Law that is just and in line with social values adopted by society. This role is increasingly relevant in facing modern challenges, where understanding and application of the teachings of the Qur'an have an important role in the formation of legal norms in Muslim society. As a holy book, the Qur'an provides moral and ethical guidelines that form the basis for the Islamic legal system. Through its various verses, the Qur'an establishes the principles of justice, goodness, and social responsibility that influence individual behavior and interactions between members of society. The purpose of this study is to explore the values of Islamic law related to the role of the Qur'an in the formation of legal norms.

The results of this study indicate that the application of Islamic law is largely determined by the Qur'an and Sunnah. Laws taken from sources other than the Qur'an and Sunnah will not last long, because the law is made by humans. So that potentially whoever is in power is the one who determines the law. In addition, the Qur'an also provides concrete rules regarding aspects of life, such as marriage, inheritance, and crime, which are then interpreted and applied in the context of sharia law.

This community service activity aims to introduce the advantages of Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (MI) compared to Elementary Schools (SD) and the Paket A Program, particularly in the context of student learning and character development. Madrasah Ibtidaiyah excels in the integration of religious and general education, supporting the holistic development of student character. Based on various studies, including the development of gamification-based literacy media in MI and the internalization of multicultural values in MI, MI has proven to be more effective in instilling important religious and social values at an early age.

Therefore, this activity aims to increase public understanding of MI's advantages in shaping student character, skills, and socio-economic intelligence, while emphasizing the importance of religious education in supporting the moral and ethical development of children.
