This study aims to examine the implementation of Al-Ghazali’s moral education concept at Tahfidz An-Naba Islamic Boarding School, Suro, Banyumas. Al-Ghazali is one of the most influential figures in Islamic thought who emphasized that moral education is the essence of education. Tahfidz An-Naba was chosen as the research site due to its strong commitment to character building among students. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method using field studies and documentation. The findings reveal that the pesantren applies Al-Ghazali’s moral education concept through seven main methods: mujahadah (spiritual struggle), riyadhah (spiritual training), exemplary role models, habituation, advice and counsel, storytelling, and rewards. Supporting factors include parental support and strong cooperation between teachers and mentors, while obstacles include weak internal communication, the diverse backgrounds of students, and the influence of digital devices. Overall, the implementation of Al-Ghazali’s moral education concept is considered effective in fostering noble character (akhlaqul karimah) among the students.
