Bullying is a symptom that must be avoided and addressed to prevent serious physical injuries that could lead to death. In addition, it could negatively affect the mental or emotional wellbeing of victims. Despite a variety of psychological and counseling methods to deal with these symptoms, cases of bullying have increased over time, especially in global education. In view of this background, this study is conducted with the aims to elaborate the bullying concepts that threaten the lives of today’s society, and to review the Islamic Tarbiyah system for bullying symptoms. The findings of this study revealed that a Tarbiyah system based on education is the most effective way to resolve bullying issues, problems, and symptoms. This is due to the fact that the Tarbiyah Islamiyah approach gives special focus to the provision of care, education, and upbringing based on the divine revelation sources of al-Quran al-Karim and the Sunnah of Rasulullah SAW. According to Ibn Qayyim al Jauzi's ideas, which were written and explained by Hasan bin Ali Hasan al-Hijazy in his work Manhaj Tarbiyah Ibn Qayyim, there are nine (9) types of Tarbiyah namely: (i) Tarbiyah Imaniyah (Educating Faith), (ii) Tarbiyah Ruhiyah (Spiritual Education), (iii) Tarbiyah Fikriyah (Educating the Mind), (iv) Tarbiyah ‘Athifiyah (Educating of Feelings), (v) Tarbiyah Khuluqiyah (Educating Morals), (vi) Tarbiyah Ijtimaiyah (Educating the Community), (vii) Tarbiyah Iradiyah (Educating Ideals), (viii) Tarbiyah Badaniyah (Physical Education), and (xi) Tarbiyah Jinsiyah (Sex Education). This study further recommends that in order to reduce bullying symptoms and create a more stable, harmonious and safer living environment, the tarbiyah system should be used in Islam as one of its methods of education.
