INTRODUCTION
A. Background
Basically, human beings as living beings think and always try to know everything,
do not want to take things for granted and always want to know what is behind what is
seen and observed. Everything he sees, experiences, and the symptoms that occur in his
environment are always questioned and analyzed or studied. There are three things that
encourage people to philosophize, namely astonishment, doubt, and awareness of
limitations. Philosophizing is often encouraged to know what one already knows and
what one does not yet know, philosophizing means being humbled that not everything
will ever be known in seemingly infinite infinity. Philosophy has a very important role in
human life. At least there are three main roles that are owned, namely as breakers,
liberators, and guides. Education is an effort to develop the human potentials of
students, both the physical potential of creation potential, taste, and taste, so that the
potential becomes real and can function in the course of their lives. While education is
one of the fields of science, as well as other sciences. Education is born from its parent,
namely philosophy, in line with the process of developing science, educational science
also slowly detaches from its mother. In the beginning education was in concert with
philosophy, for philosophy could never free itself with the formation of man. Philosophy
was created by man for the purpose of understanding human standing, human
development, and the improvement of human life. The basis of education is the ideal of
universal humanity. Education is aimed at preparing the person in balance, unity.
organic, harmonious, dynamic. in order to achieve the life goals of humanity. The
philosophy of education is a philosophy used in the study of educational issues. In
everyday life we cannot be separated from the rules of life that apply. Such rules are
often called norms. Thus norms are rules or rules that are agreed upon and provide
guidelines for the behavior of their members in realizing something that is considered
good and desirable. In short, norms are rules or guidelines for behavior containing
orders, recommendations and prohibitions.

B. DEFINITION OF ETHICS
In the Great dictionary Indonesian that ethics is the science of what is
good and what is bad and about moral rights and obligations (morals). In
relation to this ethic, Bartens explained that ethics comes from the ancient
Greek language, namely ethos in the singular which means customs, customs,
good morals.
James J. Spillane SJ revealed that ethics or ethies pay attention to or
consider human behavior in moral decision-making . Ethics directs or links the
use of individual reason to objectivity or determines one's "truth" or "error"
and behavior towards others.
Suhrawardi K. Lubis stated that in the language of the Islamic religion,
the term ethics is part of morals. It is said to be part of morals, because morals
are not just about human behavior that is outwardly deeds only, but include
more things broad, that is, covering the fields of akidah, worship, and sharia.
According to Austin Fagothey, ethics is the study of the human will, that
is, the will that deals with decisions about right and wrong in the form of human
deeds. The ethics of seeking and trying to show the values of life that are
E. PROFESSIONAL ETHICS
For a professional who is engaged in a certain field, especially in the legal
professional ethics course, this professional ethics is poured into a form called a
code of ethics. The code of ethics is a system of norms, values, and written
professional rules that expressly state what is right and good and what is not
right and not good for the professional. The code of ethics states what deeds are
right or wrong, what deeds should be done, and what should be avoided.
Professional ethics becomes very important to learn, regardless that even
outside of professional ethics there are already moral teachings available. The
presence of ethics, including professional ethics is still necessary. Therefore the
course of the legal profession is something very dynamic, then it is clear that in
practice new things will be found. The ethics of the legal profession, with all the
basics of rationality behindit will greatly help pave the way for solutions that are
acceptable to all parties from various circles.
The first role of professional ethics is as a moral "compass" or signpost for
the professional based on his ethical values, conscience, freedoms of
responsibility, honesty, trust, rights in the form of servants to the client. second
as a guarantor of public trust in the services provided by the professional.
2. LEGAL NORMS
A. Definition of Legal Norms
Legal norms in general are provisions that bind the citizens of the group
in society. These legal norms are then used as guidelines, orders, and behaviors
that are in accordance with the rules or rules used as a benchmark for judgment
or comparison. Legal norms can also be interpreted as a set of rules aimed at
members of society. Legal norms contain provisions, orders, obligations, and
prohibitions, so that in social life can be created an order and justice of social
rules made by certain institutions, one of which is society.
Legal norms expressly regulate and can prohibit even forcing people to
be able to behave something with the wishes of those rule-makers. Therefore,
when there is a violation of legal norms, it will be sentenced to a fine and even
corporal punishment. Legal norms are contained in the 1945 Constitution Article
1 paragraph (3). In the rules, legal norms are considered as a necessity created in
order to regulate citizens in order to be able to exercise their rights and
obligations. In the 1945 Constitution Article 1 paragraph (3) reads "law is a
necessity in the life of the nation and state because the existence of law can
create order and justice in society."
B. The Nature of Legal Norms
According to Purnadi Purbacaraka and Soerjono Soekanto, legal norms have
properties including (Purbacaraka & Soekanto, 1982, p. 49):
a. Imperative, that is, a command that must a priori be obeyed in the form of
both orders and prohibitions;
b. Facultative, that is, it is not a priori binding or obligatory to obey.
In the book Encyclopedia of Pancasila and Citizenship Education: Norms,
Laws, and Regulations by Yana Suryana, et al. legal norms are:
1. Regulating: Legal norms contain rules that are used to regulate human
behavior in everyday life.
2. Coercive: Legal norms contain rules about orders and prohibitions of a
coercive nature that everyone must abide by.
3. Binding: Legal norms have rules that are binding and apply to everyone.
Everyone has an equal standing in the eyes of the law, therefore everyone
must abide by the applicable legal norms and binding legal norms for
everyone regardless of position or background.
3. RELIGIOUS NORMS
A. Definition of Religious Norms
Religious norms are rules or rules that serve as instructions, guidelines, and
boundaries for humans to live their lives. The rules, instructions, and
recommendations contained in these religious norms come directly from the
almighty god, so that their nature is certain and unquestionable for those who
believe in them. Generally, these religious norms contain commands from god
directly to approach good things and stay away from His prohibitions. One of the
goals of religion is to guide its followers to the right path so that they can live a
better and more beneficial life for both themselves and others. Religious norms
are guidelines and guidelines for achieving these goals.
B. Sources of Religious Norms
Religious norms are one type of norm that can strengthen other norms.
Because religious norms come from God Almighty, so the existence of norms
can influence a person in behavior in his life. For every religious person, its
creator or God is something that must come first. Slightly different from other
norms, this religious norm is derived directly from god's commandments either
delivered directly or through other intermediaries. Generally, these religious
norms have clear and well-recorded sources such as scriptures, holy inscriptions
with inscriptions of commands, or other things that are clearly visible and
readable. However, it is not uncommon for this norm to be oral and hereditary,
for example from hadith and others that have not been recorded. Due to its
hereditary nature, it is very important to know the sanad or history and the
decline of the norm so as not to cause misguidance. In addition, as we know,
Indonesia is a country that has a fairly high religious diversity with 6 main
recognized religions. Therefore, the source of this norm also varies depending
on the respective religion.
4. MORAL STANDARD
A. THE NOTION OF MORAL NORMALITY
Moral norms are rules by which society decides what appears good, correct, or
adequate. They can be explicit or not and are defined by referring to cultural
traditions and traditional values, not on written codes or established by consensus, as
in the case of legal norms. Thus, moral norms come from society and are studied by
each subject. They are carried out by each individual at will, being able in most cases
to choose not to do so. This, contrary to other types of norms, does not carry
effective sanctions, such as remorse or, depending on the norm, rejection by society.
However, in most cases moral norms coincide with legal norms, and their violation
can be both immorality and evil. The morality of society is a broad subject to study,
and it responds to the confluence of various historical and cultural factors, such as
religion, social development, etc. That is why what is considered moral at some time
and society may be immoral at other times, and that is why certain changes in the
idea of morality occur from generation to generation.
