Abstract

This study aims to ascertain how primary school instructors felt about homeschooling of the Qur'an and Fardu Ain (KAFA). Needs analysis was conducted using a quantitative method with a questionnaire instrument containing three construct, distributed to 79 KAFA Islamic Education teachers in the state of Terengganu, Malaysia. The obtained data was analysed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software and were descriptively examined. The study's conclusions demonstrated that teachers' perceptions of the implementation of KAFA classes are high (M=4.28, SD=0.590), moderately high (M=3.63, SD=0.867) with regards to the students' level of mastery in KAFA subjects, and moderately high (M=3.43, SD=0.714) regarding the requirements of KAFA classes for homeschooling. The implication of this study is to be able to provide preliminary information about the need to provide a homeschooling model of Al-Quran and Fardu Ain (KAFA) classes for primary school students.
