This paper discusses the resistance of students against authority of Tengku Dayah in Aceh. The scholarship on Dayah education in contemporary Aceh shows the resistance of santri (students) to the regulations that apply in the Dayah. But so far, studies that address the theme of resistance have not received adequate attention. Based on qualitative data collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation studies, using Michel Foucault's theory. This article argues that the resistance carried out by the santri in the Dayah occurred because of their discourse on the rules and regulations that had been set, and the authorities of the Tengku occurred because of two dominating things, science, and epistemology. In line with that, this article emphasizes that the resistance of santri to the authorities of the Tengku includes various forms, namely: often being late during ablution, students sleeping during tahajjud, buying iftar outside the Dayah complex and eating during breaks, not attending privately for reasons sick, leaving the complex by climbing the fence, not wearing a white robe during Friday prayers
