<![CDATA[This study investigates the role of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) in shaping the moral development of fourth-grade students at SDN 4 Cilangkap. The research stems from growing concerns regarding moral degradation among elementary students, which manifests through impolite behavior, dishonesty, and a lack of respect towards teachers and peers. The study aims to (1) describe the implementation of PAI in the classroom, (2) analyze the moral behavior of students, and (3) identify supporting and inhibiting factors in moral development. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that while the school has implemented regular religious activities such as communal prayers, Quran recitation, and Islamic values integration in daily routines, students still face challenges in internalizing moral values. Influencing factors include the role of parents, teachers, school culture, and external influences such as media and peer interaction. The study concludes that although the PAI curriculum plays a vital role in promoting moral awareness, its effectiveness is contingent upon consistency in application and collaboration between school and home environments. Therefore, for Islamic education to effectively shape student morality, it must be reinforced through a holistic approach involving structured learning, character-based practices, and active moral modeling by educators and parents alike.]]>
