This study aims to optimize digital literacy in Islamic boarding schools through mentoring students in the use of Maktabah Syamilah in the Yasin Al Fadani area. The program was initiated due to limited access to valid Islamic references in remote areas, which may affect the quality of religious knowledge delivery. This community service activity focused on training young ustadz and students to utilize Maktabah Syamilah as a digital platform providing comprehensive Islamic literature, particularly tafsir references. The implementation consisted of several stages, including coordination and socialization with stakeholders, software training, interactive discussions, individual assignments, and evaluation. The results showed that 90% of participants successfully installed Arabic language support and Maktabah Syamilah version 4.0, although several participants still required technical assistance. Furthermore, 100% of participants were able to understand the main features of the software and effectively search for Quranic verses and related interpretations. The program concludes that Maktabah Syamilah training effectively improved students’ digital literacy and access to reliable Islamic references. Continuous assistance is recommended to strengthen participants’ Arabic skills and deepen their understanding of tafsir materials. This program contributes to enhancing Islamic education quality through digital technology integration.
