Abstract

This research is based on a lack of understanding regarding the influence of the "Kajian Dhuha" activity on the level of spiritual intelligence among students at Universitas Negeri Padang. Therefore, the Qatulistiwa Islam Spiritual Activities Unit at Universitas Negeri Padang organized this "Kajian Dhuha" activity. The objective of this study is to assess the extent to which the "Kajian Dhuha" activity can impact the level of spiritual intelligence among students at Universitas Negeri Padang. This research employs a quantitative approach with a correlational method, which is a type of non-experimental research involving the measurement of two variables by the researcher, followed by the analysis and evaluation of the statistical relationship between them, without considering the influence of external variables. The population consists of all students at Universitas Negeri Padang who participated in the "Kajian Dhuha" activity, totaling 937 individuals during the semesters of July-December 2022 and January-June 2023. The research sample includes 90 students who participated in the "Kajian Dhuha" activity during the same periods. The research findings indicate that the "Kajian Dhuha" activity conducted by Qatulistiwa Islam has an influence on the spiritual intelligence of students at Universitas Negeri Padang. The study further explains that the values of the "Kajian Dhuha" activity and spiritual intelligence are correlated, as evidenced by the statistical analysis using SPSS version 29. The normality test yielded a significance value of 0.008, indicating that the data is normally distributed (0.008 > 0.05). The simple linear regression test for the "Kajian Dhuha" activity variable (X) resulted in a value of 1.220, indicating a positive impact of the independent variable, "Kajian Dhuha" activity (X), on students at Universitas Negeri Padang. Regarding spiritual intelligence, the normality test produced a value of 0.158, also indicating a normal distribution. The simple linear regression test for the spiritual intelligence variable (Y) yielded a value of 6.824, indicating a positive impact of the dependent variable, Spiritual Intelligence (Y), on students at Universitas Negeri Padang. The influence on the spiritual intelligence of students at Universitas Negeri Padang was further confirmed by the F-test result, where the calculated F-value was 252.654, exceeding the tabulated F-value of 3.099, with a significance level of 0.000 < 0.05. This means that the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected, and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted. In other words, the "Kajian Dhuha" activity significantly influences the spiritual intelligence of students at Universitas Negeri Padang. The coefficient of determination analysis resulted in an R-squared value of 0.742, indicating that 74.2% of the variation in the dependent variable (Spiritual Intelligence) can be explained by the independent variable (Kajian Dhuha activity), while the remaining 26% is influenced by other factors outside the scope of this study. Based on the above analysis, it can be concluded that there is a strong influence between the "Kajian Dhuha" activity (X) and Spiritual Intelligence (Y) among students at Universitas Negeri Padang.
