Abstract

This study aims to develop a Qur'anic-based educational management model for integrating Islamic da'wah into educational environments to strengthen students' character, religious values, and social responsibility. This study employed a qualitative conceptual approach through a literature-based analysis of the Qur'an, hadith, classical and contemporary Islamic educational thought, and relevant educational studies. The findings indicate that effective integration of Islamic da'wah requires a systematic educational management approach involving families, schools, communities, mosques, learning forums, and digital environments. The proposed model integrates Qur'anic values through exemplary practice (uswah hasanah), habituation, dialogue, storytelling, social projects, curricular integration, and digital media. It is guided by four key principles: systematic planning, stakeholder collaboration, continuous implementation, and evaluation-oriented improvement. The proposed model provides a conceptual framework for Islamic educational institutions to manage da'wah as an integral component of sustainable character development. Its implementation may transform educational environments from spaces primarily focused on knowledge transmission into strategic settings for developing faith, moral character, social responsibility, and educational quality.
