<![CDATA[Islamic Religious Education (PAI) plays a crucial role in shaping students’ moral character at the elementary school level as the initial phase of character development; however, its implementation in public elementary schools still faces challenges in consistently integrating moral values into the learning process. This study aims to describe the implementation of PAI instruction, analyze the outcomes of its implementation, and identify the supporting and inhibiting factors in the development of students’ moral character at SDN Karang Asih 08 Cikarang Utara, Bekasi Regency. The study employs a qualitative approach using the case study method. Data were collected through non-participatory observation, structured interviews, and documentation, then analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and verification. The results indicate that PAI instruction has been conducted in accordance with the curriculum and lesson plans, utilizing various teaching methods. This implementation has positively contributed to students’ religiosity and compliance with school rules, although the internalization of moral values has not yet been fully and consistently reflected in their daily behavior. This study concludes that PAI instruction plays a crucial role in shaping students’ moral character; however, it requires strengthening the integration of moral values as well as sustained synergy among schools, families, and the community.
