Internalization of religious character is an important aspect in the educational process which aims to instill religious values in students.

Data collection techniques were carried out through interviews, non-participant observation and documentation. The subjects in this research included Islamic religious education teachers, class VA students. Data analysis was carried out through the stages of data condensation, data presentation and drawing conclusions. The results of the research show that: (1) The form of co-curricular implementation of Islamic religious education in internalizing students' religious character which is carried out in class VA students at SDN 01 Mentawa Sambas includes four main activities, namely, congregational duha prayers, reading the Koran, salawat and daily prayers.

Students perform Duha prayers in congregation with the guidance of the teacher, starting from reading intentions, praying iftitah, to greetings. Second, the implementation of reading the Qur'an, starting with preparing a mushaf, reading ta'awudz, and reading the Qur'an together after the teacher has read it. If there are errors in reciting the tajwid, long or short, they will be corrected by the teacher. Third, implementing the salawat, where the teacher reads the salawat first, then the students read it together.

(3) The religious character of class VA students after carrying out Islamic religious education co-curricular activities at SDN 01 Mentawa Sambas, shows a positive improvement.

In addition, students are now able to recite daily salawat and prayers well and fluently.]]>
