Abstract

Al-Qur'an is a guide for all, serving as a solid and stable concept of religious foundation. Al-Quran education is certainly expansive and bottomless because the Al-Quran is a miracle, a guide for the ummah, and educates people for the well-being of this world and the hereafter. The Qur'an’s revelation is closely related to the knowledge of Qiraat because it is the words of Allah that were revealed to the Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. Accordingly, this pilot study intended to survey the level of Qiraat knowledge among Qur’anic Skill Class (KKQ) teachers in Kedah. The sample for this pilot study was 42 KKQ teachers from various secondary schools in Kedah. The Qiraat Knowledge Level Questionnaire instrument contained 22 items and three dimensions of knowledge (pedagogical knowledge, content knowledge, and pedagogical content knowledge). The knowledge level was measured using a 5-point Likert scale ranging from "Strongly disagree" to "Strongly agree". The study showed the Cronbach Alpha value for the level of Qiraat knowledge among KKQ teachers was the best with a Cronbach Alpha value of (a = 0.981). For the knowledge construct, the Cronbach Alpha value for the first element of pedagogical knowledge was (a = 0.950), the second element of content knowledge (a = 0.948), and the third element of pedagogical content knowledge (a = 0.969). The overall findings showed that the Qiraat knowledge level of the KKQ teachers was at a moderately high level with a mean value of 3.61 and a standard deviation of .66. In conclusion, all parties, especially KKQ teachers, should improve their knowledge related to the pedagogical content, especially the Qiraat knowledge. This was to ensure effective teaching and facilitation (PdPc) and further increase the knowledge of KKQ teachers in the Qiraat. This effort was expected to encourage the continuity of the Qiraat knowledge
