Abstract
In the digital era, the formation of morals in children is increasingly complex due to the rapid flow of information. Islamic Religious Education plays an important role in shaping children's character through instilling the values of the Qur'an and Hadith. Morals are the main foundation in an individual's personality, both personally and socially. In the midst of the rapid information that is unlimited and often contradicts religious values, moral education is needed to guide children in using technology wisely and responsibly. The strategy for forming morals through Islamic Religious Education includes direct strategies such as role models, recommendations, and training, as well as indirect strategies such as prohibitions, punishments, and supervision. The importance of the involvement of parents and teachers as role models and providing consistent guidance is key to instilling noble values. In addition, digital literacy must also be taught to children so that they are able to filter information and avoid negative influences from cyberspace. With this combination of approaches, Islamic Religious Education is expected to be able to answer the challenges of the digital era, while forming a young generation that is faithful, pious, and has noble morals in accordance with Islamic teachings. Collaboration between family, school, and the environment is very important to create education that supports the formation of strong and sustainable morals.
