This type of research is qualitative with a case study approach, involving 40 students at UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta as resource persons. Data collection techniques were conducted through questionnaires and in-depth interviews, then analyzed using thematic analysis techniques. The results showed that the majority of students gave positive responses to the application of this strategy, with 53.77% agreeing and 26.65% strongly agreeing. The implementation of the Socratic Questioning strategy proved to be effective in helping students develop critical thinking skills, strengthening their ability to organize arguments systematically, and increasing engagement in class discussions.
