Information and communication technology has made it easier to access knowledge globally, enabling education to be more open and inclusive. However, these changes also pose challenges in ensuring that the values embodied in education remain relevant to the needs of the times. Islamic education, as a vital component in shaping the character and morals of the younger generation, has adapted to these developments while maintaining the fundamental principles of religious teachings (Abdullahi Maidugu & Adamu Tanko Isah, 2. The principles of Islamic law serve as the primary foundation for managing education amidst the increasingly rapid flow of globalization (A. Supriatna et al. , 2. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure that the application of these principles is not eroded by changing times, and that technology is used to strengthen the goals of Islamic education. Islamic legal principles in education play a crucial role in upholding sharia values in the learning process (Jinan et al. , 2. Principles such as justice, trustworthiness, and responsibility in education are inseparable from religious teachings (Uyuni & Program, 2. Every decision in the management of Islamic education must consider these values to ensure adherence to the correct path (Setiawan, 2. In the context of Islamic education management, these principles serve as guidelines for decision-making, including the selection of technology for teaching and learning (Elihami et al. , 2. For example, the use of digitalbased learning applications must consider security, ethics, and compliance with Islamic Therefore, even when using technology, the learning process must remain effective and adhere to the highly respected sharia values. The use of digital technology in Islamic education management presents various opportunities and challenges that must be managed wisely (Shofiyyah et al. , 2. On the one Implementation Of Islamic Legal Principles In Islamic Education Management In The Digital Era - Dhani Sudirman. Ricki Faisal. Hasan Al Banna. Rendi Atnanto.
