Abstract
This research aims to explore the experiences of transgender individuals in their self-adjustment within Islamic boarding schools, commonly known as pesantrens. It examines the challenges faced by transgender individuals, the strategies employed by pesantrens to facilitate their self-adjustment, and the role of culture and religion in shaping their experiences. The study also investigates the significance of social support networks in assisting transgender individuals during their journey of self-adjustment within pesantrens. Through qualitative interviews with transgender individuals and founders of pesantrens, this research sheds light on the intersection of gender identity and religious beliefs. The findings highlight the importance of understanding, acceptance, and support in promoting the well-being and successful adjustment of transgender individuals in pesantrens. This research contributes to the discourse on inclusivity and empowerment within religious educational institutions
