Journal Title: International Journal of Academic Research in Business and Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
Al-Quran is one of the primary sources in Islam which covers all aspects of life, serves as a guide to mankind. The development of modern science and technology nowadays, has positive effects on the community from time to time. The creation of modern gadgets such as smart phones, tablets and so on has become a new phenomenon, not only to Muslims but all people around the world. This study aimed to identify the use of digital al-Quran application and to know how often it is utilized among diploma students of Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Perak Branch, Tapah Campus 2016/2017 session. The main instrument implemented here is in a form of questionnaire, whereas data analysis is more focused on the descriptive statistics using IBM SPSS 20.0 software. The findings show that the level of awareness in reciting the al-Quran continuously / every day is still at a low level (36.2% - 49.7%) who read the al-Quran every day and after the obligatory prayers. Digital al-Quran application’s frequency of usage is apparently low due to the lack of awareness and practice in reciting it continuously even though various technologies have been developed to ease the process. The knowledge of digital al-Quran application’s procedures has also become one of the important aspects of its use. However, there are still students who are unaware or unsure about the procedures and hukm of using the application. Overall, students still need to be cultivated to increase awareness of the importance of reciting the al-Quran continuously using either mushaf or the digital al-Quran application.
