Islamic education emphasizes the formation of disciplined character, which can be developed through habituation from an early age. This study aims to describe the process of forming students’ disciplined character through daily worship habituation at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Guppi Pagerlor 2. The school was selected due to its relatively small number of students and its structured and intensive worship programs. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings indicate that the consistent and routine practice of daily worship contributes to the development of students’ discipline, particularly in terms of punctuality, compliance with rules, and responsibility. A structured guidance system, the role of teachers as educators, and the implementation of rewards and educational sanctions were identified as the main supporting factors. However, limitations in facilities and lack of family support remain challenges. Therefore, daily worship habituation plays a significant role in fostering students’ disciplined character and strengthening character education in the madrasah.

The postpartum period is a vulnerable phase often accompanied by lactation problems, particularly ineffective breastfeeding and discomfort due to breast engorgement. These conditions may reduce maternal comfort, inhibit the let-down reflex, and increase the risk of failure in exclusive breastfeeding. Therefore, safe, practical, and comprehensive non-pharmacological nursing interventions are needed. This Final Nursing Project aims to describe the implementation of cabbage leaf compresses combined with breastfeeding education to improve maternal comfort and enhance breast milk flow in postpartum mothers. This study employed a case study method using a nursing care approach involving two postpartum mothers who experienced ineffective breastfeeding and discomfort due to breast engorgement. The interventions were provided for three days and included cabbage leaf compresses and education on breastfeeding techniques. Evaluation focused on breastfeeding ability, pain level, breast condition, maternal comfort, and milk production. The results showed improvement in breastfeeding ability, indicated by the mothers’ ability to correctly demonstrate proper positioning and latch-on techniques. Infants appeared calmer during feeding, and the duration of breastfeeding increased to approximately 10 minutes per breast. Pain scores decreased from 5 to 0–3, breast tension was reduced, and maternal comfort improved. It can be concluded that the application of cabbage leaf compresses combined with breastfeeding education is effective in improving breast milk flow and maternal comfort in postpartum mothers and can be recommended as an independent nursing intervention in maternity practice.
