But they can also face challenges and pressures that sometimes lead them down the wrong path. In contemporary Muslim societies, youth deviance poses a growing moral and social concern. Islamic religious education offers guidance by teaching values like honesty, respect, self-discipline, and responsibility. These teachings can help young people make better choices and stay on a positive path.
This study looks at how Islamic education can play a practical role in preventing youth deviance and shaping responsible, ethical members of society. The Purpose of Religious Education in Islam Religious education refers to a set of deliberate and purposeful actions aimed at teaching the valid tenets of a religion to others in such a way that they become committed and adherent to those teachings both in practice and in belief.
Based on this definition, religious education is not confined to a mosque, church, or seminary; rather, any place may serve as a venue for purposeful efforts to teach religious knowledge, whether it be a mosque, street, home, or elsewhere [1] . In essence, Islamic education aims to “create individuals who are devoted to Allah and who can achieve a happy life in this world and the hereafter.
The goal of Islamic religious education is to develop a quality and well-characterized person with a broad vision for the future, capable of adapting quickly and appropriately to their environment. This is because Islamic education itself motivates us to improve in all aspects of life [2] .” Thus, the ultimate objective of Islamic religious education is the realization of human perfection.
