Qualitative case study analyzes the alignment of digital media practices with Islamic marketing ethics, highlighting educational objectives and public welfare.
The development of digital media has transformed patterns of representation and consumption of history and culture through video-based platforms such as YouTube. This study analyzes the production practices of Acehnese historical and cultural content on the Nata the Kongkow YouTube channel by employing Islamic marketing ethics as the primary evaluative framework. Using a qualitative approach with a case study design, the research draws on content analysis and interviews as a means of confirming analytical findings. The results indicate that content production involves ongoing negotiation between educational objectives, limitations of historical sources, and audience engagement demands. From the perspective of Islamic marketing ethics, content production practices have generally fulfilled the principles of sidq, amanah, bayān, and orientation toward public welfare, although the degree of fulfillment varies according to content objectives and available source constraints. These findings demonstrate that Islamic marketing ethics can function as a reflective framework for assessing digital historical and cultural content practices and provide practical implications for content creators and cultural institutions.
