PENDAHULUAN
In Muslim culture, memorizing and teaching the Qur'an is an honorable and revered process.It is important to pay attention to tajwid and comprehend the meaning of each verse when memorizing the Qur'an in addition to memorizing every word and verse (Kahlil, 2008).The Qur'an studying and teaching people are the best among you, according to a hadith.In the belief that learning the Qur'an by heart will enable one to better understand Islam, get Allah's grace and guidance, and live a more fulfilling life in line with His teachings.In the modern era, memorizing the Al-Qur'an is a task that is frequently regarded as challenging due to the time commitment required as well as the existence of the internet, gadgets, and other sophisticated devices that have diverted young people from memorizing the Al-Quran.But despite these limitations on time and difficulties, a lot of people and organizations are still dedicated to upholding the custom of memorizing the Qur'an.They apply a variety of methods and approaches, including guidance systems and technology, to make the process of memorization of the Al-Quran more effective and efficient.
The Muslim Speak Up Foundation, which offers a Teacher Training and Al-Qur'an Certification program using the Kauny Method for foundation volunteers-the majority of whom are, as we all know, members of generation Z-is one of the organizations that still upholds the idea of memorizing and studying the Qur'an.Anyone can learn and memorize the Qur'an if they have a strong desire and determination, especially young men and women as generation Z, which will become the golden generation and successor of this nation .Z has the characteristics of being ambitious, a digital user, and self-confident.With these characteristics, it is hoped that anyone can learn and memorize the Qur'an.Using the Kauny Quantum Memory technique, the Al-Qur'an was subsequently learned and memorized as a response to this.This method makes memorizing the Al-Quran an easy and joyful process by using illustrations and gestures that is directly related to the verse to be remembered.The goal is to use the Qur'anic memorizing method, with the tagline "Memorizing the Qur'an is as easy as smiling," by synchronizing the right brain, heart, and hand gestures (Luthfi Dhulkifli, 2020).
The Kauny Method's co-founder, Ustadz Habiburrahim, claimed that the revelation of Allah SWT was given to Rasulullah SAW by reading it, and that Rasulullah SAW imitated the reading so that he would not easily forget (Iqbal & Nugraha, 2018).As long as it is accurate and precise, the method to mimic it is to take your time.As stated by Allah SWT in verses 16-17 of QS Al-Qiyamah: Meaning: "Do not move your tongue to (read) the Koran because you want to quickly (master) it.Indeed, it is at Our expense to collect it (in your bosom) and (make you smart) to read it".According to him, Kauny's method is focused on two things: raising the voice and gesturing with the hands.This is so because the human body, particularly the hands, is the ideal medium for storing information.
The goal of this article is to demonstrate how effective the Kauny technique has been in assisting volunteers from the Muslim Speak Up Foundation in learning and memorization of the Al-Qur'an by examining the emergence of new innovations in these fields.This is crucial to understand in order to figure out the most suitable and effective bidding methods for young people who have other issues in today's society (Herwibowo, 2014).In terms of academic research, this article will present the most recent studies on memorization techniques used by Muslim Speak Up Foundation volunteers.This article will also offer recommendations for initiating related study that might be able to present the most recent findings regarding more suitable methodologies and other subjects.
