Instilling educational values in Arabic language learning is essential for shaping students who are not only linguistically proficient but also morally upright. Ayyuhal Walad by Imam Al-Ghazali is one of the classical Islamic texts that offers profound messages on spiritual, ethical, and moral education, which are highly relevant to the objectives of Islamic education. This study aims to explore the educational values contained in the book and analyze its potential as instructional material in Arabic language learning. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach through library research methods. The findings reveal that Ayyuhal Walad contains various educational values such as sincerity in seeking knowledge, respect for teachers, the importance of acting upon acquired knowledge, and self-evaluation (muhasabah) as a means of moral refinement. These values can be integrated into Arabic language instruction through the use of authentic and contextual texts. Therefore, this classical work not only enriches students’ linguistic abilities but also contributes to the development of a holistic Islamic character.
