The rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the increasing circulation of religious information through digital media have created a growing need for students to critically assess and verify Islamic information. This study aims to examine the effects of AI literacy and digital religious literacy on Islamic information verification skills among Islamic Religious Education (PAI) students. A quantitative approach with an explanatory survey design was employed. The population consisted of 280 PAI students at Universitas An-Nur Lampung across seven classes, with participants selected using proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The findings indicate that AI literacy has a positive effect on students’ Islamic information verification skills, while digital religious literacy also has a positive effect. Simultaneously, both variables contribute to students’ ability to verify Islamic information. These findings contribute to the development of Islamic education literacy by highlighting the importance of integrating AI literacy, digital religious literacy, and critical information evaluation into PAI learning. The study suggests that PAI instruction should strengthen students’ digital competence and media literacy through source evaluation, fact-checking, and critical examination of digital Islamic information.
