This study aims to reveal the degree of inclusion of religious values in Islamic education textbooks in Palestine, by analyzing the content of those textbooks, as the study used a descriptive analytical method. The tool of the study was a list of religious values, which included three areas, and which was applied to a sample of three textbooks of Islamic education. By statistical treatment of the data, the results of the study reveal the availability of religious values to varying degrees in the Islamic education textbooks for the fifth, sixth, seventh grades, where the field of belief values ranked first, with a high percentage, and the field of social values ranked second at a low rate, and the field moral values came in third place, with a low percentage. The study recommends conducting more studies to identify religious values in other textbooks and stages of study to provide informed feedback for review of textbooks.
