Abstract

This study examines the influence of Islamic education on the social life of the community. Islamic education includes not only the transfer of religious knowledge, but also the cultivation of values that influence the way individuals interact in social contexts. The methodology used in this study is a comprehensive literature study with content analysis against relevant primary and secondary sources. The results of the study show that Islamic education has a significant influence in shaping social behavior, strengthening community cohesion, building social ethics, and increasing participation in social-community activities. Islamic education also plays a role in reducing social conflict through instilling the value of tolerance and respect for diversity. This study concludes that the integration of Islamic educational values in the social system can contribute positively to the development of a harmonious and just society.
