<![CDATA[This community service article examines the role of a weekly majelis taklim in strengthening religious understanding and the everyday practice of Islamic values among women in Nagari Sipinang, Palembayan District, Agam Regency. The activity is held every Thursday night at Masjid Ikhlas Sipinang, using the community's existing religious gathering as a sustainable learning space. An educational-participatory approach was applied through Qur'anic reading, religious explanations, discussion, question-and-answer sessions, and reflection on family and social experiences. Data were obtained from observation, activity documentation, and reflection on the implementation and were analyzed descriptively and qualitatively. The activity shows that a routine majelis taklim provides opportunities to strengthen understanding of faith, worship, morals, family life, and social responsibility while also reinforcing relationships among participants. The main contribution of the program lies in utilizing an existing community institution rather than creating a temporary external activity. Because participant numbers and pre-test/post-test instruments were not available, the article does not claim a uniform or quantitative behavioral change. Future development should include systematic topic planning, varied learning methods, simple reflective evaluation, digital literacy, and stronger connections between religious material and family practices so that the majelis taklim can continue functioning as a community-based nonformal Islamic education center.]]>
