Peran Mahasiswa Kkn Mandiri Dalam Pembinaan Kemampuan Membaca Al-Qur’an Anak-Anak Di Berkah Rumah Belajar Sari Rejo

Abstract

The Community Service Program (KKN) is a form of student service to the community aimed at applying academic knowledge to real-life situations. One of the main focuses of the Independent KKN Program at Berkah Rumah Belajar Sari Rejo is fostering children’s ability to read the Qur’an as an effort to improve Qur’anic literacy from an early age. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach using observation, interviews, and documentation techniques. The students act as facilitators and mentors in the Qur’an learning process through interactive methods such as the Iqra’ method, talaqqi, and educational play-based approaches. The results show a significant improvement in the children’s Qur’an reading ability in terms of fluency, pronunciation of hijaiyah letters, and accuracy of tajwid. In addition, the children’s learning interest increased as a result of the enjoyable learning environment. This program not only enhances the technical ability to read the Qur’an but also strengthens spiritual values, builds children’s character, and fosters closer social relationships among students, the community, and the learning center’s administrators. The success of this activity serves as a tangible example of the strategic role of university students as agents of change in strengthening non-formal religious education within the community.
