<![CDATA[This study aims to describe the implementation of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) and Character Building (Budi Pekerti) subjects in addressing juvenile delinquency in the digital era among eleventh-grade students of SMK Canda Bhirawa Pare. The development of digital technology has had a significant impact on adolescent behavior, particularly in the form of delinquency such as social media abuse, cyberbullying, gadget addiction, and declining ethics in online communication. This study used a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results showed that the implementation of PAI and Character Building was carried out contextually and relevant to the current conditions of students. PAI teachers not only convey religious material but also act as role models in fostering students' character through values such as honesty, responsibility, and courtesy. The implementation of active learning that touches on the reality of adolescents has been proven to be able to suppress various forms of delinquency. In addition, the habituation of religious activities such as the Dhuha prayer and reading the Qur'an also supports character building. This study concludes that synergy between teachers, schools, and parents is crucial to optimize the role of PAI and Character Building as a moral bulwark for students in the digital era.]]>
