ABSTRACT:
Islam practices are followed by Muslims as religious customs and events to observe affiliation with Islam. The purpose of these practices was meant to boost bond with Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala (SWT) and encourage spiritual development. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between Muslim students' perceptions on Islam practices and their academic performance. The study employed a descriptive-correlational research design with content analysis using a researcher-made questionnaire which was reliability and validity tested. Descriptive statistics such as Mean, Standard Deviation and Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient were utilized to analyze the data collected. Respondents were selected through stratified random sampling using Slovin’s Formula. Results showed that Muslim students abide Islamic Practices like Ramadan, Salah(prayer), and Jumaat (Friday prayer). Muslim students who pray five times a day tend to have a deep sense of gratitude and humility towards Allah. They have very satisfactory grades. Students’ Islamic practices and academic performance have significant correlation. Thus, this study suggests that schools may support the Muslim students in their practices by providing a modified environment in their learning process because the more they are abiding with Islamic practices, the more they strive to become better in their academic performance.
