<![CDATA[Juvenile delinquency continues to be a growing social issue requiring serious attention, particularly in the Curug District, Tangerang Regency (1). This study focuses on The Role of Religious Leaders (Ulama) and Government Leaders (Umaro) in instilling Islamic Religious Education in Efforts to Address Juvenile Delinquency (2). The forms of juvenile delinquency observed include student brawls, sarong fights, alcohol consumption, physical violence, illegal street racing, drug abuse, bullying, and theft (3). These phenomena are triggered by various factors, such as a weak understanding of religious values, a lack of parental supervision, negative environmental influences, and uncontrolled access to digital information. This study aims to analyze the role of Ulama and Umaro in instilling Islamic religious education as a strategic effort to mitigate juvenile delinquency (4). A descriptive qualitative method was employed, utilizing interviews, observations, and documentation techniques (5). The findings reveal that Ulama play a vital role in guiding adolescents spiritually and morally through youth religious gatherings, Ramadan programs, weekly studies, and dakwah activities that emphasize character and faith development. Meanwhile, Umaro supports relevant policies, social programs, and provides facilities that enable positive youth activities. The novelty of this research lies in its approach, which emphasizes synergy among Ulama, Umaro, and the community in holistically embedding Islamic education, thereby forming a strong moral foundation to face modern challenges and significantly reduce the rate of juvenile delinquency.
