This study aims to analyze the influence of madrasah principals’ digital leadership and Educational Management Information Systems on the quality of Islamic education services at B-accredited Madrasah Aliyah in the Special Capital Region of Jakarta. This study employed a quantitative approach using a survey method. The research population consisted of students in grades XI and XII from four Madrasah Aliyah, namely MA Al Hikmah South Jakarta, MAS Nurul Falah East Jakarta, MAS Al Islamiyah West Jakarta, and MAS Nurul Jalal North Jakarta. The sample consisted of 147 respondents selected using proportionate random sampling. Data were collected through a closed-ended questionnaire based on a Likert scale and analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling Partial Least Squares or SEM-PLS approach. The results show that the digital leadership of madrasah principals has a positive and significant effect on the quality of Islamic education services, with a path coefficient of 0.358, a t-statistic of 4.972, and a p-value of 0.000. The Educational Management Information System also has a positive and significant effect on the quality of Islamic education services, with a path coefficient of 0.447, a t-statistic of 6.574, and a p-value of 0.000. Simultaneously, madrasah principals’ digital leadership and Educational Management Information Systems explain 56.8% of the variation in the quality of Islamic education services, as indicated by the R-square value of 0.568. These findings indicate that improving the quality of Islamic education services is not only determined by the leadership of madrasah principals, but also by the ability of madrasahs to manage educational information systems effectively, in an integrated, transparent, and accountable manner. This study recommends strengthening the digital leadership of madrasah principals, promoting data-based decision-making, integrating academic and administrative services, and increasing service transparency based on Islamic values.
