dc.description.abstractGlobal life has changed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 vaccination is the main key to stop the spread of the disease and build up herd immunity. Nonetheless, the legality of the chemicals in COVID-19 vaccines has raised doubts, especially among Muslims, making it challenging to win over the public’s trust in taking the vaccine. This study aims to identify the relationship between perceived religiosity and COVID-19 vaccination in Melaka Tengah, the most populated area in Melaka, Malaysia. A quantitative survey was employed among 411 respondents using a purposive non-probability approach. Questionnaires were distributed online via Google Form. The data was analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences, version 26. The findings showed a significant regression between perceived religiosity and COVID-19 vaccine acceptance (β = .38, ρ <.000). Most respondents agreed that religion is their life guidance and that religion does influence their life choices. The acceptance level for COVID-19 vaccination was high, at 3.27 (SD =.89). Concerns on choosing to take up COVID-19 vaccinations include factors such as safety and halal status. Furthermore, by examining perceived religiosity in the context of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance, this study contributes significantly in adding literature on health, disease, and vaccination.en_US
