Abstract

This study stems from the increasing number of teenagers who deviate from Islamic religious education, thus requiring a model and approach to Islamic religious education that can shape the morals, character, and attitudes of teenagers for the better. The purpose of this study is to determine what models and approaches can be used for Islamic religious education for teenagers at Madrasah Tsanawiyah Solok. This research is quantitative in nature, with data collected through online interviews and observations. The results show a high level of agreement that Islamic religious education can prevent juvenile delinquency, with 21 out of 50 respondents (42%) strongly agreeing and 30 respondents (60%) stating that PAI plays an important role in shaping morals. In addition, 40 respondents (80%) strongly agreed that the PAI approach made learning more effective and increased student engagement. A total of 25 respondents (50%) strongly agreed that families and communities play a major role in character building in accordance with Islamic values. Overall, the data showed a positive correlation between the application of the PAI approach and increased involvement and character building, thus proving that Islamic religious education is effective as a model for shaping youth character.
