Strategi Pembelajaran Akidah Akhlaq dalam Mencegah Perilaku Bullying di MTS Al-Istiqomah Cijerah Bandung

Abstract. This research is motivated by the phenomenon of bullying that still occurs in the school environment, even though moral education has been provided through the learning of Akidah Akhlak. MTs Al-Istiqomah Cijerah Bandung is one of the madrasas that makes serious efforts to prevent bullying behavior through learning based on Islamic values ​​by combining habituation programs, value learning, role models, and religious discipline. This condition is evident from the minimal cases of bullying due to the ongoing character development through religious activities such as congregational Duha prayer, tadarus, tausiyah, and the habituation of akhlakul karimah which is applied since students enter the school environment. This research uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data collection was carried out through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving the principal of the madrasah, Akidah Akhlak teachers, and students at MTs Al-Istiqomah Cijerah Bandung. The results of the study indicate that the Akidah Akhlak learning strategy in preventing bullying behavior is carried out through the integration of Islamic values ​​in learning, teacher role models (uswah hasanah), and the habituation of continuous religious and social activities. This strategy is supported by school policies and the religious climate of the madrasah, although it still faces obstacles such as the influence of social media, family background, and limited learning time. This study concludes that the Akidah Akhlak learning strategy contributes significantly to suppressing and preventing bullying behavior through consistent internalization of Islamic moral values. Abstrak. Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh fenomena bullying yang masih terjadi di lingkungan sekolah, meskipun pendidikan akhlak telah diberikan melalui pembelajaran Akidah Akhlak. MTs Al-Istiqomah Cijerah Bandung merupakan salah satu madrasah yang berupaya secara serius mencegah perilaku bullying melalui pembelajaran berbasis nilai-nilai Islam dengan memadukan program pembiasaan, pembelajaran nilai, teladan, serta kedisiplinan religius. Kondisi ini tampak dari minimnya kasus bullying karena adanya pembinaan karakter yang berlangsung secara berkelanjutan melalui kegiatan keagamaan seperti shalat duha berjamaah, tadarus, tausiyah, serta pembiasaan akhlakul karimah yang diterapkan sejak siswa memasuki lingkungan sekolah. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode deskriptif. Penggalian data dilakukan melalui observasi, wawancara mendalam, dan dokumentasi yang melibatkan kepala madrasah, guru Akidah Akhlak, serta peserta didik di MTs Al-Istiqomah Cijerah Bandung. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa strategi pembelajaran Akidah Akhlak dalam mencegah perilaku bullying dilakukan melalui integrasi nilai-nilai Islam dalam pembelajaran, keteladanan guru (uswah hasanah), serta pembiasaan kegiatan religius dan sosial yang berkelanjutan. Strategi tersebut didukung oleh kebijakan sekolah dan iklim religius madrasah, meskipun masih menghadapi hambatan berupa pengaruh media sosial, latar belakang keluarga, dan keterbatasan waktu pembelajaran. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa strategi pembelajaran Akidah Akhlak berkontribusi signifikan dalam menekan dan mencegah perilaku bullying melalui internalisasi nilai moral Islam secara konsisten.
