Abstract

This study aims to provide a deeper understanding of the contribution of Islamic Religious Education  in creating a more positive social environment and reducing deviant behavior among adolescents. The research discusses the role of Islamic Religious Education in addressing social deviance among adolescents. Social deviance phenomena in adolescents, such as delinquency, deviant behavior, and violations of norms, are increasing and becoming a serious concern for educators, parents, and society. It is hoped that Islamic Religious Education can serve as an effective solution in shaping the character of adolescents to be more ethical, morally upright, and to understand the social boundaries in line with religious values. Using a qualitative approach, this study highlights the effectiveness of PAI in developing moral understanding, strengthening ethical principles, and reinforcing the faith of adolescents. This study also identifies various factors influencing the success of PAI in addressing deviant behavior, including the role of the family, social environment, and teaching methods used. The results of the study show that Islamic Religious Education has a significant influence in reducing negative behavioral tendencies in adolescents through the enhancement of spiritual awareness and the strengthening of moral values.
