This study also investigates Islamic Religious Education (PAI) activities in using technology that inspires learning through social media applications. Design/methods/approach – This study used a literature research method with a qualitative approach. Research data was collected from a variety of sources, including books, scientific journals, proceedings, and other relevant publications. This study used a data analysis paradigm that included data collection, reduction, presentation, and conclusion. Findings – The researcher obtained five (5) types of social media applications used by PAI teachers. The study is also restricted by vulnerable years limited to 2019-2023.
