<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the implementation of Islamic education management through the 3S Program (A Handful of Rice, an Egg, and a Thousand Rupiah) in strengthening the social care character of students at SMP Negeri 02 Sungai Panjang. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive type of research. The research informants consist of school principals, teachers, education staff, and students involved in the implementation of the 3S Program. Data was collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña model which included data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The results of the study showed that the implementation of Islamic education management in the 3S Program was carried out through four management functions, namely planning (takhthith), organizing (tanzhim), implementation (tawjih), and supervision (riqabah). Program planning was carried out through the determination of objectives, objectives, and activity schedules. Organizing involves school principals, teachers, education staff, and students in a clear division of tasks. The implementation of the program is carried out routinely through activities to collect and distribute assistance to students in need, while supervision is carried out through periodic monitoring and evaluation. The implementation of the 3S Program has positive implications for strengthening the social care character of students which is shown through increasing empathy, sharing habits, responsibility, and the spirit of mutual cooperation. This study recommends that the 3S Program continue to be developed as a model of character strengthening based on Islamic education management that can be applied to other educational units.]]>
