Developing An Effective Quran Memorisation Technique Using Fuzzy Delphi Method

The main objective of the tahfiz curriculum is to create a generation of huffaz (the memorisers of the Quran) who remember the entire Quran to preserve its content from any distortion, addition and deviation. Every student is required to memorise and remember all 6236 verses from the Quran in a stipulated period. Previous studies found that the tahfiz students in Malaysia are facing difficulties in memorising the entire Quran in the predetermined time. Most of the issues and problems faced by them because they are not exposed to an effective and systematic method in memorising the Quran. Given the serious performance issues of tahfiz students in Malaysia, research is needed to develop an effective Quran memorisation technique. For that purpose, the researchers have come out with specific techniques in memorising the Quran from books that became the primary reference in the field of tahfiz using document analysis. Next, the researchers used Fuzzy Delphi Method to validate the Quran memorisation techniques. The Fuzzy Delphi Method is applied in this research to obtain views and consensus from the experts in a structured manner. This research used document analysis and quantitative method. In conclusion, 22 memorisation techniques were drafted and approved by the experts in the field of tahfiz al-Quran education.   Keywords: Tahfiz, curriculum, memorise, al-Quran, method.
