IMPLEMENTASI NILAI-NILAI PENDIDIKAN AGAMA ISLAM DALAM MEMBENTUK AKHLAKUL KARIMAH PESERTA DIDIK DI SMP IT DAAT EL QUR’AN PAKIS MALANG

Abstract

In this era of globalization and technological advancement, the moral decline among youth and the weakening of religious awareness pose major challenges to the field of education. This highlights the vital role of educational institutions in instilling noble character values through Islamic Religious Education. SMP IT Daar El Qur’an Pakis Malang places a strong emphasis on implementing Islamic values to shape students with an Islamic character. This study aims to examine the implementation of Islamic Religious Education values in developing akhlaqul karimah (noble character), identify the values instilled, and evaluate their impact on students' character formation. A descriptive qualitative approach was used, with data collected through interviews, direct observation, and documentation. The findings indicate that Islamic values are applied in a structured manner through classroom instruction, daily routines, teacher role models, and religious activities. Core values implemented include Islamic etiquette (adab), honesty (shidiq), responsibility (amanah), discipline, perseverance (istiqomah), humility (tawadhu’), mutual respect, and cooperation (ta’awun). The positive outcomes are reflected in improved student discipline, heightened worship awareness, and the growth of social and moral consciousness. In conclusion, the process of building akhlaqul karimah is carried out integratively through the synergy of learning, habituation, exemplary behavior, and continuous spiritual development.
