This research examines the implementation of character education in the Aqidah Akhlak learning process at MTs Negeri 3 Bolaang Mongondow Timur. The study aims to understand how the Aqidah Akhlak learning shapes student character as well as the supporting and inhibiting factors of the process. The method used is qualitative descriptive with a phenomenological approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving the principal, teachers, and seventh-grade students, then analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s data analysis model, which includes data reduction, data display, and drawing conclusions. The results reveal that the Aqidah Akhlak learning successfully instills noble character values such as honesty, discipline, and responsibility. Teachers play a role not only as instructors but also as role models in applying Islamic values. The teaching methods used are diverse and interactive, including lectures, discussions, and modeling. Routine activities such as congregational prayers, Quran recitations, and prayers before and after the lessons are important parts of the character-building process. Obstacles faced include peer influence, family background, and limitations in school facilities and infrastructure.
