This research explores the development of the information credibility construct model based on credibility items from the Islamic perspective driven by the verses of Al-Quran and Al-Hadith. Research was conducted on the Signs of Al-Quran, Hadith and prior sacred scholars writing followed by face-to-face interviews with a group of experts consisting of figures and scholars in the field of Ushuluddin, Al-Quran and Hadith.Credibility Items acquired were further verified by another group of Islamic scholars in the three related areas. All 99 statements which were verified formed four
multidimensional constructs namely the presenter (truthfully, tsiqah, a good method, faith, wisdom, responsibility, courtesy and true), chain of information sources (connected, can be checked with the original source, recognized chains, and other reference source), Information (original, changes to the good, and harmless), and receiver (tsiqah, thoughtful, action to be taken, and the impact of action).Empirical testing was then conducted on towards 540 respondents to determine the level of achievement of each item in the current situation.Structural equation modeling analysis used to determine the credibility of the measurement model corresponds to the information in the data.The results showed that all multidimensional constructs formed have achieved good matching accuracy, high reliability and meet its convergent validity, discriminant validity and nomological validity.In conclusion, the development of
information credibility constructs based on Islamic perspective and was strengthened by
empirical testing has opened up a new dimension to the use of a more accurate
credibility measurement construct for Muslims. These constructs can be adapted to other
information credibility by Muslims from various media today
