Implementation of the Tilawati Method in BTQ Learning and Its Effect on the Literacy of Reading the Qur'an of Elementary School Students

Abstract

Literacy in reading the Qur'an is the main challenge in Islamic religious education because there are still many students who are not able to read the Qur'an properly and correctly, so the tilawati method comes to answer this need. This study aims to analyze the influence of the tilawati method on Qur'an reading literacy. This study uses a quantitative approach with a type of correlational descriptive research involving 36 students as a research sample. Data were collected through a questionnaire of 16 items of the implementation of the tilawati method and 9 items of Qur'an reading literacy, then analyzed using descriptive statistics, simple correlation tests, and simple linear regression tests. The results of the correlation test showed a positive and significant relationship with (r=0.540**; sig. = 0.001 < 0.05), and the regression analysis also showed a positive and significant influence (sig. = 0.000 < 0.05) between the implementation of the tilawati method on Qur'anic literacy. Thus, inferential analysis shows that the implementation of the tilawati method has a positive influence and relationship, as well as significant on students' Qur'an reading literacy. These findings prove that the tilawati method contributes to improving students' Qur'an reading literacy and is relevant to be developed in learning Islamic religious education in schools.
