The modal closes because the whole page is reloaded with any validation errors. There is nothing you can do about this.
What you are looking for is javascript that re-opens the modal automatically if the page contains signup errors

Keep Bootstrap Modal Open until Laravel backend Verify
I have a signup form built that pops up a Bootstrap 5 modal. simple setup no java just calling the modal to open using:
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-bs-toggle="modal" data-bs-target="#modalSignup">Sign-up</button>
for for is supposed to validate on the backend before storing in the database, the issue is, when I click on submit button the modal closes and I cant verify if the fields entered were good.
has anyone used BS5 modal on a submit form before and know how to verify and show errors before the modal closes ?

Also have you tried livewire?
And if you use ajax, see this post:
Don't redirect away and old data remains, see also @artcore answer:
Simply don't redirect back if you're using ajax and all inputs will remain.
When using ajax I return errors as json and display in a division.
Yes a learning curve involved, but worth learning how to deal with it.
Edit:
Also a good video and something I have used even before laravel is server fetched partials. This video is from the creator of livewire: https://laracasts.com/series/javascript-techniques-for-server-side-developers/episodes/1
I extend this and put all in an object (similar to an iframe) when needed.
Of course @snapey gave the answer to get you going, but just a suggestion to start learning Javascript and Ajax or livewire. I use Javascript and Ajax (fetch js).
