<![CDATA[The digitalization of Islamic education in the Malay world presents a complex dualism: while it opens boundless knowledge access beyond geographical constraints, it simultaneously risks eroding Malay values rooted over centuries. This article comprehensively examines Islamic education digitalization in the context of Malay cultural resilience through qualitative-analytical library research. The study analyzes reputable journal articles, prevailing educational policy regulations, and relevant academic documents. Findings indicate that digital transformation induces a paradigmatic shift in Malay Islamic educational epistemology, where the values of adat bersendikan syarak, syarak bersendikan kitabullah face pressure from global cultural currents via digital platforms. Indonesian education policies (Law No. 20/2003, Government Regulation No. 57/2021) and pesantren regulation (Law No. 18/2019) have not fully accommodated the Malay cultural dimension in the digital transformation process. This article recommends integrating Malay values into digital curricula, developing locally-rooted educational platforms, strengthening Islamic digital literacy, and synergizing policies across Islamic educational institutions.]]>
