Digital transformation and the rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) require Islamic educational institutions to develop the capacity to adapt rapidly and continuously. This study examines the effects of Digital Leadership and Management Information Systems on Organizational Agility in Islamic educational institutions. A quantitative explanatory research design was employed, involving 78 respondents engaged in the management of Islamic educational institutions. Data were collected using a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed through descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and multiple linear regression. The findings reveal that Digital Leadership has a very strong relationship with Organizational Agility (r = 0.955) and a positive and significant effect (B = 0.905; p < 0.001). In contrast, Management Information Systems demonstrate a positive but weak relationship with Organizational Agility (r = 0.290) and have no significant independent effect (B = 0.010; p = 0.744). The model explains 91.1% of the variance in Organizational Agility (R² = 0.911). These findings indicate that information technology alone does not automatically generate organizational agility; rather, Digital Leadership serves as the key mechanism through which digital resources are transformed into adaptive institutional capabilities. The study extends Dynamic Capability Theory by conceptualizing Organizational Agility as a leadership-enabled capability, while Management Information Systems function primarily as supporting technological infrastructure. This finding offers a leadership-centered model of digital transformation for Islamic educational institutions in the era of AI.
