Abstract

Fiqh learning in Islamic schools still faces the problem of low student motivation and participation due to the dominance of lecture methods that create a monotonous learning atmosphere. This study aims to describe the application of the Verbal Football strategy in Fiqh learning and analyze its contribution to increasing student learning motivation. The study used a descriptive qualitative approach with observation, interview, and documentation techniques with Fiqh teachers and eighth-grade students of Madrasah Al Falah Padang. The results showed that the application of the Verbal Football strategy packaged in the form of learning tools and student worksheets was able to create an interactive learning atmosphere through an educational game format resembling a soccer match, so that students were more active in discussions, involved in group work, motivated to compete healthily, and showed improvements in cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects. Thus, the Verbal Football strategy can be an alternative innovation in Fiqh learning that is effective in increasing student learning motivation in Islamic schools and is relevant to be applied in the broader context of religious education.

Abstract

In the early days of the Quran's revelation, there were only two reasons why the companions memorized the Quran: sincere intentions for Allah and to preserve the purity of the Quran. However, today, there are various motivations for memorizing the Quran. The purpose of this study is to determine the motivations for memorizing the Quran among students at Quranic colleges in Indonesia. To achieve this research objective, the author used two approaches, namely qualitative and quantitative. In the first stage, the author employed a qualitative approach involving twenty participants who were interviewed in depth. The participants were selected using purposive sampling techniques from the 2019, 2020, and 2021 cohorts. The collected data were then analyzed thematically using NVivo. The results of the first stage of the study identified nine motivations for students to memorize the Quran. These findings became the basis for the author to conduct the second stage of research using a quantitative approach. The nine motivations for memorizing the Quran were used as instruments, compiled in a Likert scale format to collect data on students’ motivations. This was done to confirm the findings in the first stage of research. In the second stage, the author involved 250 participants from a total of 1,500 students at Quranic colleges in Indonesia. The collected data were then analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics 26 software. The results of the second stage showed consistency with the first stage. This study provides an overview of students’ motivations for memorizing the Quran at Quranic higher education institutions in Indonesia and shows that there has been a shift in the motives for memorization. Further studies need to revisit the issue of motivation in the context of restoring the purity of intention or making these nine motivations a reference for future research on Quran memorization.
