This study aims to describe and compare the internalization of Maqashid Syariah values in the religious life of Generation Z in Bintan Regency and Tanjungpinang City, in order to formulate strategic recommendations for improving the development of the religious character of the younger generation in line with the principles of Maqashid Syariah. This study employs a quantitative approach with a comparative method. Primary data were obtained through questionnaires distributed to students at the secondary and tertiary education levels as the unit of analysis. Data collection was conducted via surveys using structured questionnaires, while data analysis involved validity testing, reliability testing, and non-parametric analysis using the Mann-Whitney U Test.
