| Summary: | Cleanliness is an essential element in Islam as it is a part of faith. As such, it is compulsory for Muslims to take care of their physical and spiritual cleanliness. To adopt cleanliness values, they need to understand the importance of the underlying principles of cleanliness in Islam. Guided by social learning theory (SLT), this study investigates the mediating effect of religiosity on the relationship between external and spiritual attitudes and the adoption of cleanliness among IIUM students. SLT helps to highlight the advantages of practicing external and spiritual cleanliness. This study employs a quantitative research design through the use of a questionnaire as an instrument for its survey involving 390 students from various Kulliyyah. This study found that the adoption of cleanliness values has a positive relationship with cleanliness. Also, religiosity partially mediates the relationship between attitude towards external cleanliness, attitude towards spiritual cleanliness, and the adoption of cleanliness values. Thus, this study sheds some light on the benefits of having a strong will in practicing cleanliness (externally and spiritually) in their daily routine and also helps in the adoption and development of a positive value which reflects one as a good Muslim. Therefore, the SLT holds true for the adoption of cleanliness.

Kebersihan adalah elemen penting dalam Islam kerana ia adalah sebahagian dari iman. Oleh itu,
adalah wajib bagi umat Islam untuk menjaga kebersihan fizikal dan rohani mereka. Untuk menerima
nilai kebersihan, mereka perlu memahami pentingnya prinsip kebersihan dalam Islam. Dipandu oleh
teori pembelajaran sosial (SLT), kajian ini menyelidiki kesan mediasi keagamaan pada hubungan
antara sikap luaran dan rohani dan penggunaan kebersihan di kalangan pelajar IIUM. SLT
membantu menonjolkan kelebihan mengamalkan kebersihan luaran dan rohani. Kajian ini
menggunakan reka bentuk penyelidikan kuantitatif melalui penggunaan soal selidik sebagai
instrumen untuk kajiannya melibatkan 390 pelajar dari pelbagai Kulliyyah. Kajian ini mendapati
bahawa penggunaan nilai kebersihan mempunyai hubungan positif dengan kebersihan. Juga,
keagamaan sebahagiannya mengantara hubungan antara sikap terhadap kebersihan luaran, sikap
terhadap kebersihan rohani, dan penggunaan nilai kebersihan. Oleh itu, kajian ini memberi sedikit
gambaran mengenai manfaat mempunyai keinginan yang kuat dalam mengamalkan kebersihan
(luaran dan rohani) dalam rutin harian mereka dan juga membantu dalam penggunaan dan
pembangunan nilai positif yang mencerminkan seseorang sebagai seorang Muslim yang baik. Oleh
itu, SLT berlaku untuk penggunaan kebersihan. |
