Abstract
This study was designed to find out the difficulties of teaching Islamic Studies to class IX in the government girls secondary schools of Rawalpindi city in 2003. A questionnaire consisting of 23 questions was prepared to collect data from 17 teachers of Islamic Studies in Rawalpindi city. This questionnaire had three parts based on the three parts of the textbook of Islamic Studies for class IX. Part-I “Quranic Text”, part-II “Hadith-e-Nabvi and part-III consisting of eight topics of Islamic Studies. The data collected were analyzed and it revealed that the teachers had some difficulties in teaching of Islamic Studies to class IX. These difficulties were about teaching Nazira with Qiraat, teaching of translation and description of the Quranic text and Hadith-e-Nabvi. These difficulties were not faced by only a few teachers who were neither M.A Islamyat nor they had the degree of “Shahadul-Aalimiya”. Most of the teachers, who were qualified, did not feel any difficulty in the teaching of the subject. It was recommended that the teachers who are academically and professionally qualified may be appointed to teach Islamic Studies in the schools. Moreover, the teachers may also be provided in-service training in order to improve their teaching skills. Teaching guides may also be provided during in-service training in order to improve the teaching skills of the teachers of Islamic Studies.
