ABSTRACT
Students today include Generation Z, who are considered a generation that needs special attention from teachers and parents compared to the previous generation because this generation is considered less independent, weak in fighting power and tends to be unstable and less focused on learning at school and at home and often has a bad attitude or is far from the order of Islamic religious values. This means that maximum guidance from Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers is needed in learning at school in synergy with attitude coaching by parents at home as the main environment in shaping students' character. The role of parents and religious teachers is very influential in the formation of students' character. This study aims to explore the role of Islamic Religious Education teachers and parents in shaping the character of Mika Bakti Ciparay Junior High School students. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach supported by primary and secondary data obtained through interviews and school documentation. The results of the research show that Islamic Religious Education teachers play an important role as an inspiration who provides examples, as informants who are in charge of conveying religious knowledge clearly and accurately; as a supervisor, providing direction and guidance in students' daily lives; also as a motivator who always encourages students to continue learning and developing themselves. On the other hand, parents play an important role as the main educator at home, instilling character education from an early age that always motivates, supports education and as a guide in the direction of life, also directs their children in good and responsible decision-making. PAI teachers and parents need close cooperation and synergy to foster and form students with strong and resilient characters who are in accordance with Islamic values (Islamic character).
