There is a possible gap in constructing the virtues of good behaviour for at-risk youth from current world viewpoints when aspects of Insaniah values are disassociated with spiritual discipline. Based on Ghazali's (2017) writings, this article seeks to develop Islamic character-building components for certain target populations of at-risk youth in Malaysia. In developing the concept of the insaniah values and spiritual discipline, the central role of Islamic spiritual is referred from the words of the Quran, the daily practises that the Rasulullah (SAW) made up, and in the literature. The empirical evidence points to an association between at-risk youth activities and social problems that is both positive and statistically significant. In addition, the findings showed that when spiritual discipline is not addressed holistically, the situation for at-risk youth gets worse. To address concerns with at-risk youth, schools, teachers, and parents can make use of the spirituality elements modelled in this article. Finally, this paper identifies a number of knowledge gaps that could be filled by future research to better understand the high-level relationship between spirituality and positive development in at-risk youth.
