@article{Yuhisyam_Hoque_2025, title={Understanding and Practicing Rukhsah in Ibadah among Elderly Muslims: A Case Study}, volume={9}, url={https://jqss.usim.edu.my/index.php/jqss/article/view/241}, DOI={10.33102/jqss.vol9no1.241}, abstractNote={<p>Religious education is essential for elderly Muslims to maintain their faith practices with both understanding and ease. Fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) provides rukhsah (legal concessions) in acts of worship to accommodate challenges such as old age, illness, or other limitations. However, many elderly individuals remain unaware of these concessions, which can hinder their ability to observe religious duties effectively. This study explores elderly Muslims’ understanding and practice of rukhsah in the areas of prayer, fasting, and Hajj. A survey was conducted among 50 elderly individuals in Nilai. The findings revealed that while most participants were aware of the concept of rukhsah, only a few demonstrated a comprehensive understanding of its rulings and practical application. The study identified several contributing factors, including limited access to religious education, age-related memory decline, and common misconceptions about rukhsah among the elderly. </p> <p><strong>Keywords</strong>: Fiqh education, Elderly, Rukhsah, Worship (ibadah)</p> <p> </p>}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Quran Sunnah Education & Special Needs}, author={Yuhisyam , Yusnajmi Salihin and Hoque, Mesbahul}, year={2025}, month={Jun.}, pages={59–72} }
