This study was designed to investigate the function of Islamic education in fostering ethical behavior among students in the context of social media. The research methodology employed is qualitative, using a case study approach at SMK IT Al-Khairiyah Cilegon, incorporating the perspectives of both PAI teachers and students as participants. The findings show that the incorporation of Islamic values in religious education significantly enhances students' understanding of the critical nature of digital ethics, despite the constraints posed by curriculum limitations and technological challenges.

The implications of this study underscore the need for curriculum modernization and the imperative to enhance teachers' ability to nurture students' ethical and responsible digital identities.]]>
