The aim of this research is to identify respondents’ perception of religious study toward educators in terms of readiness, materials, presentation, and character in Selangor state mosques. The research was analysed using quantitative research design using questionnaires. 400 respondents were chosen through cluster sampling. The questionnaires were distributed in three district zones in the state of Selangor. Results were descriptively and inferentially analysed with the values of frequency, percentage, mean value, t-test, and ANOVA. Results show that respondents’ perception of educators’ readiness shows high mean value (3.77), perception of materials shows average mean value (3.33), perception of presentation shows average mean value (3.41), and perception of educators’ character shows average mean value (3.43). The results indicate that religious study at mosques has given a value in lifelong learning towards the Muslim community. Although respondents’ perception towards it is still at an average level, however, this could indirectly affect them in terms of acceptance of understanding, and appreciation towards the religion. The results of this study contribute to the improvement of the management of mosque institutions in the aspect of curriculum development which incorporates lifelong learning or adult learning (andragogy), faculty management, and understanding of the subject required for the Muslim community.
