<![CDATA[Teachers’ performance in Islamic educational institutions is increasingly challenged by rising professional demands that require not only technical competence but also strong internal regulation and moral commitment. Self-management grounded in Islamic values offers a holistic approach to strengthening teachers’ psychological confidence and professional conduct, yet its role in shaping self-efficacy and performance has received limited scholarly attention. This study aims to examine the role of Islamic values–based self-management in enhancing teachers’ self-efficacy and professional performance within Islamic education contexts. The study employs a qualitative research design using a descriptive–analytical library research approach, drawing on primary and secondary sources such as academic books, peer-reviewed journals, and authoritative Islamic educational texts. The analysis focuses on the interrelationship between value-based self-regulation, teachers’ self-efficacy, and performance. The findings indicate that Islamic values–based self-management, characterized by amanah, sincerity, discipline, responsibility, and spiritual accountability, significantly strengthens teachers’ self-efficacy. Enhanced self-efficacy subsequently contributes to consistent instructional behavior, ethical professionalism, and sustained performance. The results suggest that teacher performance is more effectively supported through internally motivated, value-driven self-regulation than through external control mechanisms alone. The study concludes that integrating Islamic values into self-management practices provides a sustainable pathway for improving teachers’ self-efficacy and performance, offering important theoretical and practical implications for Islamic educational leadership and teacher development.]]>
