This study examines the motivation levels of Al-Quran and As-Sunnah students at Universiti Sultan Zainal Abidin (UniSZA) toward the Qiraat subject, a fundamental area of Islamic studies. Despite growing interest in Qiraat, many perceive it as challenging due to limited exposure, necessitating a deeper understanding of motivational factors. Using a quantitative survey of 108 students, analyzed through SPSS, the study found that while students demonstrate high motivation in academic commitment and competitive attitudes, a gap in self-confidence and reliability (Item 4) highlights an area for improvement. With a Cronbach’s Alpha of 0.655 indicating moderate reliability, the findings suggest that targeted interventions, such as confidence-building activities, could enhance motivation and engagement. Addressing these gaps can foster a more supportive learning environment for deeper engagement with Qiraat studies.
