The purpose of this study is to explore the implementation of the values of the Qur'an contained in Surah Al-Insyirah verses 5–6 in strengthening character education at the Madrasah Ibtidaiyah level. This study focuses on how the concepts of patience, resilience, and optimism taken from the meaning of the verse "Indeed, with hardship comes ease" are internalized in school activities to shape the moral and spiritual development of students. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through observation, interviews with teachers and students, and documentation of learning activities. Data analysis used the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that the internalization of the values of Surah Al-Insyirah verses 5–6 was carried out through three main strategies, namely habituation in school culture, integration in Islamic Religious Education subjects, and teacher role modeling. These strategies were proven to contribute significantly to improving students' attitudes of patience, responsibility, and gratitude. This study is not only descriptive but also develops a conceptual framework for a revelation-based pedagogical model that places the values of the Qur'an as the basis for character building. These findings expand Islamic education theory by showing how Qur'anic verses can be formulated into applicable pedagogical principles in the context of madrasahs. Implicitly, this study contributes to contemporary Islamic education practices by offering a reflective and habitual learning approach based on Qur'anic values, which can strengthen the spiritual, moral, and social dimensions of students in the modern era.
