Penggunaan Tiktok Dan Kualitas Perilaku Religius Remaja: Studi Kualitatif Di Desa Sukadana Ilir, Kecamatan Bunga Mayang, Lampung Utara
This study analyzes the use of the TikTok application and its influence on the religious behavior of Muslim youth in Sukadana Ilir Village, Bunga Mayang District, North Lampung. The focus of the study was directed at late adolescents aged 17–21 who use TikTok as part of their daily routine. The research approach was qualitative with a case study, using in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation of five informants. The results showed that TikTok is used primarily for entertainment to relieve boredom, follow trends, and obtain light information. Although there is da'wah content and spiritual motivation that has the potential to have a positive impact, the dominant findings indicate a stronger negative impact, particularly in terms of decreased religious discipline, neglect of prayer obligations, and reduced socio-religious involvement. Adolescents are more interested in entertainment content than da'wah content, so religious understanding is not a priority. This study confirms that TikTok has a significant influence on adolescents' religious behavior, especially when there is a lack of self-control and family guidance. These findings are expected to form the basis for digital literacy education for parents, educators, and educational institutions to guide the use of TikTok in a healthier and more religiously valuable way.
