FILOSOFI TAHFIDZ AL-QUR'AN: REINTERPRETASI METODE YANBU’A SEBAGAI SISTEM EPISTEMOLOGI (IRFANI) DALAM PEMIKIRAN PENDIDIKAN ISLAM

Abstract

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the efforts of caregivers in implementing the Yanbu’a method to maintain students' Qur'anic memorization from the perspective of Islamic educational thought. A qualitative approach with a descriptive design was used. The subjects were caregivers and students at the Wali Songo Islamic Boarding School in Wonokerto Tekung Lumajang. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The results indicate that the implementation of the Yanbu’a method is not merely a pedagogical technique to speed up memorization, but a manifestation of the irfani epistemology that maintains the sanad (chain of knowledge transmission). The process of selecting teachers with syahadah was found to be a mechanism for maintaining the sanad (chain of scholarly transmission). The practices of tashih (correction) and muraja’ah (repetition) function as instruments of tadrib (spiritual training) and tahdzib (self-purification). Students who maintain their memorization are viewed as having achieved a level of ihsan (quality) and taqwa (piety) because they successfully overcome fitnah (deviations) of the carnal soul through this systematic system. In conclusion, the Yanbu’a method represents a holistic Islamic educational system, integrating cognitive and spiritual dimensions to produce a generation of Qur'anic memorizers with noble character.
