Abstract: This study focuses on the spiritual intelligence towards drug abuse tendencies among residents of rehabilitation centres in the Alor Gajah district, Melaka. This survey study was conducted with 113 respondents. The study findings were obtained by distributing the Spiritual Intelligence Questionnaire (SIQ) and the Drug Abuse Screening Test 20 (DAST 20). The data was analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 27. The results showed that there was no significant association between spiritual intelligence and drug abuse (r = .003, k >.05). The data correspondingly indicate that there is no difference in spiritual intelligence across age groups [F (2,110) = 1.353, p > .05]. There is also no difference in drug abuse across age groups [F (2,110) = .904, p > .05]. This study is expected to provide useful insights for the government and the general public in identifying drug-related tendencies in Malaysia.
