Abstract. This study was motivated by the development of digital technology, which has transformed communication patterns and the way adolescents access information, including religious knowledge. Amid the increasing use of social media, Islamic boarding schools face challenges in maintaining their existence, building positive perceptions, and reaching younger generations through approaches that align with the characteristics of the digital era. This study aimed to examine the form of implementation, implementation processes, challenges, and outcomes of an Islamic digital education program through social media in strengthening Pondok Pesantren Amanah Ummah Bandung among adolescents. This study employed a qualitative approach using a case study method. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, direct observations, digital observations of the pesantren’s social media platforms, and research documentation. Data analysis was conducted through data condensation, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, while data validity was ensured through source triangulation, technique triangulation, and member checking. The findings indicate that the Islamic digital education program was implemented through the utilization of Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube as platforms for delivering Islamic values, adolescent education, student activity documentation, and institutional publications. The implementation process consisted of content planning, media team formation, content production and editing, verification, publication, audience interaction, and evaluation. The challenges encountered included limited human resources, production facilities, management time, content consistency, and maintaining the pesantren’s identity and Islamic values within the digital environment. The program resulted in increased digital visibility of the pesantren, more positive adolescent perceptions, greater audience engagement, and improved digital skills among students involved in media management. Therefore, Islamic digital education through social media can serve as an adaptive, communicative, and relevant strategy for strengthening Islamic boarding schools in responding to the needs of younger generations in the digital era.

Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa implementasi program edukasi digital Islami dilakukan melalui pemanfaatan media sosial Instagram, TikTok, dan YouTube sebagai sarana penyampaian nilai-nilai keislaman, edukasi remaja, dokumentasi aktivitas santri, serta publikasi program kelembagaan.
