The Pancasila Student Profile and Rahmatan lil Alamin Student Profile Strengthening Project (P5RA) integrates national and Islamic character education in Indonesian madrasahs. This study aimed to describe P5RA implementation conditions, challenges, and students’ reported and observed environmental-care practices at MAN 2 Palembang. Using a qualitative single-site case-study design, data were collected from 26 purposively selected participants, including 20 students, four teachers, and two school leaders, through observations, interviews, focus-group discussions, document analysis, and a supplementary questionnaire. Data were interpreted using Edwards III’s policy implementation framework and Lickona’s character education concepts. Findings revealed structured planning, teacher coordination, and institutional support, alongside limitations in facilities, waste management, time allocation, and facilitator readiness. Descriptive questionnaire findings showed that 85% of students reported understanding project objectives, while 90% reported maintaining cleanliness, 85% bringing reusable tumblers, 80% sorting waste, and 75% tending plants. These percentages represent participants’ self-reported practices rather than measured behavioural improvements. Without baseline measurements or a comparison group, the findings cannot establish causal effects attributable to P5RA. The study provides contextual insights into programme implementation and environmental-care practices in madrasah education.
