The formation of students' character is an important aspect of Islamic education that needs to be developed continuously through the habit of worship. One of the efforts made in the school environment is through the habit of praying zuhr in congregation. This study aims to determine the effect of the habit of performing the noon prayer in congregation on the character development of students at school. This study uses a literature review method, focusing on the use of literature from similar research journals. The results of the study indicate that the habit of performing the noon prayer in congregation has a positive and significant effect on the character development of students. There are six aspects: i) religious, ii) discipline, iii) responsibility, iv) independence, v) politeness, vi) respect for teachers and peers. These findings imply that schools need to continue to encourage congregational worship activities as part of character building for students.
