This study aims to analyze the internalization of Islamic spirituality in strengthening the psychological resilience of Generation Z students in a madrasah setting. This study is motivated by the increasing psychological distress among adolescents due to academic pressure, social dynamics, and exposure to digital media, which affect students’ emotional well-being. Although various studies have shown a relationship between spirituality and mental health, research on the internalization of Islamic spirituality as a factor in strengthening psychological resilience in madrasahs remains limited. This study employs a qualitative approach using a case study design at MA Arraudlah Tumapel Duduksampeyan Gresik. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving the madrasah principal, Islamic Education (PAI) teachers, guidance counselors, homeroom teachers, and students. The results indicate that the internalization of Islamic spirituality is achieved through the regular practice of religious activities, teachers’ exemplary behavior, and daily religious practices. Activities such as congregational prayer, istighosah, tahlil, and communal prayer help students manage their emotions, reduce academic anxiety, and improve their ability to adapt to psychological stress. This study confirms that Islamic spirituality serves as a form of religious coping in strengthening the psychological resilience of Generation Z students at the madrasah.
