Abstract

In an Islamic perspective, theoretical character education has actually existed since Islam was revealed in the world along with the sending of the prophet Muhammad SAW. to improve or perfect human character. Islamic character is the nature, character, morality, ethics, or behavior that is Islamic. Islamic character can be understood as an effort to instill intelligence in students in thinking, behaving, and behaving in accordance with the noble values that become their identity, manifested in interactions with God, themselves, among others and their environment. With this irritating phenomenon because at this time moral degradation is increasing infecting the younger generation, of course this is a special concern for education actors so that there are efforts to improve moral issues and good personality character. Education must of course teach Islamic characters that encourage children to have an Islamic spirit to become human beings who believe and fear Allah SWT.
