This study aims to analyze Islamic Religious Education teachers’ strategies in strengthening students’ ukhuwah Islamiyah at SMA Muhammadiyah 18 Sunggal. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that teachers strengthen ukhuwah Islamiyah through an integrative strategy involving planning, guidance, habituation, exemplary conduct, motivation, supervision, and positive reinforcement. These strategies are implemented through Friday donation activities, social assistance for members of the school community experiencing hardship, and the habituation of smiling, greeting, showing respect, politeness, and courtesy. The implementation contributes to students’ empathy, solidarity, social concern, cooperation, and mutual respect. However, teacher involvement in planning and coordination remains uneven, resulting in some dependence on individual teachers. The study highlights the importance of collaborative teacher involvement and systematic program management in transforming ukhuwah Islamiyah from a religious concept into a lived social practice within the school environment
