Urgensi Murājaʻah dalam Menjaga Hafalan Al-Quran dalam Shahih Bukhari dan Shahih Muslim
Keywords:
Murājaʻah, Hadith, Quran Memorization.Abstract
Murājaʻah is one of the essential principles in maintaining Quran memorization, emphasized in numerous Prophetic traditions. The background to this study arises from the phenomenon of weakening memory of Quran memorizers after memorization due to a lack of consistent murājaʻah. This study aims to analyze thematic hadiths on murājaʻah, explore its urgency as a moral and spiritual obligation, and examine its correlation with modern theories of memory psychology. This study uses a qualitative-descriptive method with thematic analysis techniques on relevant hadiths. The results show that murājaʻah is a form of ongoing worship, a reflection of spiritual responsibility to revelation, and an indicator of closeness to God. Murājaʻah also plays a crucial role in maintaining the sanad (chain of transmission) and the authenticity of memorization, and distinguishes between memorizers and ordinary readers. Its correlation with the psychology of memory demonstrates that the principle of murājaʻah aligns with scientific methods for strengthening long-term memory. The main findings of this study underscore that murājaʻah is not only a religious need, but also a cognitive one that must be systematically managed in contemporary tahfiz education.
