Abstract

The digitalization of Islamic education brings significant changes in the learning methods of Islamic Religious Education (PAI), creating new opportunities and challenges in conveying religious values. The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of digitalization on the PAI curriculum, explore the potential of technology in improving the quality of learning, and analyze the challenges faced in its implementation. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive type, collecting data through library studies involving literature, articles, and related regulations. The results of the study show that technology can enrich students' learning experiences with various digital platforms, such as mobile applications and social media, which facilitate access to PAI materials. However, challenges such as digital scarcity, weakening teacher training, and content validity are major obstacles to the implementation of digitalization. However, with careful teacher training and content selection, digitalization can answer the needs of the younger generation for more interactive and flexible learning. In conclusion, the PAI curriculum in the digital era must be more adaptive, integrate digital skills, and ensure the quality of content to remain in accordance with the true teachings of Islam.
