INTRODUCTION
Education as one of the needs that can not be separated from life and human life. What is meant by needs is a social function, enlightenment, guidance, a means of growth that prepares and opens up and forms life discipline (Muslimin & Kartiko, 2020). This brings the understanding that no matter how simple a human community is, it still needs education. In a general sense, the life of the community will be determined by the extent of educational activities in it. Because education is naturally a necessity of human life (M. A. Abdullah, 2017;Agung, 2018).
Education is an effort to improve oneself in all its aspects, including activities that involve teachers and those that do not involve teachers (educators), including formal and informal education, aspects that are fostered by education are all aspects of personality, so that the desired characters are formed. With education, it is expected to produce quality and responsible human beings and be able to anticipate the future (Tafsir, 2012).
Islamic religious education is a conscious and planned effort in preparing students to recognize, understand, live up to faith, fear, and have noble character in practicing the teachings of Islam from the main source of the holy book Al Qur'an and hadith, through guidance, teaching, training activities. , and the use of experience (L. Abdullah, 2018;Abdurrahman, 2016;Amri et al., 2019). Accompanied by demands to respect adherents of other religions in society until the realization of national unity and integrity.
It is proper for educators or teachers to reflect on themselves and listen to various criticisms submitted to Islamic religious education (IRE) teachers. As stated by Mochtar Buchori in (Muhaimin, 2012)that religious education still fails because its educational practice only pays attention to cognitive aspects and ignores affective aspects and as a result there is a gap between religious knowledge and practice. So it is not able to form moral individuals, even though the core of religious education is moral education.
Seeing the phenomena above will be a challenge for Islamic religious education in schools. As stated in the standard of competence and basic competence at the MTs/SMP level that religious education is intended to increase spiritual potential and shape students to become human beings who believe and fear God Almighty and have noble character (Baharun & Ummah, 2018;Berkowitz & Bier, 2016). One of the factors that play an important role in the development of religious culture is the active role of the school community of teachers, employees, students and school principals. However, as school leaders, school principals have a fairly large share and role because in the hands of the principal these policies are made and then implemented by all school members (Ilmi et al., 2021;Sobri, 2019).
Liphan James H., et.al in (Wahjosumidjo, 1999) said that the principal's success study shows that the principal is someone who determines the center point and rhythm of a school. Even further, the study concluded that "school success is the success of the principal". Some of the principals are described as people who have high expectations for staff and students, principals are those who know a lot about their duties and those who set the rhythm for their school (Asmendri, 2014;Brooks & Sungtong, 2016;Fitriani & Hakim, 2021).
The principal as the person responsible for the implementation of education and teaching in educational institutions, must have the readiness and ability to generate personal morale (Ariyanti et al., 2019;Brooks & Mutohar, 2018;Nurulloh et al., 2020). A leader must also be able to create a climate and atmosphere that is conducive, safe, comfortable, peaceful, fun, and full of enthusiasm in working for workers and students (Fitriani, 2017). So that the implementation of teaching and learning activities can run orderly and smoothly in achieving the expected goals. For this reason, every school principal should have a strong leadership role in the sense of being able to influence, guide, coordinate, and mobilize others who have to do with the development of education and teaching so that the activities carried out can be more effective and efficient in achieving educational and teaching goals (Fatoni, 2017;Fauzi, 2017).
Al-Qur'an reading activities are also included in extracurricular activities, which are specifically for students who have special abilities, talents and interests. The activity is in the form of the art of reading the Qur'an (recitations and tartils of the Qur'an) (Kosim et al., 2019;Prayoga et al., 2019). In addition to the above, the religious culture at MTs Sunan Giri, Probolinggo City, which researchers have currently observed is that school residents always reflect Islamic values. This can be seen from all school residents whose female teachers, administrative staff, and students always wear Muslim clothes (hijab). Activities that describe the religious culture run continuously and in addition there are many other temporal religious activities, such as the fast Ramadan Islamic boarding school, commemoration of Islamic holidays, Al-Qur'an reading competition (MTQ between classes), and Islamic art.
Therefore, the role of educational institutions as cultivators of noble religious and national values needs to protect and seek more effective methods for the success of religious education in this country. One of the schools that has developed it is MTs Sunan Giri Probolinggo City, the school is able to develop religious learning well in its school environment, making it a tradition to read the Qur'an for 7-10 minutes before the first hour starts. Besides that, reading activities of the Qur'an in the form of joint yasinan are carried out every Friday in the first hour and are attended by all students, teachers and employees.
The religious learning described at MTs Sunan Giri Probolinggo City can run and become entrenched in the school environment. It is the idea of a school principal who is fully supported by teachers, students and all school members. The principal's idea was conveyed to the religious education teachers and they responded by organizing and programming the religious activities on a scheduled basis. But religious education teachers feel the need to involve teachers from other fields of study to form a kind of joint commitment to facilitate the development of a culture of reading the Qur'an in schools.
The researchers observed that the principal of MTs Sunan Giri Probolinggo City had high intellectual abilities, emotional maturity and religious awareness. Besides that, the principal of MTs Sunan Giri Probolinggo City is also an ustadz, preacher, and also the Chairperson of the Probolingg city level TPQ management so that the school principal is an example who is able to mobilize and encourage school residents to have religious awareness that is cultured in the school environment.
