<![CDATA[The development of digital technology and the rapid flow of religious information on social media demand the presence of critical, systematic, and contextual religious literacy in Islamic Religious Education (PAI). This article examines the integration of historical-critical methods including source criticism, isnād-cum-matn methods, and textual archaeology as a methodological framework to improve the quality of PAI learning in the modern era. This research uses a qualitative approach based on literature studies.

This article recommends the gradual and proportional pedagogical implementation of historical-critical methods in the PAI curriculum.]]>
