INTRODUCTION
Islamic Boarding School, one form of Islamic educational institution, is a crucial element of a person's life and is a strategic aspect of a country. The nature of education is complex, dynamic, and contextual Zakariyah et al., 2022). Education brings humans to reach the optimal level of development according to their potential as humans, according to their natural and human characteristics (Carroll-Alfano, 2019). Education not only includes intellectual development but is more emphasized in developing the human personality as a whole so that it becomes a responsible adult human being. Education is a human effort (educator) with full awareness and responsibility to guide humans to reach maturity and have noble character (Sagala, 2007).
Islamic boarding schools have various essential roles in improving the quality of human resources. As is generally known, pesantren do not only provide technical knowledge and skills but what is far more important is to instill moral and religious values (Hastasari et al., 2022). The philosophy of pesantren education is based on a meaningful relationship between humans and Allah SWT. This relationship has meaning if it is charged or produces beauty and majesty (Ansori, 2020). The worship carried out by all teachers and students at Islamic boarding schools is prioritized in seeking knowledge, managing lessons, developing themselves, and developing activities with students and the community (Fauzi, 2018).
As an Islamic educational institution, Pesantren selectively aims to make its students as independent human beings who are expected to become leaders of the people towards the pleasure of Allah SWT. Therefore, pesantren is tasked with producing humans who are indeed experts in religion and science and have noble character (Assa'idi, 2021).
The Islamic boarding school is one of the icons and characteristics of his religious life. It is also the final bastion of religion, as an educational institution that is the center of scientific transformation for the younger and older generations left behind by the messengers of the previous Prophet. Initially, the lodge became a center of knowledge in various scientific disciplines, both in religion and general science (Hanafi et al., 2021;Ihsan et al., 2021).
Pesantren is a characteristic that other Islamic educational institutions do not own, Islamic schools or madrasas. Anyone understands that pesantren is closely related to the figure of a kyai who is a role model for the community (Farid & Lamb, 2020). Therefore, any changes made by the pesantren should start from the wishes of the pesantren themselves. Even if there are ideas from outside, they do not color the main essence. However, boarding schools do not have to close themselves, and they are open to following the times' demands (Hastasari et al., 2022).
The Amanatul Ummah Islamic Boarding School is an international boarding school that builds morals and produces intelligent santri (*student in Islamic Boarding School) and can graduate students who excel in the desired field and print al-Quran memorization, the Amanatul Ummah boarding school was founded 15 years, and the number of students is 10,000 from various provinces and country (Hasanah, 2021). From various students from provinces, countries, and different characters, humans are created in the diversity of life. He is born from different tribes, clans, and social backgrounds. As social beings, humans can also not carry out their life cycle without other humans. At least he needs a friend.
In instilling morals in every child, parents do not work alone. Still, they need people they think to understand more about religion (such as kyai, ustadz/ustadzah, and so on) to educate their children because every parent has higher expectations for their child. Children are also one of the State's guarded assets so that children are not wrong in their daily interactions. The role of parents here is needed to form a good personality for children, including instilling morality in every child. In addition to children as state assets, children are also a mandate from God that must be protected (Hasanah, 2021;Masitah & Sitepu, 2021).
To keep children away from harmful things in themselves, someone needs to instill good morals. The first person must play an important role in instilling morals in the family or parents. After parents can instill good morals in their children, each parent should supervise how they interact with their friends and whether the surrounding environment supports them in changing their children's morality (Korotaeva & Chugaeva, 2019).
Based on the description above, the authors are motivated to conduct a study to see and examine how the learning management used by an Amanatul Ummah Islamic Boarding School in moral subjects. Then researchers can see whether there is a significant influence on the students' behavior at the Islamic Boarding School. For this reason, researchers are interested in conducting research under the title "The Implementation Strategy of Islamic Boarding School Management MA C1 to build Santri Morals in Amanatul Ummah Islamic Boarding Schools".

According to Suharismi (Arikunto, 1983), the object of research is the nature of the state of an object, person, or object that is the center of attention and research target. The nature of the situation in question can be in the form of nature, quantity, and quality which can be in the form of behavior, activities, opinions, views, judgments, pro-contra attitudes, sympathies and antipathies, inner states, and can also be in the form of processes. In this study, the object of this research is the Implementation Strategy of the MA CI Islamic Boarding School Management to Build Santri Morals at the Amanatul Ummah Islamic Boarding School.

Collecting observation information as a data collection technique has specific characteristics compared to other approaches, namely interviews (Sugiyono, 2008). Sutrisno Hadi (1986) suggests that observation is a complex process composed of various biological and psychological processes. Two of the most important are the processes of observation and memory. Observation is used to observe the symptoms that appear on the research object. This observation is used to obtain data in the field, including the location and condition of the boarding school for students and students. The interview method is a question and answer process in research that takes place orally in which two or more people face to face and listen directly to information or statements.

Data analysis in qualitative research is carried out before entering the field, while in the area, and after finishing. In this case, Nasution (1988) states, "The analysis has started since formulating and explaining the problem, before going into the field. Data analysis becomes a guide for subsequent researchers until, if possible, the theory is grounded. However, data analysis is focused on during the field process and data collection in qualitative research. Data analysis is interpreting every data and information to answer the problem formulation.

The Kyai's Role in Islamic Boarding Schools Is a Charismatic Figure Kyai is a charismatic figure where the kyai gives authority as a leader, and the example of the kyai wherein his daily life provides an excellent example of exemplary managing institutions and teaching religious knowledge, among them are taught his students to pray at night, Congregational prayers and recitation of books with isitiqomah make the kyai a role model for students and administrators at the boarding school. The kyai has extensive religious knowledge and obedience to the kyai, which makes the ai a charismatic figure.
Service In Two Years Acceleration. MA CI is a particular intelligent program with a comprehensive and holistic learning system. And with a learning acceleration system that is continuously reviewed and developed by education experts. This program allows brilliant students to complete their study period faster to only two years for each level.
Kyai monitoring or monitoring of students where students' activities are monitored always by the kyai. Discipline where all students are required to carry out all activities on time and disciplined at 3 o'clock, they have been awakened to carry out night prayers led by the kyai directly and carry out five daily prayers in congregation, attend dawn recitations, read isitgosah and Yasin every day to open insight and intelligence for students because, in the discipline of following all the activities that are available during the dawn recitation, there are pieces of advice from the kyai as well as other motivations and lessons in book science.
Escort to the students, namely during the morning apple, all the teachers/ustadz attended the morning apple and were followed by the students led by the kyai directly or the teacher/ustadz after the apples, then the students studied in class and the teacher/ustadz who guided the students in teaching and learning, as well as escorts in the recitation of the book on In the afternoon, every activity has an escort from the teacher/ustadz.
With the night prayer system, the management of the Amanatul Ummah Islamic Boarding School institution to build the morals of the students is one them trying to pray at night where the kyai explains that at night prayers there are drops of water that drip down our bodies which will effectively lubricate our bodies when praying the night and our heartbeat when performing night prayers smooth blood flow accompanied by prayers and self-much for the students and many Islamic boarding schools are advanced compared to Pondok Amantul Ummah but with night prayers that make it suitable from other institutions.
There is an approach to students. Namely, the administrators do it by bringing in student dormitories, making familiarity with students and accompanying their every activity so that students feel that the existence of ustzah exists and try to understand the character of students so that if there is a warning if students are guilty, they will not be offended and can understand from mistakes which are made. Because not all students are from good families, there are no family problems, even some of them are from broken home families, so the parents don't pay much attention and don't care about the condition of the children who at that time needed it the role of parents. Hence, the part of management here is to carry out an approach with students.
In the Amanatul Ummah learning system, students should not stop asking questions before they understand to understand the lessons given by the teacher. The teacher should not stop explaining until the students understand. In the teaching system, the teacher must not stop explaining before the students understand so that the students can understand the learning that has been given.
Implementation, namely the evening prayer, is management to build morals at the Amanatul Ummah Islamic boarding school. The night prayer with istiqomah is carried out by the kyai, the cleric ustadz students, at 3 o'clock. Kyai and Ustadz, in the implementation of night prayers, are all monitored by the management so that the evening prayers are carried out properly, and all students are present.
Discipline where at 3 o'clock the students have been woken up by the administrator on duty and immediately bring them to the students' rooms and what if the students are awake then the rooms of each student are locked by the administrator so no one is in the room anymore until they follow the dawn prayer and the recitation of the abah kyai until it's finished.
Forming Intelligence, namely by holding recitations every day and reading istigosah, and yasinan every day at dawn will increase Intelligence. Because there are many virtues at the beginning because of the Prophet SAW. Pray for his people at dawn Ya Allah. in the early morning hours is an effective place to study.
There are penalties or sanctions for students who violate the rules of the cottage. Students who break the rules will be punished according to the violations that the institution has made if the breach is still light, then first with a warning, memorizing the verse if the breach is severe, then the kyai who cares for the boarding school will go directly to give sanctions, namely students who violate will be transferred to other schools.
The existence of students who are unstable because the high school level still has no stance, they are still easily influenced and easy to change attitudes or are called unstable because there are students when there are good clerics and when there are no clerics the attitudes and behavior of students are not good at the high school level.
From the existing regulations where the regulations are strictly prohibited for students such as bringing electronic devices (cellphones, mp3, laptops, sharp tools, knives, razors, machetes}, carrying/using cigarettes and illegal drugs, dating, fighting, tauran , bullying, fighting against teachers/managers, taking goods or objects that are not their right and destroying pesantren facilities. The violations that students often do are bringing cell phones, smoking, and leaving the cottage. And the punishment that students get is to leave the cottage bald and enter the violation record, more than 3 times the stall is issued, if you bring a cellphone, the cellphone will be destroyed and enter the violation record book, smoking bald and entered the violation logbook.
As a student, one must reflect good attitudes and behavior. However, there are still those who cannot reflect good attitudes and behavior as a santri. Students are still indifferent to the cottage environment and are less sensitive to the environment. Meetings with kyai to evaluate students where this evaluation continues to be followed by the teacher/ustadz every day, both evaluations per day, weekly, monthly, and even yearly assessment in the absence of students. The evaluation of each activity that has been carried out can be reviewed how the development of students and what needs to be improved.
The obstacles to implementing the MA CI boarding school management to build the morals of students at the Amanatul Ummah Islamic Boarding School are: (1) the students are still unstable. The students lack awareness in participating in activities to be first exposed to oprakoprak. Some are still sleepy in the recitation taking place during the recitation. There is even those in the bathroom, (2) lack of students in applying morals in daily life.
The solution for implementing the management of the MA CI boarding school to build the morals of the students at the Amanatul Ummah Islamic Boarding School is: (1) giving understanding to the students to participate in all activities in an orderly manner without having to be supervised when there is a good kyai, and there is no better kyai. karimah and takdim towards the kyai and instilling morality in daily life prioritize intellectuals, but the character is also essential for a student's identity to be balanced. A santri must have devotion to kyai and teachers so that later his knowledge will be helpful if he leaves the cottage later (2) teachers provide in addition to moral education lessons but also must provide examples of exemplary ethical behavior.
As an effort to solve the problem of how to implement the management strategy of the MA CI boarding school to build the morals of the students at the Amanatul Ummah Islamic Boarding School, it is shown explicitly for teachers (ustadz/ustadzah), namely: The strategy of implementing the management of the MA CI boarding school to build the morals of the students at the Amanatul Ummah Islamic Boarding School so that they are more focusing on the aspects of morality and improving supervision, always instilling exemplary good habits to students.
