Pengaruh Metode Tsaqifa terhadap Kemampuan Membaca Al-Qur’an pada Orang Dewasa dan Lansia di Majelis Taklim Baitul Qur’an Tsaqifa Desa Batu Melenggang Kecamatan Hinai

Abstract

This study aimed to describe the implementation of the Tsaqifa Method and analyze changes in Qur’anic reading ability before and after its implementation among adult and elderly learners at Baitul Qur’an Tsaqifa Islamic Study Center, Batu Melenggang Village, Hinai District. This study employed a quantitative approach with a One Group Pretest-Posttest design. The population consisted of 43 learners, all of whom were included as the research sample. Data were collected through a questionnaire, a Qur’anic reading ability test, and documentation. The questionnaire was tested for validity using Product Moment correlation and for reliability using Cronbach’s Alpha, while the Qur’anic reading ability test was validated through expert judgment using Aiken’s V and its inter-rater reliability was assessed using the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, and the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. The results showed that the mean Qur’anic reading ability score increased from 71.40 in the pretest to 86.79 in the posttest, representing an increase of 15.39 points. The Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test yielded a significance value of <0.001, indicating a significant difference in Qur’anic reading ability before and after the implementation of the Tsaqifa Method. Of the 43 participants, 42 experienced an increase in scores, none experienced a decrease, and one participant obtained the same score in both measurements. These findings indicate a change in Qur’anic reading ability following the implementation of the Tsaqifa Method in the group studied.
