Da'wah can be done in various diverse ways, one of which is using social media. Contemporary Islamic Da'wah does not only discuss Islam. However, Islamic da'wah can discuss all aspects of human life, including politics. Technological advances in making Islamic da'wah through social media provide political education to the public, especially students. Grade XII students who are generally included in the category as beginner voters have quite a large number. Thus political education is essential for students to understand more about politics. This study aims to find out how significant the role of Islamic da'wah through social media is to provide political education to students. This study uses a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. Data collection techniques conducted by researchers were interviews, observation, documentation studies, literature studies, and field notes. The data obtained were then validated using source triangulation techniques and triangulation of data collection techniques. The results showed that (1) Students were not interested in Islamic da'wah related to politics through social media because political information on social media gave a negative stigma to students. (2) The use of social media in Islamic da'wah does not discuss much politics and only provides general knowledge about politics to students. (3) Islamic Da'wah, through social media as a means of political education, only provides general political education to students in the form of an invitation to choose excellent and trustworthy leaders by Islamic teachings. However, students feel more about political education received through family, friends, organizations, and civic education.
