<![CDATA[The moral challenges faced by students in the era of digital transformation require educational institutions to strengthen character formation not only through formal learning, but also through applied and continuous activities. Religious extracurricular activities are regarded as an effective strategy for shaping students’ morals through the habituation of religious values and the direct practice of religious rituals. This study aims to analyze the implementation of religious extracurricular activities and their contribution to improving students’ morals at MA Mamba’ul Ulum Megaluh Jombang. A descriptive qualitative approach with a field research design was employed. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, observation, and documentation involving the head of the madrasah, the vice-principal for student affairs, activity supervisors, and students participating in the extracurricular programs. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, comprising data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, with data validity ensured through source and method triangulation. The findings show that religious extracurricular activities such as khatmil Qur’an, tilawah Al-Qur’an, al-banjari, muhadharah, and the commemoration of Islamic holy days contribute positively to students’ moral formation, particularly in fostering discipline, responsibility, cooperation, religious awareness, and courteous behaviour. Nevertheless, the implementation of these activities still faces constraints in the form of limited time, varying levels of student motivation, and inadequate supporting facilities. The study concludes that religious extracurricular activities can serve as an effective strategy for strengthening students’ moral education, provided they are implemented in a structured and consistent manner and supported by strong institutional commitment.]]>
