<![CDATA[Education in Islam plays a very significant role in shaping individuals who are faithful, knowledgeable, and well-behaved. The guidance provided by female supervisors (musyrifah) at Islamic boarding schools (pondok pesantren) serves as the foundation for strengthening the students’ religious commitment. If the support provided by female supervisors to female students is strong, the students’ religious character will improve. However, if the support from female supervisors is weak, the students’ religious character will decline. This article aims to detail the role of female supervisors in shaping, guiding, and enhancing the religious character of female students, as well as the supporting and inhibiting factors in this process, as applied at the Darus Darusy Syahadah Islamic Boarding School, Unit Kulliyatul Mualimat Littahfidzil Qur’an (KMT), Kedunglengkong, Simo, Boyolali. The method used in this study is a qualitative method that does not follow a specific systematic approach, where the data obtained is textual or in the form of words. The collected data is not numerical but comes from interview transcripts, observations, and other documents. The results of this study indicate that to enhance the religious character of female students, the female supervisors focus on guiding the students’ daily worship practices, such as the five daily prayers at the mosque, congregational tahajjud prayers, and voluntary fasting. Each female supervisor serves as a second parent, a mentor for the Quran memorization circles, a teacher, and a role model for the female students.]]>
