Internalization of Islamic Education Values for Children with Special Needs

Abstract

Children with special needs are those who have temporary or permanent special needs that require more intense educational services. This becomes very important for students, especially Children with Special Needs to be able to practice religious values in their lives, so that the goals of Islamic religious education are achieved. Physical, mental, social, intellectual and or social disabilities also have the same rights in terms of education, meaning that they are entitled to educational services so that they can carry out their functions as servants of Allah and in the end they will be able to have awareness and responsibility. This study aims to determine how to internalize the values of Islamic education in children with special needs. This research is a qualitative research, namely library research that uses books and other literature as the main topic. Descriptive analysis is needed for qualitative research. The results of the study reveal that efforts to familiarize the values of Islamic Religious Education in children with special needs provide examples continuously and then get used to it every day regularly, repeatedly and can also be habituation that is spontaneous. This continuous guidance in doing something is expected to become an inherent habit for students to get used to, including children with special needs, even though doing so requires a process, given the ability to accept children with different special needs.
