy Quran has a deeper, multi-layered and valuable approach to the human body.
Based on this, the main problem of the current research is to explain the concept of bodily privacy from the perspective of the Qur'an, focusing on its triple foundations. The research method is descriptive-analytical, and the data have been collected and analyzed by referring to interpretive, narrative sources and Islamic studies in ethics. The findings show that bodily privacy in the Qur'an can be analyzed based on three categories of bases: (1) Ontological foundations that emphasize God's absolute ownership of the body and man's conditional agency in possessing it; (2) anthropological foundations that introduce the body as a container for the emergence of human reason, will and dignity; (3) Ethical foundations that support concepts such as chastity, respect for harm, individual responsibility and behavioral justice. In sum, bodily privacy in the Qur'anic discourse is considered not just an individual right, but a part of the system of human slavery and the moral structure of Islamic society.
