The purpose of this study is to shed more light on how Islamic Religious Education influences students' religious identities. This study uses a qualitative methodology in conjunction with a survey of the literature, gathering data from books, journal articles, conference papers, theses, and other sources that are relevant to the subject under investigation. The results of the study show that Islamic Religious Education improves students' comprehension of Islamic teachings, fortifies their spiritual awareness, and fosters moral behavior in everyday life.
