Publication The Influence Of Islamic Education On Empowering Individual Religious Attachment And Commitment Among Undergraduates In Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia(Penerbit USIM, Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia, 2021-10-26) ;Nurzafirah SaariMashitah SulaimanIslamic education that has been introduced at the tertiary level plays a critical role in the effort to produce a balanced and quality human being, particularly those who believe in and fear the Almighty God. Religious education is expected to improve students' religious practices and morals. Therefore, 1) this study aims to identify students' perceptions on the implementation of Islamic Education through university compulsory subjects in Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM). This study also analyzes the level of religious attachment and commitment among students individually from various disciplines and levels of study in USIM. Furthermore, this study also examines the influence of Islamic education on religious attachment and religious commitment among students in addressing the problem of moral deterioration through the increasing level of individual’s religious commitment among students. Previous studies have discovered that religious knowledge gained from the university's campus environment and learning environment is one of the external factors influencing religious commitment among individuals. Hence, the knowledge gained by students is a result of the implementation of Islamic education through the method of expanding Islamic knowledge that aims to nurture good values on students' religious commitment. Man will be unable to differentiate between what is good and bad if he lacks of religious knowledge. Students' belief and commitment towards religion will be strengthened if there are efforts towards increasing knowledge and understanding Islamic teachings and values. This study was conducted using a quantitative approach by distributing questionnaires to students in Islamic Science University of Malaysia. The data received were analyzed using SPSS 16.0 software descriptive analysis, means and correlation. It is hoped that this study could help to discover the relationship between the effectiveness in the implementation of Islamic studies in the university curricular and the efforts of strengthening level of students' religious dependency and commitment in facing the current challenges of Muslims’ individual spiritual development in the era of Industrial Revolution 5.0.
