Abstract

Islamic tourism holds significant potential in shaping individuals' religious perception and practices. Understanding its impact on high school students is essential for educational institutions to develop effective strategies in promoting religious awareness and practices among the youth. This study aims to investigate the influence of Islamic tourism experiences on the religious perception and practices among high school students. Despite the growing popularity of Islamic tourism, there is limited research on its impact on the religious beliefs and practices of high school students. This knowledge gap hinders educators and policymakers from harnessing the potential of Islamic tourism as a tool for fostering religious awareness and practices among the youth. Thus this study intends to discover three objectives which are; 1. To examine the extent to which Islamic tourism experiences influence the religious perception of high school students. This study will employ a quantitative research method, utilizing surveys to collect data from a sample of high school students. The survey will include questions assessing participants' experiences with Islamic tourism, their religious beliefs and practices, as well as demographic information. Data analysis will involve descriptive statistics and inferential techniques to examine the relationships between Islamic tourism experiences, religious perception, and practices among high school students. It is anticipated that Islamic tourism experiences will positively influence the religious perception and practices of high school students. The study expects to identify specific aspects of Islamic tourism that contribute most significantly to these outcomes, providing insights for educators and policymakers to enhance religious education programs.
