Abstract
This study investigated the nature of attitude of female students toward the learning of Islamic studies in some selected Unity Colleges of the North West Zone of Nigeria. The target populations were senior secondary school students of three selected Unity Colleges of the North West Zone, the sample was selected using stratified random sampling technique. The instrument used for data collection was questionnaire using likert scale type. A total of 369 respondents were used. The information gathered were analyzed and interpreted in a tabular form. It was concluded from the findings of this study that a great number of female students’ display a negative attitude toward Islamic Studies because they considered it not relevant to their financial ambition. It was also discovered that there was lack of available and relevant textbooks and other instructional materials that aid the teaching and learning of Islamic Studies. More so, school authorities have their contributions to the problems faced by Islamic Studies as a subject in their various schools.
