Supporting factors contributing to the success of the learning process include the talaqqi method, direct guidance from the teacher, and a conducive learning environment. The challenges faced by students include limited instructional time, difficulty distinguishing certain Tajwid rules, and insufficient practice in reading the Qur'an at home. Overall, Tahsin and Tajwid instruction plays a significant role in improving students' Qur'an recitation skills at Madrasah Diniyah Nurul Huda Bangodua, Cirebon.

This study aims to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the Juz ‘Amma memorization strategy implemented at Madrasah Diniyah Takmiliyah Baitul Azhar, evaluate its effectiveness, and examine the assessment mechanisms applied in Qur’anic learning. The research employed a qualitative field-study approach, focusing on learning activities as the primary object of investigation. Data were collected through direct observation of the learning process, in-depth interviews with the madrasah principal and teachers (ustadz/ustadzah), and documentation analysis related to the memorization program. The data were analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing to generate accurate and in-depth findings. The results indicate that the memorization program utilizes a combination of talaqqi, takrir (repetition), sima’i, and small halaqah methods. These strategies have proven effective in improving students’ memorization abilities, as reflected in increased reading fluency, better tajwid accuracy, and the achievement of memorization targets. In addition, the madrasah implements a structured and continuous evaluation system consisting of daily assessments, weekly reviews, and final examinations for each juz. The evaluation focuses on memorization fluency, recitation accuracy, and overall memorization quality. The study concludes that integrating diverse memorization methods with systematic evaluation significantly enhances the effectiveness of Qur’an memorization learning in Islamic educational institutions.  

This study aims to describe the implementation of instilling Islamic Religious Education values in the aspects of the Qur’an and Aqidah at TPQ Fattuhul Qulub, Doyo Baru District. The background of this research is based on the importance of Islamic religious education in shaping children’s character and morals from an early age amid the decline in the morality of the younger generation. TPQ, as a non-formal educational institution, has an important role in instilling Islamic values through learning the Qur’an, aqidah, and morals. However, in its implementation, several obstacles are still found, such as the low understanding of students regarding religious values, varying abilities in reading the Qur’an, and the lack of support from family and community environments.This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation at TPQ Fattuhul Qulub, Doyo Baru District. The focus of the research includes the planning, implementation, and evaluation processes of instilling Islamic Religious Education values in the aspects of the Qur’an and Aqidah.The results of the study indicate that the instillation of Islamic Religious Education values has been carried out through structured stages of planning, implementation, and evaluation. The learning process was conducted using the methods of Iqra’, tahsin, tahfidz, talaqqi, lectures, role modeling, habituation, and exemplary stories. In the Qur’anic aspect, students were guided to read the Qur’an according to tajwid rules and memorize short surahs, while in the Aqidah aspect, students were taught the pillars of faith, the attributes of Allah and His Messenger, and the formation of Islamic morals. The evaluation results showed improvements in Qur’anic reading skills, memorization, understanding of aqidah, and changes in students’ religious behavior, such as becoming more disciplined, polite, and diligent in worship. This success was supported by the exemplary behavior of the teachers and the involvement of parents in the learning process.

The Qiroati method is an instructional approach to reading the Qur’an that emphasizes direct practice of tartil recitation in accordance with the rules of tajwid. This method is practical, systematic, and implemented gradually, meaning that learners are not allowed to proceed to the next level before achieving fluency at the current stage. One of the main challenges in learning to read and memorize the Qur’an is the limited use of structured teaching methods, as some teachers still rely primarily on personal experience and conventional reading approaches. This condition contributes to students’ lack of fluency in reading and memorizing the Qur’an, as well as decreased learning motivation due to monotonous and less effective instructional practices. This study aims to examine the implementation of the Qiroati method in improving students’ Qur’anic reading ability within the Tahfidzul Qur’an program at SMP Daruttaqwa Full Day School. The findings are expected to provide useful insights for educators and contribute to academic knowledge. This research employs a field research design with a descriptive qualitative approach, focusing on describing the application of the Qiroati method in enhancing students’ reading ability in relation to Qur’an memorization. Data were collected through interviews, tests, and documentation, while data analysis involved data collection, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that the implementation of the Qiroati method effectively improves students’ ability to read the Qur’an in the Tahfidzul Qur’an program. This is evidenced by the improvement in students’ reading scores compared to their previous performance. In practice, the method involves teachers modeling correct recitation, followed by students reading collectively. Therefore, the Qiroati method not only enhances students’ accuracy in reading the Qur’an but also fosters a more engaging and effective learning environment.

This study aims to determine the implementation process of the talaqqi method in teaching tajwid in Islamic Religious Education subjects and the obstacles encountered in its implementation at SD Negeri 57 Buton. This research used a qualitative approach with descriptive research type. The subjects of the study were Islamic Religious Education teachers and 23 fifth grade students. Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis techniques consisted of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that the implementation of the talaqqi method was carried out through several stages: the teacher first demonstrated the correct recitation of the Qur'an, students listened carefully, and then students imitated the recitation both collectively and individually. The talaqqi method helps teachers directly correct students' recitation mistakes, thereby improving students' tajwid skills. The obstacles found include differences in students' Qur'an reading abilities, limited learning time, and lack of practice at home. To overcome these obstacles, the teacher provided additional guidance and motivated students to practice reading the Qur'an more frequently.

This study aims to enhance the academic synergy of the Quranic Studies and Exegesis Program at IAIN Sultan Amai Gorontalo in supporting Quranic literacy mentoring activities for coastal communities in Oluhuta Village, Bone Bolango Regency. The study is motivated by the low level of Quranic literacy in coastal areas, which is influenced by limited access to religious education and a shortage of competent mentors. This condition is further exacerbated by the fact that most residents of Oluhuta Village are fishermen who spend much of their lives at sea, limiting opportunities for structured learning. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this study explores the role of lecturers and students from the Quranic Studies and Exegesis Department in planning, implementing, and evaluating a mentoring program aimed at strengthening basic skills in reading and writing the Quran. The findings show that interdisciplinary academic synergy, particularly in tajwid, tahsin, and Quranic teaching methodologies, significantly improves participants’ Quranic literacy skills. In addition, the program strengthens the relationship between Islamic higher education institutions, particularly IAIN Sultan Amai Gorontalo, and the surrounding community. It also serves as a medium for implementing academic integration and community service values. This study recommends the development of an integrated and context-based Quranic mentoring model for similar coastal communities in other regions.

This study aims to describe the role of parents in increasing the motivation to learn to read and write the Qur'an (BTA) at TPQ Babul Khair Abepura and analyze its impact on the children's abilities. The research uses a qualitative approach with a case study design, involving teachers/ustadz, parents, and students as data sources. Data was collected through observations, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, with its validity tested through source triangulation. The results show that the role of parents is crucial in enhancing children's learning motivation, both as educators, motivators, facilitators, and role models. Active parental involvement has proven to improve discipline, enthusiasm for learning, and children's achievements in reading and writing the Qur'an. On the other hand, a lack of parental involvement negatively affects children's motivation and abilities. The motivation provided by parents helps in the smooth reading of the Qur'an, understanding tajwid, and writing hijaiyah letters. In conclusion, the success of BTA learning is not only dependent on the process at TPQ but is also influenced by parental involvement at home. The synergy between the family and educational institutions is crucial in improving the quality of Qur'an learning and shaping a morally upright generation.

The ability to read the Qur’an is a fundamental competence in Islamic education. However, many children still face difficulties in reading the Qur’an accurately and fluently in accordance with tajwid rules. This community service program (Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat/PKM) aimed to improve Qur’anic reading skills of students at Asy-Syakirin Qur’anic Learning Center (TPQ) in Nibung Village, Kapuas Hulu Regency, West Kalimantan. The program employed a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach, actively involving teachers and students in all stages of the activities. The implementation consisted of planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. During the planning phase, students’ initial reading abilities were identified and grouped into basic (iqra’) and advanced (tahsin) levels, appropriate learning methods were selected, and supporting learning media were prepared. The action phase involved individual and small-group mentoring, guided Qur’an reading with direct correction of pronunciation (makharij al-huruf) and tajwid, application of memorization and dictation (imla’) techniques, and varied teaching approaches through instructor rotation. Evaluation was conducted through pre-tests and post-tests, direct observation of students’ reading performance, and assessment of participation and attendance. The results indicate a significant improvement in students’ Qur’anic reading skills, particularly in fluency, accuracy of pronunciation, and basic understanding of tajwid. This program is expected to serve as a sustainable model for improving Qur’anic literacy in Qur’anic learning institutions.

This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the Al-Qur’an Juz 30 tahfiz program at MI Darul Falah Konawe by applying the CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product) evaluation model. The method used in this study is descriptive qualitative by collecting data through interviews, observations, and documentation. The results of the study in the Context dimension show that the program has a very strong foundation of vision and target planning. In the Input dimension, teacher qualifications and supporting facilities are considered very adequate, but obstacles were found in the students' diverse initial abilities in reading and writing the Qur'an. The Process dimension reveals high student enthusiasm, but the implementation is hampered by limited guidance time and frequently interrupted schedules. As a result, in the Product dimension, students show very good reading quality (makhraj and tajwid), but the quantity of memorization has not yet reached the planned target. This study recommends the need to restructure the guidance schedule consistently and to provide a tahsin matriculation program to equalize students' basic abilities.

This research is framed in the topic of the application of the Yanbu'a Method in Islamic Boarding Schools. The world of education is currently faced with various changes in aspects of life in society. This is due to the rapid advancement of knowledge and technology, as well as the impact of globalization that is occurring in the world. This has an impact on religious education, especially in the teaching of the Qur'an. Not a few Qur'an teachers teach how to read the Qur'an not in accordance with the tajwid or makhorijul huruf that has been taught by the Prophet Muhammad. In addition, there is one of the most prominent obstacles in the implementation of Qur'an reading education, namely in terms of the use of Qur'an teaching methods. This is very urgent to be studied because the application of inappropriate Qur'an teaching methods can result in fatal errors in the way of reading the Qur'an. research, guided by Max Weber's qualitative approach to Verstehen theory, concluded that the obstacles encountered in implementing the Yanbu'a Method were a lack of coordination between teachers, significant differences in student abilities, low student discipline in muroja'ah (religious study), and students' busy schedules outside of Quranic study hours. Optimization of the Yanbu'a Method at Tanwirul Qulub Islamic Boarding School includes teacher training and education, grouping students based on ability, strengthening evaluation and monitoring, providing learning facilities and media, consistent lesson scheduling, and increasing student motivation.

This study discusses the implementation of the Yanbu'a Method at Pondok Pesantren Tanwirul Qulub. The education sector today faces various changes influenced by the rapid advancement of knowledge, technology, and the impact of globalization, which also affects religious education, particularly in the teaching of the Qur'an. One of the main obstacles in Qur'anic teaching is the use of methods that do not align with the tajwid or makhorijul huruf as taught by Prophet Muhammad SAW. This can lead to critical errors in reading the Qur'an. Therefore, this study aims to explore the challenges that arise in the process of teaching the Qur'an using the Yanbu'a Method at Pondok Pesantren Tanwirul Qulub, which is applied by KH. Agus Musta'in Ilyas. This research uses a qualitative approach based on Max Weber's Verstehen theory. The results show that the obstacles in implementing the Yanbu'a Method include a lack of coordination among teachers, significant differences in students' abilities, low student discipline in muroja'ah, and students' activities outside Qur'anic learning hours. To optimize the implementation of this method, it is recommended to provide teacher training and workshops, group students based on their abilities, strengthen evaluation and monitoring, establish consistent learning schedules, and increase student motivation.

Tajwid learning in rural mosque communities (DKM) is generally conventional, unstructured, and has not optimally utilized community potential, resulting in low quality of Qur’anic recitation (tahsin). This community service aims to improve the quality of santri’s Qur’anic recitation at DKM Al-Islah, Pangadegan Village, Pagelaran District, Cianjur Regency, through learning the Matan Tuhfatul Athfal using an Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach. The method applied the ABCD framework through the stages of discovery, design, delivery/action, and reflection and sustainability, involving local ustadz, DKM administrators, and santri as key participants. The results indicate that mapping and utilizing local assets successfully established a more structured, participatory, and sustainable tajwid learning system. The integration of Matan Tuhfatul Athfal with peer learning increased active participation, self-confidence, and accuracy of Qur’anic recitation among santri. Furthermore, the program strengthened the institutional capacity of the DKM and fostered a strong sense of community ownership of the learning process. This study concludes that integrating classical matan-based learning with a community empowerment approach is an effective strategy for sustainably improving the quality of Qur’anic recitation in rural DKM settings.

Learning Al-Qur’an and Hadith in secondary schools is still largely influenced by traditional assessment practices that prioritize written examinations and memorization, which are insufficient to capture students’ actual competencies. This situation often leads to less meaningful learning and limits the development of students’ deep understanding and Islamic character. In essence, Al-Qur’an and Hadith education is intended not only to ensure mastery of theoretical content but also to encourage the internalization and application of Islamic values in everyday life. For this reason, authentic assessment is viewed as a suitable approach because it evaluates learning outcomes in a more comprehensive manner, covering cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects. This study aims to analyze the implementation of authentic assessment in Al-Qur’an and Hadith learning at the secondary school level and to examine its effectiveness in improving students’ understanding and learning engagement. The research employed a quantitative method, with data collected through a Google Form questionnaire distributed to students and analyzed using descriptive analysis. The results demonstrate that authentic assessment contributes to deeper conceptual understanding, enhances practical skills such as proper Qur’anic recitation based on tajwid rules and hadith memorization, and promotes active, confident, and responsible learning attitudes. Overall, authentic assessment provides more meaningful learning experiences and represents an effective alternative assessment strategy to improve the quality of Al-Qur’an and Hadith learning in secondary schools.

Understanding tajwid material is an important aspect of learning the Qur'an. However, in practice, students often have difficulty understanding and applying tajwid rules correctly. Therefore, appropriate and effective learning methods are needed to help improve students' understanding. This study aims to improve the understanding of tajwid material in female students of class D2 at the Takhassusul Qur'an Darul Hikmah Institute through the application of the musyafahah method and the drill method. The musyafahah method emphasizes direct learning through examples of the teacher's reading that are imitated by students, while the drill method focuses on practice and repetition of material both inside and outside the classroom to strengthen students' mastery. This study used a classroom action research (CAR) approach with 17 female students in class D2 as research subjects. Data collection techniques included tests, observations, interviews, and questionnaires. The results showed that the application of the musyafahah and drill methods significantly improved students' understanding of tajwid material, as indicated by increased test scores and positive student responses to the learning process. Thus, it can be concluded that both methods are effective in improving students' understanding of tajwid material. Based on these findings, the study recommends that educators consider using the musyafahah and drill methods as alternative tajwid learning strategies to achieve more optimal learning outcomes.

This community service program was implemented to address the problem of the low quality of students' Quran reading at TPQ Al-Litfilah Nur, Situhiang Village, which was caused by the lack of implementation of a structured and sustainable tahsin learning method. This activity aims to improve students' Quran reading skills through training and mentoring using the Tilawati method combined with the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach, so that the potential and resources of the community can be optimized. The program was implemented in stages, including mapping the initial conditions of students' and teachers' abilities, training TPQ teachers on the principles and techniques of the Tilawati method, mentoring the learning process in a classical and individual manner, and evaluating the development of students' reading skills. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in the accuracy of makhraj, the application of basic tajwid, and the fluency of students' Quran reading. In addition, TPQ teachers experienced an increase in pedagogical competence and were able to apply the Tilawati method independently in teaching and learning activities. These findings indicate that strengthening community assets through targeted and participatory training can create meaningful and sustainable changes in improving the quality of Qur'an learning at the TPQ level.

This community service activity was carried out in the form of the Studi Al-Qur’an Intensif (SAINS) program as an effort to empower Qur’anic literacy among students of Universitas Negeri Makassar. The program focused on improving the ability to read and write the Qur’an, considering that some students still lacked the skill to read properly and correctly according to the rules of tajwīd. The implementation methods included a preliminary test of Qur’anic reading and writing skills, intensive mentoring through study groups, the application of the talaqqī method, and periodic evaluation through a final test. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ ability to read and write the Qur’an, a strengthened understanding of basic tajwīd, and an increased spiritual motivation to become closer to the Qur’an. In addition, the program successfully fostered a collaborative and sustainable Qur’anic learning atmosphere within the campus environment. Thus, SAINS proved to be an effective means of empowering students’ Qur’anic literacy while instilling religious values as a provision for both academic and social life.

The Qur’an is not only a source of law and moral guidance for Muslims but also a manifestation of harmony between aesthetics and ethics that shapes human spirituality. This study aims to explore the integration of aesthetic and ethical functions in Qur’anic recitation (tilawah), examining the relationship between the beauty of voice and the nobility of character in articulating the divine revelation. Using a descriptive qualitative method through a literature study, the research finds that the aesthetic aspect is reflected in the application of tajwid, melodic arrangement (maqamat), vocal beauty, and rhythmic harmony. Meanwhile, the ethical aspect is expressed through sincerity, humility, respectfulness in recitation, and the embodiment of Qur’anic values in daily life. The findings reveal that true beauty in Qur’anic recitation lies not merely in the pleasantness of the voice or technical mastery but in the purity of intention and spiritual depth of the reciter. The integration of aesthetics and ethics serves as a crucial foundation for nurturing spiritual depth, moral character, and cultural appreciation of the Qur’an, particularly in the context of Islamic education and da’wah. Thus, reading the Qur’an with both aesthetic and ethical awareness is not only an artistic expression but also an act of worship that unites beauty, morality, and devotion to Allah SWT in a holistic manner.

This study explores the development and implementation of an Augmented Reality (AR)-based learning medium to enhance students’ understanding of tajwid at Madrasah Aliyah. The background of this research stems from the limited effectiveness of conventional teaching methods and the relatively low interest of students in learning tajwid. AR-based learning was chosen because it provides a more interactive and contextualized learning experience that actively engages learners. The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model, which consists of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation stages. The participants were Madrasah Aliyah students selected as the experimental group. The findings reveal that the AR learning medium significantly improves students’ comprehension of tajwid rules compared to traditional learning approaches. Moreover, students reported high levels of satisfaction, noting that the media was engaging, user-friendly, and capable of visualizing abstract tajwid rules in a clear and accessible manner. In conclusion, integrating AR technology into Islamic education, particularly tajwid learning, holds great potential to improve learning quality while fostering students’ motivation to explore the subject more deeply.

This study aims to describe the effectiveness of tajwid learning and its influence on the Qur’an reading ability of grade XII RPL 2 students at SMKN 1 Wonosobo. The research employs a qualitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach. Data were collected through classroom observation and interviews with both the teacher and selected students. The findings indicate that the tajwid learning process in grade XII RPL 2 has been quite effective, as it is conducted in accordance with the established rules of tajwid. The use of varied teaching methods, particularly those emphasizing reading practice, has positively influenced students’ ability to recite the Qur’an correctly. Most students are able to read fluently, observe the proper length of vowels, and articulate the letters according to their correct makhraj. Nevertheless, a small number of students have not yet fully mastered the application of makharijul letters consistently, thus requiring further guidance and practice. Overall, tajwid learning in this class contributes significantly to the improvement of Qur’an reading skills, both in terms of fluency and accuracy. Furthermore, this study highlights that mastery of tajwid is crucial for preserving the authenticity of Qur’anic recitation as well as enhancing students’ understanding and appreciation of the Qur’an. Therefore, tajwid instruction not only develops technical reading skills but also plays an important role in fostering religious and spiritual values among learners.
