Implementasi Tahfiz Al Qur'an Dalam Kurikulum Sekolah Untuk Meningkatkan Prestasi Akademik Siswa Di Mis Al-Hikmah Namorambe

This study aims to describe the integration of Qur’an memorization (Tahfiz Al-Qur’an) into the school curriculum, identify the challenges encountered, and formulate optimization strategies to improve academic achievement in the Qur’an Hadith subject at MIS Al-Hikmah Namorambe. This research employed a descriptive qualitative method with data collection techniques including interviews, observations, and documentation. The research informants consisted of the principal, Tahfiz teachers, and fifth-grade students. The findings reveal that the integration of Tahfiz Al-Qur’an is implemented through the structured scheduling of memorization programs within the curriculum, linking memorization materials to Qur’an Hadith lessons, applying a gradual learning method, conducting regular muraja’ah (revision), and carrying out periodic assessments. The challenges identified include a heavy school workload, inappropriate scheduling, difficulties in memorizing long verses, a less conducive classroom atmosphere, and limited support from the home environment. Recommended optimization strategies include scheduling at optimal times, applying chunking and spaced repetition methods, grouping students according to ability, creating a conducive classroom environment, and involving parents in muraja’ah activities at home. In conclusion, the integration of Tahfiz Al-Qur’an can enhance academic achievement in the Qur’an Hadith subject if implemented with careful planning, adaptive methods, and adequate support from the learning environment
