Abstract: Mosques have long been central institutions in the development of Islam and the heart of Muslim community life.While their role today is not entirely reflective of the practices during the Prophet's (SAW) time, mosques continue to play a significant role in religious and educational affairs.This study aims to identify the factors that influence the congregation's interest in attending religious studies at mosques in Kubang Pasu, Kedah.Using qualitative interviews, this study found that mosque management, speakers, facilities, and the content of religious knowledge are the primary factors impacting attendance.By applying the Push and Pull Theory, this research offers comprehensive insights into these influencing factors, providing valuable guidance for stakeholders to develop strategies that attract congregants to religious studies.
