<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Halaqoh method in improving Quran reading skills among students at Taluban School Mosque in Thailand. The Halaqoh method was chosen because it emphasizes an intensive approach, direct supervision, and personal interaction between educators and students in small groups. This study employs a quantitative approach using a pre-experimental, one-group pretest-posttest design. It utilizes total sampling (saturation sampling), a technique in which the entire population is included as the study sample. The assessed criteria include the accuracy of letter articulation points (makharijul huruf), the application of tajwid rules, reading fluency, and eloquence. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics to determine the mean, maximum, minimum, and percentage of improvement in learning outcomes, as well as a paired-sample t-test to assess differences between pretest and posttest scores. This test was chosen because it is simple, easy to understand, and suitable for comparing learning outcomes within the same group before and after the intervention. The results of this study indicate that the implementation of the halaqah method at Taluban School Mosque in Thailand significantly improved students’ Quran reading skills. The average posttest scores were higher than the pretest scores, indicating that the halaqah method is effective in improving Quran reading skills. These findings suggest that small-group learning through the halaqah method fosters more intensive interaction between teachers and students, as well as among students themselves, thereby gradually improving the quality of Quranic recitation. Therefore, the halaqah method can serve as an alternative strategy for teaching the Quran in Islamic educational institutions and mosque settings.]]>
