This study explores the significance of ethics education at SMPN 16 Krui, Pesisir Barat, with a particular focus on the implementation of values derived from Surah Al-Isra' verses 23–24, which emphasize respect for parents and other core Islamic ethical principles. The background of the study highlights behavioral challenges among students, such as a lack of respect toward teachers and low moral awareness. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis. The findings indicate that ethics education is implemented through both formal instruction and non-formal activities, including a "Character Week" program and daily routines such as queuing culture and congregational prayers. Interactive methods like group discussions and role-playing have proven effective in helping students internalize ethical values. The values embodied in Surah Al-Isra’ verses 23–24—such as compassion, humility, and patience—are highly relevant to contemporary educational contexts and are integrated into students' daily activities. Challenges in implementation include students’ low awareness, limited parental support, inadequate facilities, and a lack of teacher training. Nevertheless, regular evaluations and strong collaboration between schools and parents serve to enhance the program’s effectiveness. This study makes a tangible contribution to the development of character education based on Qur’anic values, particularly at SMPN 16 Krui, and presents a model that can be adapted by other schools.
