<![CDATA[Digital transformation in Islamic educational institutions often faces a dilemma between technological modernization and the preservation of Islamic values. This study aims to analyze the concept of digital leadership in Islamic education, map the challenges of its transformation, describe best practices, and formulate reinforcement strategies to enhance quality management. Utilizing a library research method, this study examines and synthesizes relevant literature. The findings reveal that digital leadership in Islamic education is an integrative approach combining four core digital competencies (digital vision, behavior, expertise, and mindset) with Islamic leadership principles (amanah, shura, and uswah hasanah). In practice, digital transformation confronts four interconnected systemic challenges: infrastructure limitations, low human resource digital literacy, organizational culture resistance, and policy gaps. Nevertheless, best practices across several madrasahs demonstrate that an incremental approach through LMS utilization, administrative digitalization (EMIS/RDM), and peer mentoring effectively drives change. This study concludes that strengthening quality management requires an Islamic value-based transformational-digital leadership that continuously integrates HR capacity building with quality assurance systems.]]>
