<![CDATA[This study aims to examine the role of teacher competence in creating relevant and contextualized Islamic Cultural History (ISCH) learning. The approach used is a qualitative approach with a library research type, namely through the study of various relevant literature sources on teacher competence and the stages of ISCH learning. The results of the study indicate that teacher competence in the fields of pedagogy, professionalism, personality, and social have a significant impact on the smoothness of the teaching and learning process. Competent teachers are able to organize a more active and creative learning process and are able to connect the subject matter with students' real-life situations using a contextual approach. Using methods such as storytelling, discussion, and role play, as well as interactive learning media, can maximize student enthusiasm for learning, engagement, and level of understanding. Contextual learning not only focuses on cognitive abilities, but also has the ability to develop students' character and attitudes in accordance with Islamic values. Therefore, teacher competence is a crucial factor in shaping the ISCH learning process that not only provides information, but also has meaning and can be applied in everyday life.]]>
