<![CDATA[Pesantren play a strategic role in shaping students' character, particularly in fostering discipline among tahfidz (Qur’an memorization) students. One of the prominent caregiving approaches applied in the pesantren environment is the authoritative style, which combines firmness with warmth. This approach is considered effective in building discipline because it provides room for dialogue and responsible freedom for students. This article presents findings from a qualitative research study conducted at Pesantren Kyai Syarifuddin, Lumajang. The results reveal that the application of the authoritative technique by teachers positively contributes to improving the discipline of tahfidz students. Supporting factors include students’ internal motivation, effective communication between teachers and students, and parental support.
