Abstract

This Abstract. Digital transformation marked by the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has had a significant impact on the world of education, including Islamic boarding schools as traditional Islamic educational institutions. Although AI presents great opportunities in learning efficiency, personalization of materials, and access to knowledge, this technology also poses serious challenges to the formation of spiritual values and character of students. This study aims to analyze the impact of the use of AI on the spiritual values and character of students and to explore the managerial approach of Islamic boarding schools in integrating the values of the Qur'an through the interpretation of Quraish Shihab. The method used is qualitative research with a literature study approach, with primary data in the form of the Qur'an and the Tafsir Al-Mishbah, and supported by secondary literature from various scientific sources. The results of the analysis show that the use of AI that is not accompanied by strengthening divine values has the potential to cause degradation of manners, spiritual independence, and personal relationships between students and teachers. However, with an adaptive-protective managerial approach and a curriculum based on Qur'anic values, Islamic boarding schools can create an ethical and spiritual AI education ecosystem. This study emphasizes the importance of the principle of technology with spirituality in responding to the challenges of the times without sacrificing the character and spirit of Islamic education
