Abstract

In an era where nations broadly and educational institutions specifically attach significant importance to nurturing individuals, the Quran has adopted a unique approach to human development and enhancement. These nurtured individuals are expected to not only benefit themselves but also their communities. Moreover, they are envisioned as proactive contributors to the development of their surroundings and the individuals within them. The present study explores the core relationship between Islamic religiosity and the locus of control among middle and high school students at the Saudi school in Malaysia. The comprehension and application of this Quranic curriculum by educators is seen as crucial in fostering generations with creative human potential. This potential, in turn, has a profound impact on individual and societal development processes. This educational journey begins with an individual's intrinsic feeling of responsibility for the consequences of their actions, referred to as the 'internal locus of control'. The findings of this study suggest a positive relationship between Islamic religiosity and the internal locus of control. This bolsters the hypothesis that Islamic religiosity enhances an individual's level of self-responsibility, and thus, their constant striving towards achieving success. This success is seen to depend on their deep faith in Allah and their dedicated efforts to achieve it.
