The decision to convert to Islam is a very difficult one in their lives because it concerns their fate both in this world and the hereafter.
Through perseverance and sacrifice, they chose the Islamic faith.
addition, they face various pressures from family, relatives, and non-Muslim friends who oppose their decision, as well as the urgent demand to adopt a new religion.

because receiving guidance to embrace Islam is a great blessing, as this religion brings peace to its followers and the entire world.
The hard work and smart efforts of the Mualaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi management are expected to ensure that no more converts return to their old religion.
Considering the importance and nobility of this great trust, its implementation must be carried out in the right and proper way to instill the values of Islam until truly strong converts in their faith are created.
Literature Review 1 Islamic Religious Values Values are something abstract and values are not concrete objects, not facts, not just questions of right and wrong that require empirical proof, but rather social experiences that are desired, liked, and disliked.
Values are a collection of the most abstract moralities and beliefs or feelings considered ideal and shape a person's way of thinking, feeling, and behaving.
These values include the values of divinity, humanity, justice, moral values, and values about what is good and evil.
In general, values are divided into two groups, namely conscience values (Genuis & Lipp, 2013.
McConnell & Savulescu, 2.
and giving values (Beatty.
Kahle, & Homer, 1.
Conscience values are values that exist within humans and then develop into behaviors and the way we treat others.
the same time, the value of giving is a value that needs to be practiced or given.
Meanwhile, linguistically, the word mullah comes from the word alfalfa, which means shayyararahu alifan, meaning to tame, to make, or to render something tame.
Linguistically, almuallafah qulubuhum means people whose hearts are tamed, subdued, and Because what is subdued is the heart, the method used is to gain e-ISSN: 2715-4572 p-ISSN: 2716-1439 International Journal of Contemporary Islamic Education Vol.

In classical fiqh studies, converts are classified into four categories: first, a Muslim convert is someone who has embraced Islam but whose intention and faith need strengthening.
Second, for those who have embraced Islam, their intentions and faith are already quite strong, and they are also prominent figures in their community.
Third, a new Muslim who has the ability to anticipate the evil coming from the infidels.
Fourth, a convert who has the ability to anticipate crimes coming from groups opposing zakat obligations.
2 The Importance of Cultivating and Quality of Religious Values The cultivation, instillation, and strengthening of the quality of Islamic values are activities carried out consciously by humans (Rankin et al.
, whether individually or in groups, to teach Islamic teachings to attain the pleasure of Allah SWT.
Therefore, the instillation and strengthening of Islamic values are not merely about conveying the message of Islam but also about instilling a sense of awareness in society, such as a sense of brotherhood, upholding monotheism, justice, and creating obedient Muslims who follow all of His commands and avoid all of His prohibitions.
The guidance of converts is part of Islamic education because, within this guidance.
Islamic teachings are instilled in the Muallaf, as someone who has recently embraced Islam as the truth, certainly often faces various problems.
These issues include weak faith or a lack of understanding of their new religion.
addition, they also face other complex issues, such as being expelled and ostracized from their families or communities, as well as intimidation from people who do not like the new religion they have adopted.
The lack of community further weakens their faith and makes them less confident in the new Not only that, but the lack of attention from religious institutions towards the converts also becomes one of the obstacles to their delving deeper into the new religion.
Seeing this, the converts need someone who can guide, instill, and strengthen Islamic values in them so they do not feel alone in facing all their It is hoped that with such guidance, all the problems they face can be overcome or at least the solutions can lighten their burdens.
Helping converts to Islam is one of the duties of Muslims that should not be After all, the converts are our brothers and sisters whose fate and religious needs must be taken into Their still fragile faith must not waver due to the many trials they must face in the process of converting to Islam.
Methodology This study used a qualitative multicase study method.

Data verification was carried out by comparing data from three sources: observation, indepth interviews, and written document Result and Discussion 1 Instilling Islamic Values Several methods of instilling and strengthening the quality of Islamic religious values for converts to Islam are as follows:
Personal Approach Method The results of observations at the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi show that the personal approach method (Fox, 1.
is one of the main strategies in guiding converts to Islam.
In this method, the dai interacts directly with each individual convert to Islam through personal dialogue, which aims to provide understanding and solutions to the problems they face, as well as strengthening religious values.
One of the main focuses of this approach is to help converts face the challenges of religious perception, such as how to respond to criticism, repent after committing sins, increase pious deeds, and remain strong in the face of disaster.
This approach is carried out sincerely so that Islamic values can be accepted with a calm and conscious heart by converts to Islam.
Lecture Method The lecture method (Behr, 1988.
Sutherland, 1.
is also one of the da'wah approaches used by preachers who are members of the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) to guide converts to Islam.
With a calm and coherent delivery style, this lecture is designed to be easily understood by the mind and to touch the feelings of the The preachers strive to provide appropriate religious knowledge and build a strong belief in the values taught (Kasim & Yusoff, 2.

Apart from that.
MCIP Central Sulawesi also occasionally invites religious teachers from outside the region who have strong religious knowledge to provide Islamic The main task of the mentors at MCIP Central Sulawesi is to build good relationships with converts and increase their awareness so that they continue to participate in the coaching program.
This is important because converts need to understand Islamic teachings, especially in the discipline of carrying out worship, such as the five obligatory prayers.
Coaches must also have broad insight into the material that will be conveyed to converts, especially those related to morals, creeds, and worship.
This ability is one of the reasons converts trust the Islamic mentors at MCIP to guide them toward a better understanding of In providing guidance, you must have a method and provide Islamic guidance services that run effectively.
MCIP divides it into two forms of service, namely, special and general services.
Special Services Namely converts to Islam who have complex problems, such as being expelled and ostracized from their family and environment, as well as experiencing intimidation from people who do not agree with the new religion they are General Services Namely converts who do not have problems with their new religion, so it is easier for them to learn and deepen their knowledge of the Islamic religion.
informan said in an interview:
"In terms of cultivating and strengthening the quality of Islamic religious values, we have two services, sir.
One service is for general converts to Islam, or those who convert to Islam who have no problems with their new religion.
Then the second is to provide guidance in cultivating religious Islam for special converts.
These particular converts are converts who have complex problems, such as being expelled and ostracized from their families, as well as experiencing intimidation from people who don't like their new religion.
For specific converts, the approach is more individual because extra guidance is necessary to achieve it according to expectations, while for general converts, the approach is to use a group approach.
The interview above show that the service method for instilling and strengthening the quality of Islamic religious values provided to specific converts to Islam is different from that of Instilling strengthening the quality of Islamic religious values is carried out through guidance, which basically goes through e-ISSN: 2715-4572 p-ISSN: 2716-1439 International Journal of Contemporary Islamic Education Vol.

Identification of Convert Cases In the process of implementing Islamic guidance at the Indonesian Peduli Muallaf Center Central Sulawesi, the counselors identify what problems the converts face and record them.
This aims to find out which converts to Islam have complex problems so that the supervisor can focus attention on converts who need to be treated further.
As stated by an informant as follows:
"First, we have to know what problems the converts face.
Usually, when I, as a guide, find out about the problems of the converts, it is previously contacted me first, especially converts who have complex problems such as being thrown out of the family, abandoned, or making the decision to convert to Islam secretly.
Usually, even if they are fellow converts, they don't want the problem to be known to others.
But if there are problems such as difficulty reading Arabic letters or prayers, we discuss them together and provide guidance.
Motivation, and advice.
So that the convert can be enthusiastic and not give up.
Based on the interviews with the supervisors of the Indonesian Peduli Muallaf Center Central Sulawesi, after identifying the problem, the next activity was to provide an understanding of guidance, instilling and strengthening the quality of Islamic religious values, as implementation at the Indonesian Peduli Muallaf Center (MCIP) Sulawesi Middle.
Diagnosis The stage before diagnosis is after identifying the problem, then continuing with diagnosis to determine the problems faced by converts based on their background.
Problems that converts often face include converts who cannot read Arabic letters, recognize Arabic letters, and memorize prayer readings.
this step, the supervisor needs to make observations regarding the background of why the problem arises.

Here's the thing.
Sir, in mentoring converts at the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi, the steps in the mentoring process include teaching or education, encouraging the practice of Islamic teachings to the converts, providing exemplary behavior, offering motivation, and there are rules that the converts must adhere So, that is the strategy I have been applying in guiding converts, more or less like that.
Sir.
The answers from the interview with the Muallaf Coach at the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi indicate that the steps to strengthen the quality of instilling Islamic values can also be understood as all means and efforts to address specific targets in order to achieve the expected results to the fullest extent.
If these steps are related to coaching, it can be interpreted as the process of determining methods and efforts to address coaching targets in specific situations and conditions in order to achieve optimal coaching goals.
From the above explanation, it can be seen that the development steps implemented to strengthen the quality of instilling religious values at the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi are divided into five stages that can be classified as follows:
Teaching Guidance and teaching at MCIP Central Sulawesi is almost the same as teaching at institutions that guide other converts to Islam.

All coaching activity processes are continued by carrying out congregational prayers at the Al-Muhajirin Mosque, and other habits such as reading the Koran and sunnah fasting every Thursday.
Exemplary As stated by a mentor for converts to Islam at the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli Central Sulawesi:
"At the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi, apart from there being a special program for coaching converts, there are also other programs, such as mass circumcisions, religious Islamic All members of the Indonesian Concerned Muallaf Center (MCIP) Central Sulawesi attended each of these activities.

Motivation Motivation is encouragement from other people or from the individual Motivation is really needed in fostering and guiding converts to Islam in the early stages of embracing and getting to know the religion of Islam.
Because becoming a convert to Islam is a sacred decision and must be believed in wholeheartedly, motivation continues to be given from the beginning of coaching to converts at the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi, both directly and indirectly.
Regulation The application of the rules is indeed strict, but the results of the rules that have been formulated will have a good impact on the coaching process.
Likewise, in coaching converts to Islam in the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi environment, the rules are not made to make it difficult for people to learn Islam but as an effort to see the seriousness of potential converts in learning Islam.
As stated by Ustadz Ahsan, as a converts coach at the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi:
Every institution or organization certainly has rules.
One of the rules at the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi is that, before taking the pledge .

Still, they are an effort to make muallaf more serious in following the coaching process.
At least the result of the muallaf coaching is that they can perform the five daily prayers properly and correctly.
This will certainly have a positive impact on the muallaf themselves.
The implementation of muallaf coaching in the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi organization is divided into program, monthly program, and annual Weekly program A weekly program is a program that is implemented within a period of five meetings every week.
The weekly program includes: study of the book of Abdul Mufrod, study of Muslimah fiqh, study of the book of tauhid, study of the book of jamiul ulum wal hikmah, and bidayatul hidayah by Imam Al-Ghazali.

second, umrah for active muallaf.
Ramadan safari.
fourth, tabligh akbar.
fifth, breaking the fast together with fostered muallaf.
Inhibiting Factors Several programs that have been planned by the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi, namely:
Distance Distance is one of the obstacles faced by the converts, namely because one convert is far from another, and sometimes other limitations also become obstacles to participating in coaching, making it difficult to unite them in the coaching process.
The confession of the convert Mrs.
I Made Ariani:
The distance between one convert and another is indeed an obstacle.
Sir.
For example, we want to do it at the Al-Muhajirin Mosque.
I am from East Palu, and sometimes I think about it because the place is far away, so I tell the Mentor to study alone at home, but even studying at home.
I feel the When I study, there is a mentor who corrects me if I am wrong, yes, if I study at home, we don't know what is right or wrong, and I ask the Mentor to hold coaching in mosques near my house so that it is accessible to me.
Funding Funds are one of the most important things because they are the most important thing in every activity at the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi.
because of limited funding, the process of mentoring converts requires a lot of funding.
However, that is not a problem because sometimes God's help is very close.
The following is an interview with the Muallaf Mentor of MCIP Central Sulawesi:
We from the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi sometimes lack funds to fund our activities.
Still.
God's help.
Masya Allah, can come from anywhere, and the funds that usually come in to help our activities come from the musician.
also spend our personal money to fund our activities at this Muallaf Center.
Our concept is not to force the musician to we only send in the WA group that there are activities A and B.
for those who want to participate, channel it to the account number listed like that.
Sir.

Intimidation The next obstacle felt by converts is as stated by Anita:
The next obstacle felt by converts is when we, as converts, get discriminated against by people who do not like our new religion.
Some are fired from their jobs, and some are even thrown out of their families, so that these converts feel like strangers, think they have no one, they do not believe in Islam because by embracing Islam, the closest people distance themselves, so we need rehabilitation so that we remain confident in our choice to embrace Islam.
Based on the results of the interview with Mrs.
Anita as a convert show that intimidation and discrimination from family and closest friends who do not want Mrs.
Anita to become a convert are real, so Mrs.
Anita was forced to be ostracized in her family.
The Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi is ready to help if something unwanted happens to Mrs.
Anita.
Facilities and infrastructure Guidance services in a social institution absolutely require facilities and infrastructure.
Meanwhile, the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi does not yet have adequate facilities and infrastructure, the facilities and infrastructure used are still at the Al-Muhajirin Mosque and sometimes at the homes of converts or at the secretariat of the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli (MCIP) Central Sulawesi.
As conveyed by Ustadz Ahsan as the Mentor at the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli Central Sulawesi:
Yes, that's right.
Our facilities and infrastructure are not yet adequate like other institutions, but we still use the Al Muhajirin Mosque as a place for study and other coaching.
God willing, in the future, we will infrastructure to support each of our programs at this Muallaf Center.
Based on the results of the interview with Ustadz Ahsan as the Mentor at the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli Central Sulawesi, the facilities and infrastructure at the Muallaf Center Indonesia Peduli Central Sulawesi are not yet adequate, so programs that require a fairly large place or for mass mobilization still collaborate with other NGOs.

The steps in guidance include: Islamic teachings, habituation such as congregational prayers and Qur'an learning, role modeling through activities like mass circumcision and community service, motivation in all activities, and the implementation of rules that require converts to attend at least 12 training sessions to receive a .
