Abstract

The parental involvement in schools not only improve the quality of education, but also affect the child. The children of school committee or korlas (class coordinator) tend to be more confident, dare to show their existence, and dominate so that social classes are formed that feel they have power. This gives rise to structural conflict between students. This study aims to describe the structural handling of conflicts through habituation of congregational prayer (shalat berjamaah) at MI Al-Falah. The method used in this study is a case study. The data collection techniques used are in-depth interviews with teacher and student as informants, observations, and documentation. The data analysis technique uses the Miles and Huberman model with stages of reducing data, presenting data and drawing conclusions and verification. The data credibility test is carried out with a member check. The results of the research obtained are that habituation to congregational prayers can reduce structural conflicts by fostering a sense of brotherhood, familiarity, building concern, eliminating aggressiveness and social inequality, and realizing that human standing is the same before Allah SWT.
