COMMUNITY SERVICE IN ENHANCING THE INTEREST OF ELDERLY PEOPLE IN LEARNING THE QUR'AN
Downloads
Objective: The urgency of strengthening religious values is not only relevant to the younger generation but also crucial for the elderly, especially in maintaining spiritual enthusiasm and quality of life in old age. This community service program aims to increase the interest of elderly individuals in learning and reading the Qur'an. Method: The activity was conducted using a descriptive qualitative approach through observation, documentation, and participatory interviews. Data analysis was carried out by collecting, presenting, condensing, and drawing conclusions from the information obtained. Results: The results show that elderly people have a strong potential to engage in Qur'anic learning when supported by methods suitable to their needs and capacities. Strategies applied include relaxed and flexible learning sessions, spiritual motivation reinforcement, and emotionally sensitive, socially inclusive approaches tailored to senior learners. Novelty: This program demonstrates that Qur'anic education for the elderly not only strengthens their religious understanding but also serves as a medium for emotional and social empowerment in later life.
