The Society 5.0 paradigm emphasizes the harmonious integration of advanced technologies with human-centered values to address increasingly complex societal challenges. Islamic Religious Education is expected to contribute not only to students’ religious understanding but also to the development of competencies required for sustainable human civilization. This study aims to formulate a human-centered Islamic learning model aligned with the principles of Society 5.0. A qualitative conceptual research design was adopted through literature synthesis, policy analysis, and expert consultation. The findings demonstrate that Islamic Religious Education can effectively promote creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, digital competence, ethical leadership, and social responsibility when integrated with contemporary pedagogical innovations.
