<![CDATA[The formation of students' religious character is one of the primary objectives of national education; however, its attainment cannot be solely entrusted to formal educational institutions. The family, as al-madrasah al-ula or the first and foremost educational institution, plays a crucial role through the parenting styles applied by parents. This study aims to describe the parenting styles of Class V students' parents at SD Negeri 1 Kaliwiro Wonosobo, to describe students' religious characters, and to analyze the influence of parenting styles on the formation of those religious characters. This study employed a causal associative quantitative approach with saturated sampling technique covering all 54 Class V students. Data were collected using a Likert scale consisting of 15 statement items for variable X (parenting style) and 23 statement items for variable Y (students' religious character). Data analysis techniques included the Kolmogorov-Smirnov normality test, linearity test, simple linear regression, partial t-test, and coefficient of determination test using IBM SPSS Statistics 25. The results indicate that parenting styles are generally in the moderate category (75.9%), with the mean score of the permissive dimension (2.70) slightly higher than democratic (2.68) and authoritarian (2.60). Students' religious character also falls in the moderate category (68.5%). Hypothesis testing yielded a significance value of 0.019 < 0.05, thus H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted. The regression equation Y' = 45.015 + 0.437X with an R Square value of 0.102 indicates that parenting style has a significant influence of 10.2% on the formation of religious character, while the remaining 89.8% is influenced by other factors outside this study.]]>
