Abstract

    PURPOSE: This dissertation aims to know the reasons of deterioration of the female students , in the Studies Department , in reciting and intonation of the Holy QURAN . However, I noted this phenomena while I was lecturing in the same Department . Then I decided to carry out this study to assess the reasons and to recommend the solutions , because it is very important for the student  in the Department  to read the HOLY QURAN correctly according to the well known provisions of reciting /intonation .  No doubt , graduating skilled and well trained student in reciting /intonation of the HOLY QURAN , will  secure a good student at General Education Level , since she is going to teach the same subject .

METHODOLOG OF THE RESEARCH

The research has been arranged  into four chapters . The first chapter was assigned for the theoretical aspect of the study . The second chapter for the literary framework , concentrating on the importance of learning reciting/intonation of the HOLY QURAN for the Muslim to read it correctly  .The third chapter  is for the study procedures . To approve the findings of the study , a sample / segment of students interviewed through scale questionnaire , to get the primary data and to arrange the arbitration procedures and verifying the sample and its constancy . The research's tool was questionnaire . T he last chapter was  assigned for statistic treatment of the primary data and discussion of the assumptions that support the findings  .

FINDINGS

The student's weakness in reading the HOLY  QURAN correctly according to the well known provisions of reciting/ intonation is due the following reasons;

1- Student's personal reasons ; she doesn't care to improve her skills on reciting /intonation of the HOLY QURAN .

2- The  students didn't get an efficient education on reciting/intonation of the HOLY QURAN at the GENERAL EDUCATIO

N LEVEL  , since the unskilled teachers give the student high grades that doesn't match their true level in reciting / intonation of the HOLY QURAN .

3- The students weren't influent in Arabic language , this is also due the PREVIOUS General Education . 

4- The officials of  education increased  the number of the students in the class regardless of the nature of the subject the requirements of educational environment and appointed unskilled teachers .

5- The students didn't encourage/ follow up by  their families to memorize the provisions of reciting/intonation of the HOLY QURAN .

I suggest solutions of the above findings ; To give more attention to the subject ,specially by the Officials , such introducing the new technological means /media , teaching labs , giving additional lessons at the mosque , introducing a new strategies of the recently called the cooperation education by allowing the full skilled student to teacher  the others , hold competition and giving prizes to the students who improved themselves in reciting the HOLY QURAN . Mobilization of the family to follow up their daughters and to encourage them .
