This study aims to describe the strategies used by Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers in implementing the 7 Habits of Great Children and to analyze the supporting and inhibiting factors for its implementation among fifth-grade students at SDN Besuk Kidul. The research employed a qualitative approach, with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that the implementation of the 7 Habits is carried out through four main strategies: teacher role-modelling, positive reinforcement, integration of habit values into PAI learning, and collaboration between teachers and parents. These strategies were proven effective in fostering students’ religious character, discipline, responsibility, and positive social behavior. The success of the program is supported by the teacher’s commitment, strong emotional bonds between teachers and students, parental involvement, and monitoring through the 7 Habits Student Book. Meanwhile, inhibiting factors include limited time for habit development at school and inconsistency of parental assistance at home. Overall, this study confirms that habituation and role-modelling–based Islamic education practices can serve as an effective model for internalizing Islamic character values in elementary school students.
