Abstract

This study aims to analyze and describe the management of daily worship habituation programs as an effort to strengthen students' religious character at MTs Negeri 1 Tana Toraja, covering the aspects of planning, organizing, actuating, and controlling. This study employed a qualitative approach with field research and a descriptive design. Data collection was carried out through participatory observation of madrasah worship routines, in-depth interviews with the school principal, vice principals, Islamic education teachers, homeroom teachers, and students, as well as documentation of standard operating procedures, work plans, and daily worship monitoring records. The findings reveal that: (1) planning is formulated through annual work meetings by setting character targets, formulating SOPs, integrating schedules for morning Quran recitation, Asmaul Husna, Dhuha prayer, and congregational Zuhr prayer into the academic calendar, and preparing musalla facilities; (2) organizing is implemented through structured task distribution by official decree involving vice principals, Islamic education teachers, cross-subject teacher duty rosters, homeroom teachers, and Islamic student council members as peer role models; (3) actuating is realized through consistent habituation, exemplary role modeling by teachers in front prayer rows, simultaneous cessation of learning activities during the call to prayer, and rotating student-teacher sermons; (4) controlling is carried out through direct monitoring by duty teachers at the prayer hall, indirect supervision via daily mutaba'ah logs connected with parents at home, regular evaluation meetings, educational counseling, and integrating habituation outcomes into students' spiritual attitude report card assessments
