Broken Home, Resilience, Islamic Education, Social-EmotionalAbstract
The phenomenon of broken homes is one of the factors influencing students’ social-emotional development, such as emotional instability, low self-esteem, and difficulty building adaptive social relationships. This situation demands educational strategies that are not only focused on cognitive aspects but also strengthen students’ psychological resilience. This study aims to analyze Islamic educational strategies in building resilience among students from broken homes. The study employed a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data collection was conducted through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, followed by analysis via data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing using triangulation to ensure validity. The results indicate that effective Islamic educational strategies include integrating spiritual values into learning, fostering religious practices, teacher role modeling, and empathetic communication. These strategies enhance students’ ability to manage emotions, strengthen social relationships, and develop spirituality as a source of internal resilience. This study confirms that Islamic education plays a strategic role as a protective factor in building resilience among students from broken homes.
