Strategi Efektif Guru PAI Dalam Mengatasi Kesulitan Membaca Al-Qur’an: Studi Kasus di SMA Nurul Yaqin Tanjung Batu

Abstract

This research aims to identify the efforts of Islamic Religious Education teachers in overcoming students' difficulties in learning to read the Al-Qur'an at Nurul Yaqin High School as well as supporting and inhibiting factors that help teachers overcome these challenges. Descriptive qualitative field research was used. Data sources are primary and secondary; data collection techniques are observation, interviews, and documentation; checking the validity of the data is carried out by triangulating sources, methods and time; and data analysis is reduction, presentation, and verification. The results show that PAI teachers try to overcome difficulties in learning to read the Al-Qur'an by providing motivation, studying the Al-Qur'an 30 minutes before class time, studying the Al-Qur'an in groups, and collaborating with other subject teachers. Factors that support teachers in overcoming difficulties in learning to read the Al-Qur'an are: (1) support from the school; (2) available facilities and infrastructure, and (3) religious activities. Meanwhile, the factors that hinder it are: (1) often reading the letters of the Koran incorrectly; (2) how to apply recitation of the Koran; (3) how to say hijaiyah letters; (4) difficult to understand recitation; (5) looking for free time to study the Koran. The results of this research show that PAI teachers have a very important role in overcoming students' difficulties in reading the Koran, therefore PAI teachers must really maximize their role in learning at school.
