Qualitatively, this study explores Ibn Qayyim al-Jauziyyah's thoughts on implementing Islamic Religious Education (PAI) subjects to improve students' noble character. Through descriptive-analytical presentation, Ibn Qayyim al-Jauziyyah's thoughts show a close relationship to the learning at State Elementary School (SDN) 02 Tahunan Grobogan, Central Java. The success of learning cannot be separated from what has been initiated by Ibn Qayyim al-Jauziyyah, that PAI lessons must go beyond mere mastery of sacred texts and religious laws but must arrive at the emergence of noble morals and the ability to apply them in everyday life. Here, it appears that it is essential to integrate the principles of religious values into students' lives to achieve a harmonious life, both in the world and in the hereafter. The relevance of Ibn Qayyim al-Jauziyyah's thinking also appears in three ways: First, the approach applied in learning is by understanding the conditions of students. Second, learning is carried out by competent and noble teachers. Moreover, third is the importance of involving parents and the community/society in the education process.
