THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE TAZKIYAT AL-NAFS PROGRAMME IN FOSTERING RELIGIOUS APPRECIATION AND POSITIVE BEHAVIOUR AMONG TRAINEES AT RAUDHATUS SAKINAH
Amalan Tazkiyat Al-Nafs dalam Menangani Salah Laku Remaja di Raudatul Sakinah
Abstract
Social problems and misconduct among adolescents, particularly female adolescents, are increasingly alarming and necessitate effective intervention approaches. The Raudhatus Sakinah guidance centre in Rawang, Selangor, plays a significant role in reshaping the character of young women through the tazkiyat al-nafs (purification of the soul) approach. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the tazkiyat al-nafs approach in cultivating religious consciousness among the trainees at the centre. A quantitative research design was employed through face-to-face distribution of questionnaires to all 28 trainees enrolled in the full-time two-year guidance programme. The data were analysed using SPSS version 30.0. The findings indicate that the tazkiyat al-nafs approach has a positive impact on behavioural transformation and the internalisation of Islamic moral values among the trainees. However, these findings may be influenced by the controlled environment of the centre and the tendency of trainees to provide socially desirable responses while under supervision. Therefore, a follow-up longitudinal study is recommended to assess the sustainability of the tazkiyat al-nafs practice once the trainees reintegrate into society.
