The main aim for Islamic Education is to produce a ‘good man’ in all his personality
aspects. This study aims to determine the level of secondary school students’
motivation in learning Islamic Education subject, and to examine the factors
influencing their motivation using the cross-sectional survey design. The study sample
consisted of (170) students selected from an Islamic school in Malaysia using a nonrandom, quota sampling procedure to answer a 32-item questionnaire. The items
measured four constructs: Students’ Motivation (SM), Parental Influence (PI), Teaching
Pedagogy (TP) and Teachers’ Morality (TM) using a 5-point Likert scale. Descriptive
statistics (Frequencies, Percentages, Means and Standard Deviations) and Pearson
product-moment correlation coefficients were used to analyze the collected data. The
results show that students’ motivation in learning Islamic Education subject is quite
high. The Islamic Education subject is important for students as it helps them
appreciate and improve their life. Moreover, there were significantly positive
relationships between the three factors (i.e. Parental Influence (PI), Teachers’ Morality
(TM), Teaching Pedagogy (TP) ) and Students’ Motivation (SM). It is recommended that
teachers of Islamic Education should use more interactive teaching methods to further
motivate students to learn Islamic Education and be able to apply the contents in their
life. There is a need for more quantitative research to be conducted on larger samples
and using other statistical techniques. Qualitative research is also needed to get more
