Budaya Religius Sekolah dalam Penguatan Kecerdasan Emosional Peserta Didik: Perspektif Pendidikan Islam di Era Digital

Abstract

The development of the digital era has significantly transformed students’ behavior, communication patterns, and character formation, particularly in emotional and spiritual aspects. Easy access to information through digital media not only provides educational benefits but also creates various challenges, including moral degradation, low social empathy, cyberbullying, and increasing individualism. This study aims to analyze the role of school religious culture in strengthening students’ emotional intelligence from the perspective of Islamic education in the digital era. The research employed a qualitative approach using a library research method through the analysis of scientific journals, books, and academic articles published between 2018 and 2026. The findings indicate that school religious culture, implemented through routine worship activities, moral habituation, teachers’ role modeling, and the integration of Islamic values into digital activities, contributes significantly to improving students’ self-awareness, emotional control, motivation, empathy, and social skills. This study argues that school religious culture serves as an essential strategy in Islamic education to shape insan kamil, individuals who are not only intellectually competent but also emotionally and spiritually mature amidst the challenges of the digital era.
