ABSTRACT
This study examines the relationship between religiosity and academic resilience in Indonesia. Employing the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) methodology, the research systematically reviewed articles from Sinta 1–4 indexed journals using the keywords “resilience” and “academic resilience.” The review identified 25 relevant papers, categorised into four themes: 18 focused on students, three on teachers, three on Islamic settings, and one on study instruments. However, only four papers directly explored the connection between religiosity and academic resilience and their impact on academic life. The findings reveal that religious teachings and supportive environments in Islamic settings, such as Pesantren, significantly contribute to students’ academic resilience and spiritual development. Integrating religious values into the curriculum can play a crucial role in fostering resilience, as teachings often emphasise ethical principles like compassion, forgiveness, and perseverance. These values help students navigate challenges, encouraging responsible and ethical decision-making. The study recommends that educators and policymakers incorporate religious teachings and practices that promote resilience into educational curricula and school activities to strengthen students’ personal and academic growth.
