This study aims to examine the concept of moral education in the book Al-Akhlaq Lil Banin by Shaykh 'Umar Bin Ahmad Baraja. The book is a classic work that is very popular among Islamic boarding schools and Islamic educational institutions, especially in shaping the character and morality of children. In this study, the author uses a descriptive qualitative method with a library research approach, which relies on primary data from the book Al-Akhlaq Lil Banin and secondary data from other supporting literature. The results of the study show that this book contains various moral education values, including honesty, responsibility, politeness, respect for parents and teachers, and religious obedience. These values ​​are systematically and gradually arranged in four volumes, covering basic moral education, human relations with God, social morality, and character formation. This book also excels in its narrative and practical delivery style, making it easy for students to understand and practice. This study concludes that the book Al-Akhlaq Lil Banin remains highly relevant as a reference for moral education in the modern era, particularly as a foundation for character formation for the younger generation in facing global challenges
