We present a rigorous study of compact objects within f(Q) gravity where electrical fields and dark matter are studied and provide novel mass-radius relations with models falling in the mass gap of the events GW190814 and GW200210. After formulating the basic equations and finding their relevant solutions, we impose the boundary conditions on the system under treatment. The decoupled solution for the strange stellar model with the dark matter density profile is obtained. The distribution patterns of the effective energy density and the radial as well as the tangential pressure and anisotropy in the system are intensively examined. The stability properties of the stellar configuration and the influence of dark matter are studied. The recent observations of supermassive compact star candidates such as PSR J1614-2230 and PSR J0952-0607 with observed masses greater than or equal to 2 M_⊙ have been employed in our study. Interestingly, the present study predicts the constraints on mass-radius measurements of the observed stars satisfying the equation of state based on the MIT bag model and employing the condition of mimicking, i.e., ρ^θ^ = ${\chi }_{1}{\rho }_{{}_{{\rm{PI}}}}$ in f(Q) gravity. Our graphical results exhibit that for a particular M-R curve with fixed values of the parameters, neutron stars having mass less than M_max exist with larger radii within the context of the f(Q) formalism.
