The Correlation between Logic Ability, Mathematical Proof and The Holy Qur’an Recitations

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to measure the ability of logic and mathematical proof of students through logic problems, proof. To measure the ability of logic in addition to the logic test also by testing the ability to memorize the Holy Qur’an (tahfidz). This research method is a quantitative method measuring the ability of logic and mathematical proof of mathematics education study program students. The subjects of this study were 47 students of mathematics education at one of the tertiary institutions in Bandung who were finishing their thesis and memorizing the Holy Qur’an juz 30. The instruments used consisted of logic questions, proof questions, tahsin and tahfidz assessment forms, and questionnaires. The results showed that the mathematical proof ability was in the low category while the logic ability was in the sufficient category. Ability of tahsin and or tahfidz in either category. Students respond to both tahsin and tahfidz activities and do not object to the obligation to memorize the Holy Qur’an juz 30. The low ability of proof is caused by students not practicing proving questions, difficulty in completing because of the low understanding of theorems and forms of proof. There is a correlation between logical ability and mathematical proof, correlation between logical ability, mathematical proof with memorization of the Holy Qur’an. Mathematical proof ability can be trained by doing a lot of work or practicing proving questions, whereas logic ability can be trained by increasing brain activity for example memorizing.
