<![CDATA[This study examines the strategic planning of digital transformation in Islamic education through the leadership of Tuan Gurus in Islamic boarding schools affiliated with Nahdlatul Wathan (NW) and Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) in Lombok, Indonesia. This study addresses three main issues: the construction of the digital transformation planning concept, the strategic planning process implemented by Tuan Gurus, and the strategic planning development model for digital transformation in Islamic education. Using a qualitative multi-site case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with 16 informants, participant observation, and documentation study of two Islamic boarding schools. Data were analyzed using interactive qualitative analysis that included data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that digital transformation in Islamic boarding schools is not only interpreted as technological modernization but as a strategic effort to strengthen Islamic education, preserve Islamic boarding school traditions, and increase the effectiveness of da'wah in the digital era. Tuan Guru leadership plays a central role in legitimizing institutional transformation through visionary religious leadership, collaborative deliberation, and culturally adaptive innovation. The strategic planning process includes institutional deliberation, curriculum redesign, digital infrastructure development, human resource strengthening, and continuous evaluation. Furthermore, this study proposes a conceptual model of strategic planning for digital transformation consisting of five interrelated dimensions: visionary religious leadership, collaborative deliberation strategy, digital contextual adaptation, integrated traditional-digital learning, and continuous evaluation and innovation.]]>
