Along with the development of science, it is known that listening to Al-Quran recitation (murattal) has a significant influence on the quality of sleep. The purpose of this research is to find out the effect of Al-Quran recitation of Surah Ar-Rahman on the sleep quality of the elderly. This research is an experimental research with quasi experimental as the research design, one group pre- and post-test design. From 156 subjects who lived in Tresna Werdha Social Protection Center in Bandung during May to June 2017, 36 elderly met the inclusion criterias, 16 males ( 43.24%) and 21 females (56.76%). The results were analyzed through paired t test with significance level of α = 0.05. The results showed that there was a statistically significant mean score difference between the pre-test (1.98) and post-test (1.77) scores, (p=0.00 < 0.05). From this result, it can be concluded that there was an effect of Al-Quran recitation of Surah Ar-Rahman on the sleep quality of the elderly at Tresna Werdha Social Protection Center in Bandung. Further research on the mechanism of murattal in improving the sleep quality of elderly is needed.
