Strategy to Increase Awareness of Congregational Prayer in the Elementary School Environment of STKIP Muhammadiyah Bangka Belitung
Main Article Content
Abstract
The implementation of congregational prayer (sholat berjamaah) among students often faces various challenges, such as low participation, lack of concentration, and limited understanding of its importance. This article aims to identify and describe character education innovations to enhance students' awareness of congregational prayer in schools and madrasahs. The method used is a literature study combined with an analysis of field-based program implementation. The results show that programs such as reward systems, daily habituation, spiritual mentoring, educational media utilization, and empowering students as imams and muadhins (callers to prayer) have a positive impact on students' spiritual awareness. These findings are expected to serve as a reference for other educational institutions in implementing similar strategies.
