Religious scholars and psychologists see that, the validity of this structure is calculated according to Likert Scale multiple choice with the overall average of 3.62 and variance of ./2. The research result shown that the average of validity of the statements is 3.51, the variance is 0.37, the correlation is 0.88 and the significance is 0.01. The validity of test was known as a result of investigating the identity of questionnaires with Cronbach's alpha coefficient at 0.96 level. Half-splitting, gives the two halves a validity of 0.93 and 0.95, which confirms the great reliability and validity of this test.
