In this thesis, the researcher analyzes body shaming in Jemima J by examining the definition of body shaming, analyzing the effect of body shaming experienced by the characters in the novel, and observe body shaming from Islam’s point of view. This study aims to discover the case of body shaming in Jemima J, the results of those actions to the characters, and the Islamic evaluation of body shaming. This research applied a descriptive qualitative approach to obtain a better understanding of the novel. Gilbert & Miles’ knowledge of body shaming is implemented to answer how body-shaming is depicted in the story. The effects of body-shaming on Jemima were discovered using the psychological impact of the characters who experienced body shaming, and how body-shaming is seen from the Islamic Perspective is explained based on Al-Qur’an and hadith. The study results show that body shame is done in non-verbal form and verbal form. The non-verbal forms are discrimination, dissatisfaction with other people’s bodies, and laughing at other people’s body shapes. At the same time, the verbal form is calling someone by unpleasant nickname. The effects of getting these treatments are insecure, anxious, they become hardly express themselves to others, and bad eating habits such as binge-eating—Islam saw this behavior as unpleasant that could lead the addresser into disrepute. It concludes that body-shaming is not proper in the perspective of humanity or Islamic perspective because it leads to harmful effects to the victim and the addresser.
