The research highlights the risks of conflict arising from insufficient integration of multicultural principles and underscores the urgent need for inclusive educational practices.</p> <p><strong>Research Methodology</strong><strong>: </strong>The study employs a rigorous library research method by analyzing selected scientific journal articles and research reports related to multiculturalism and Islamic education. The approach emphasizes thematic analysis to identify, interpret, and synthesize key concepts, strategies, and outcomes of multicultural integration in IRE.</p> <p><strong>Results</strong><strong>: </strong>Findings reveal that deliberate incorporation of multicultural perspectives in IRE is highly effective in enhancing tolerance and interfaith harmony. Anchored in the principles of respect for diversity and pluralism theory, success is achieved through inclusive curricula, educator training in tolerant classroom management, and the promotion of multicultural activities. This integration significantly fosters appreciation for diversity, reduces prejudice, and strengthens social cohesion.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion</strong><strong>s: </strong>A multicultural approach in IRE, grounded in diversity and pluralism, is unequivocally effective in creating inclusive and tolerant learning environments. Its systematic implementation can serve as a foundation for preventing interreligious tensions and promoting sustainable harmony.</p> <p><strong>Limitations</strong><strong>: </strong>The study is limited to secondary data, relying solely on literature without empirical validation. Hence, its conclusions may not fully capture lived classroom experiences.</p> <p><strong>Contribution</strong><strong>: </strong>This research underscores the pivotal role of multiculturalism in Islamic education as a catalyst for tolerance and harmony. It provides strategic insights for policymakers and educators to strengthen curricula and practices in diverse learning contexts.</p> Zulfan Irwansuri Copyright (c) 2025 Zulfan Irwansuri https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2025-07-12 2025-07-12 5 1 13 21 10.35912/jahidik.v5i1.4867 https://penerbitgoodwood.com/index.php/Jahidik/article/view/4970 <p><strong>Purpose</strong><strong>: </strong>This study aims to describe the implementation of the flag ceremony at SDN 2 Kalipuro and to identify the character education values embedded within this routine activity. The focus is on how ceremonial practices contribute to shaping students’ discipline, responsibility, and national identity.</p> <p><strong>Research Methodology</strong><strong>: </strong>The study employed a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation to capture the lived experiences of teachers and students. Data analysis followed the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, ensuring systematic interpretation of findings.</p> <p><strong>Results</strong><strong>: </strong>The flag ceremony is consistently held every Monday, supported by preparatory staff training on Saturdays. Findings reveal that the ceremony fosters values such as discipline, responsibility, patriotism, religiosity, curiosity, and effective communication. Nevertheless, challenges include the unpaved school yard, student tardiness, incomplete ceremonial attributes, and the absence of a fixed schedule for ceremony instructors, which occasionally disrupt the smooth implementation.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion</strong><strong>s: </strong>The flag ceremony at SDN 2 Kalipuro proves to be an effective tool for instilling character values among students. However, the sustainability and efficiency of this activity require improvements in infrastructure, time management, and organizational consistency.</p> <p>Limitations: The study is limited to one school context and does not measure the long-term behavioral impact of character values on students.</p> <p><strong>Contribution</strong><strong>: </strong>This research provides insights into the integration of character education through routine school activities. It offers a practical reference for other schools to strengthen character-building initiatives via structured ceremonies.</p> Nur Ali Yasin Copyright (c) 2025 Nur Ali Yasin https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2025-07-03 2025-07-03 5 1 1 12 10.35912/jahidik.v5i1.4970
