UPAYA GURU TAHFIDZ DALAM MENINGKATKAN KOMPETENSI MENGHAFAL AL-QUR’AN PADA SISWA KELAS V SDI AL-AZIZIYAH KAPEK GUNUNG SARI LOMBOK BARAT

Abstract

This study aims to describe the efforts of tahfidz teachers in improving the competence of memorizing the Qur'an in fifth grade students of SDI Al-Aziziyah Kapek, Gunung Sari,  Lombok Barat. The competence of memorizing the Qur'an is one of the important aspects of Islamic education that requires effective learning strategies and the right psychological approach. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results showed that tahfidz teachers applied several strategies, including the talaqqi and tasmi' methods, providing spiritual and emotional motivation, and using supporting media such as murattal recordings. In addition, teachers also take an individual approach to students who have difficulty in memorizing. Supporting factors for the success of this effort include teacher commitment, support from the school environment, and parental involvement. Meanwhile, the obstacles faced include differences in student abilities, time constraints, and student concentration problems. In conclusion, the efforts of tahfidz teachers are instrumental in improving students' Qur'an memorization competence, although sustainable strategies are needed to overcome the various challenges that exist.
