Moral degradation, technological influences, and social challenges have increased the need for effective character education among students. This study aims to analyze the role of Islamic education in developing students’ moral values, discipline, responsibility, and social awareness. The research employed a qualitative descriptive method involving teachers, students, and parents from Islamic educational institutions. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation. The findings revealed that Islamic education contributes significantly to character formation through religious activities, moral guidance, teacher role modeling, and parental involvement. Students who actively participated in Islamic educational activities demonstrated better discipline, honesty, empathy, and social interaction. The study also found that spiritual activities such as prayer and Qur’an recitation positively influenced students’ emotional control and ethical behavior.
