THE ROLE OF ISLAMIC EDUCATION IN BUILDING CHARACTER AND SOCIAL STABILITY AMONG STUDENTS AT MADRASAH ALIYAH IBNU HUSAIN IN SURABAYA
Abstract
Islamic education plays a fundamental role in shaping students’ character and maintaining social stability, particularly at the Madrasah Aliyah level, where adolescents experience complex cognitive, emotional, and social development. Current phenomena indicate a decline in moral values, increasing individualistic behavior, and weakening social awareness among students, making Islamic education highly relevant as a value-based educational system. This study aims to analyze the role of Islamic education in building character and social stability among students at Madrasah Aliyah Ibnu Husain Surabaya. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach with a field research design. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, direct observation, and documentation involving Islamic education teachers, homeroom teachers, and selected students. The findings reveal that Islamic education significantly contributes to character formation through the internalization of moral values via habituation, exemplary behavior (uswah hasanah), and integrated learning processes. Furthermore, Islamic education fosters social stability by promoting tolerance, empathy, cooperation, and harmonious interactions among students. Religious activities such as congregational prayers, Qur’anic recitation, and social programs strengthen both individual religiosity and collective social bonds. In conclusion, Islamic education not only develops students’ moral and spiritual dimensions but also plays a crucial role in creating a stable and harmonious social environment within the school.
