<![CDATA[This study aims to provide an in-depth description of the construction of an Islamic learning environment and its significance in fostering student learning motivation within the Islamic Religious Education (PAI) subject at SMP IT As-Syukuriah Kuningan. As an institution implementing a full-day school system, creating a consistent religious atmosphere serves as a key strategy for sustaining student enthusiasm for learning. A descriptive qualitative method with a case study design was employed. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews with the principal, PAI teachers, and students, alongside participant observation to capture daily school activities. The results indicate that student learning motivation at SMP IT As-Syukuriah is driven not merely by classroom instruction but by a "hidden curriculum" emerging from three environmental dimensions: the physical-symbolic, the social-humanistic, and the organizational-spiritual. The findings conclude that a learning environment emphasizing exemplary conduct (uswah hasanah) and the habituation of collective acts of worship can transform student motivation from a mere sense of academic obligation into spiritual awareness. This study highlights the importance of designing a school environment aligned with Islamic philosophical values as a supporting instrument for the success of PAI instruction in secondary schools.]]>
