| Summary: | The purpose of Islam is to develop exceptional human beings based on aqidah.
Those with faith will have good life and will, in turn, have a positive influence
on people around them. In Malaysia, aqidah forms the basis of Islamic
education. Its main objective is to produce students who have Godconsciousness
in all aspects of life. This survey was carried out by way of
questionnaire among secondary school students. The interview method was
also used with selected students, teachers and officers from the Ministry of
Education. The paper will discuss the influence of aqidah on students in three
parts. First is the extent of knowledge of aqidah among the students, second is
the relationship between the knowledge of aqidah and students’ social life, and
finally, the impact of aqidah on students’ behaviour. This paper concludes that
aqidah has a great impact upon students’ social activities. |
