This study aimed to explore how religious values are integrated into entrepreneurial activities among students in Public Higher Education Institutions (PHEI) to develop holistic and entrepreneurial students in Malaysia. The study was conducted at three public higher education institutions in the state of silver. Respondents consist of staff and students involved in entrepreneurship programs or activities. Quantitative and qualitative approaches are used to gain a more accurate picture of the integration of religious values and entrepreneurial activities. Descriptive analysis is used to analyze quantitative data, while thematic analysis is for qualitative data. The results showed that there were no significant differences in the level of religious and moral values in student entrepreneurship activities. The findings also showed a high degree of application of religious values in entrepreneurship activities. However, there are no specific policies for integrating religious values into entrepreneurship programs at educational institutions that were being studied, despite knowing their importance.
