<![CDATA[The exploration of religious coping and spiritual well-being among the youth in Indonesia, the world's largest Muslim-majority country, is of particular significance due to its unique socio-cultural and religious landscape. College students in Indonesia face significant academic and developmental pressures, yet a comprehensive understanding of how religious coping specifically influences Islamic spiritual well-being in this demographic remains underexplored. This study aimed to systematically investigate the relationship between religious coping and Islamic spiritual well-being among Indonesian Muslim college students. A quantitative, correlational design was employed. A convenience sample of 398 Muslim college students in Indonesia was recruited. Participants completed self-report measures assessing their use of religious coping strategies and their level of Islamic spiritual well-being. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation to examine the relationship between the two primary variables. The analysis revealed a statistically significant, strong positive correlation between religious coping and Islamic spiritual well-being, r(396) = .763, p < .001. This indicates that higher levels of religious coping were strongly associated with greater reported Islamic spiritual well-being among the participants. The findings underscore the pivotal role of religious coping as a significant factor associated with the spiritual well-being of Muslim college students in Indonesia. This suggests that culturally sensitive interventions and support systems within higher education that foster positive religious coping mechanisms may be highly effective in promoting holistic student development. To further enhance our understanding, future research should employ longitudinal designs to examine causality and investigate the potential mediating role of specific coping strategies in well-being outcomes.
