<![CDATA[Social Studies (IPS) education plays a crucial role in shaping character and understanding of social, economic, and political structures within society. However, in the context of education in Indonesia, Social Studies often focuses solely on intellectual aspects without addressing the moral and spiritual dimensions. This study aims to analyze the application of Social Studies learning principles based on Islamic values, using a qualitative case study approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation in schools that implement an Islamic-based curriculum. The main findings show that the integration of Islamic values such as tawhid (belief in God), amal salih (good deeds), and ukhuwah (brotherhood) is dominant in Social Studies learning, not only in the subject matter but also in the interactions between teachers and students. Inclusive and collaborative learning methods, such as group discussions and joint problem-solving, are also applied to develop students' social skills. Islamic-based learning not only equips students with social knowledge but also fosters moral and social character rooted in good ethics. However, the study also identifies several challenges in implementation, such as limited resources and teacher training. Therefore, efforts are needed to update the curriculum and enhance teacher training to ensure that Islamic principles are effectively incorporated into Social Studies education. This study recommends further integration of Islamic values into Social Studies education to produce a generation that is not only intellectually capable but also has strong social character.]]>
