Hypertension is a condition that often does not present clear visible symptoms, with blood pressure readings reaching 140/90 mmHg or higher. One non-pharmacological treatment method that can be considered to reduce hypertension is Benson relaxation therapy combined with Quranic recitation (murottal). This study aims to evaluate the effects of the combination of Benson relaxation therapy and Quranic recitation on blood pressure changes in hypertensive patients. The study design used a quasi-experimental quantitative approach with a pretest-posttest method without a control group. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, involving 21 hypertensive patients receiving treatment at the Sultan Agung Islamic Hospital. Wilcoxon test was used for data analysis. The results of the study showed that before the intervention, both systolic and diastolic blood pressure were in the stage 2 hypertension category, but after the intervention, blood pressure decreased to stage 1 hypertension. This indicates a significant change in blood pressure due to the combination of Benson relaxation therapy and Quranic recitation (p-value < 0.05).

This study aims to identify the challenges in teaching maharatul qiro’ah at Madrasah Aliyah Uswatun Hasanah and propose solutions to enhance students’ fluency in Arabic. As a fundamental language skill, maharatul qiro’ah often encounters various obstacles, including students' limited understanding of Arabic phonology and grammar, low learning motivation, and the lack of diverse teaching methods. To address these issues, this research suggests adopting more varied and interactive teaching approaches, utilizing technology to support reading practice, and improving teachers' competencies through training programs. Additionally, parental and community support is considered a crucial factor in facilitating students’ learning processes. By implementing these strategies, students are expected to improve their reading skills in Arabic texts and gain a more comprehensive mastery of the language, which will contribute to their understanding of Islamic teachings and their application in daily life. The findings of this study are expected to contribute to enhancing the quality of Arabic language instruction at Madrasah Aliyah Uswatun Hasanah and serve as a reference for other educational institutions in developing Arabic learning strategies.

Learning tajweed in reading the Qur'an is not just an effort to improve the quality of reading, but also as a means to foster a deep understanding of the contents and messages of the Qur'an (tadabbur). This study aims to analyze the implementation of tajweed learning as a means of tadabbur Al-Qur'an in grade 4 of SD Negeri 3 Kalianan Krucil Probolinggo, focusing on the strategies applied, the challenges faced, and the impact on students' Islamic understanding. This study used a qualitative method with a descriptive approach, involving classroom observation, interviews with teachers and students, and analysis of learning documents. The results show that the strategies used include the talaqqi and musyafahah methods, the use of interactive learning media, and the integration of Islamic values in every learning session. However, the main challenges faced are students' limited initial understanding of the laws of tajweed, the lack of technology-based learning facilities, and the varied levels of ability to read the Qur'an among students. Nevertheless, tajweed learning combined with the tadabbur approach proved effective in increasing students' awareness of the meaning of the verses read and fostering a love for the Qur'an.

The Qur'an is a collection of the words of Allah SWT which were revealed to the Messenger of Allah SAW through the angel Gabriel which was then taught to mankind. Reading the Qur'an is part of the proof of the faith of Muslims in maintaining and loving the words of Allah, because it is known that the Qur'an has such great and meaningful content in human life and the universe and its knowledge. This community service was carried out at the TPQ Musholla Al-Hikamh Batam which focused on providing an understanding to the TPQ students of the Al-Qur'an class on the science of tajwid, so that the students were allowed in their learning to provide an example of a tajwid reading "One Person One Example" which lasted for 2 months.

Observations carried out before this activity gave us an idea in an effort to provide an understanding to the students that studying the science of tajwid is not as difficult as previously imagined. The achievement of this activity is to provide a positive impact for the students of the Al-Qur'an class to continue learning to understand the science of Tajwid..

The ability to read in Arabic is a basic skill that is very important for santri in understanding religious texts. However, many students still experience difficulties in reading Arabic words and sentences due to less interactive learning methods. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of interactive methods in improving the reading skills of students at Musholla Al-Masykurin. The method used in this research is a qualitative approach with descriptive methods, through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results showed that the application of interactive methods, such as group discussions and the use of audiovisual media, had a positive impact on improving santri reading skills. Group discussions help students understand the text collectively, increase confidence, and improve pronunciation. The use of audiovisual media, especially in the form of songs and learning videos, makes it easier for students to remember words and sentences, and makes learning more fun and interactive. With an increase in the average score of students' reading skills by 23.08%, it can be concluded that the interactive method is effective in improving reading skills of Arabic words and sentences. Therefore, this method is recommended to continue to be applied and developed in order to create a more optimal learning process for students.
