Description
Summary:The Muslim community in Malaysia consists of various ethnicities and races. Some have embraced Islam since birth, and it is a religion inherited from their forefathers, but some embrace Islam as a new brother, including the indigenous community in this country. Each new group of brothers needs a different approach and guidance regarding religious guidance due to cultural factors, language, and level of education. The comprehensive teaching module and an instrument for measuring the Indigenous community’s mastery of the Fardhu Ain programs must be carried out. The question that arises from these issues is to what extent does the community have mastery over the Fardhu Ain aspect of their daily lives, especially the Asli people in the state of Pahang? Thus, this study was conducted to design and build the criteria and content of the “Fardhu Ain Mastery Module of the Indigenous People in the State of Pahang” based on the process of confirming the consensus of nine experts who were selected purposively using Fuzzy Delphi analysis which is Phase 2 of the previous research process which is the analysis needs. This quantitative study has updated four components of the latest topics that need to be taught in the Fardhu Ain module for the Pahang Indigenous community compared to the existing module. Based on the Fuzzy Delphi analysis, the experts have expressed a consensus of agreement to the four essential components of the module, namely a) Objectives of the Module, b) Content of the topics in the module, c) Teaching activities of the module, and d) Module assessment activities. For the details of the items in component e) Content of the titles in the module, it was found that four new components need to be added to the Fardhu Ain module for the Orang Asli community in the state of Pahang which is currently seven modules, making eleven components of the latest topics that need to be taught in this Fardhu Ain module. Based on the expert agreement, the four latest title components that need to be added are basic reading skills of the Quran and Tajwid, interpretation of selected Quranic verses, selected hadiths, and stories of selected Prophets. The results of this study will be extended to the implementation stage of the Fardhu Ain strengthening program for the Pahang indigenous community shortly to review its effectiveness further.
