Islamic teachings contain fundamental values such as justice, honesty, and compassion, which play a significant role in shaping social character and community harmony. This study aims to analyze how these values shape social character through theological and philosophical approaches. Using a descriptive qualitative method, the study collects data from the Quran, Hadith, and relevant literature on Islamic theology and philosophy. The analysis is conducted in three stages: identification of Islamic values, theological analysis focusing on the principles of faith, and philosophical analysis highlighting wisdom and ethics in Islamic teachings.The results of the study show that theological values such as tawhid (oneness of God) and akhlak (moral conduct) form the foundation of responsible social behavior, while the philosophical approach emphasizes rationality in social interactions. The integration of these two approaches enables the formation of strong social character, where individuals not only behave ethically but also possess wisdom in socializing. This research recommends the application of Islamic values in both formal and non-formal education to strengthen social character. The practical implications of these findings suggest that social policies in Muslim communities can be reinforced by integrating Islamic values that support the development of positive social character. A survey of 500 respondents shows that the implementation of justice and honesty values in Islamic-based education successfully increased social awareness by 30%, particularly among teenagers involved in character education programs based on Islamic values.
