Islamic Boarding Schools (Pondok Pesantren) which have large mass of santri (students) have a strategic position to repress the dissemination of mentioned negative content. The applied method is optimizing social media as a channel for spreading positive content with the spirit of rahmatanlil ‘alamin. Key Words: New Media, Islamic Boarding School (Pondok Pesantren), the Spirit of Rahmatanlil ‘Alamin
