This study aims to analyze the internalization of Islamic Work Ethics in vocational education and its relationship to the formation of Muslim students’ work readiness. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed at SMK Annuroniyah Kemadu. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, observations, and documentation, and analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, comprising data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The study focuses on the processes through which Islamic Work Ethics are introduced, understood, internalized, habituated, and manifested, as well as the pedagogical and institutional mechanisms that facilitate or constrain these processes. The values examined include amanah, honesty, responsibility, discipline, diligence, ihsan, and itqan. The study is expected to contribute to Islamic education scholarship by explaining the internalization of Islamic work ethics as a process of transforming religious values into moral dispositions and behaviours relevant to students’ work readiness in vocational education.
