The decline in students motivation and effectiveness in memorizing the Quran raises concerns about the sustainability of traditional approaches in Islamic education. Although the tahfidz program is central in strengthening students religiosity, existing practices are still partial, lack structured methods, and are not equipped with systematic evaluation. This indicates the urgency of developing innovative techniques that remain based on Islamic culture and can foster consistency, interest, and quality in students memorization. This study aims to explore the implementation of the sambung ayat method in improving students ability to memorize the Quran by examining the stages of planning, implementation, and evaluation applied in the school context. The research method uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive phenomenological design, conducted at MAS Plus Al-Ulum Medan in the 2025/2026 academic year. The research subjects were selected purposively, including teachers, students, and the head of the madrasah, who were directly involved in the tahfidz program. Data were obtained through semi-structured in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation studies. Data analysis followed Moustakas phenomenological steps, while data validity was maintained through methodological and source triangulation. The results showed that the sambung ayat method significantly improved students memorization fluency, as indicated by a reduction in errors and hesitations compared to before its implementation. Students were more enthusiastic and active, while a structured mechanism for monitoring progress assisted teachers. Weekly evaluations strengthened memory and provided constructive feedback. The verse-linking method offers a practical and empirical approach to optimizing Quran memorization. This study contributes by providing a conceptual and empirical basis for contextual, structured, and interactive tahfidz innovation while guiding the development of pedagogy and teacher training policies.

Conclusion

The research confirms that implementing the *sambung ayat* method at MAS Plus Al-Ulum Medan significantly enhances students Quran memorization abilities.The method fosters a more focused and continuous learning process, leading to improved fluency and reduced errors.This approach, combined with structured monitoring and regular evaluation, not only boosts memorization skills but also cultivates student enthusiasm and a deeper connection with the Quran.

Future Research

Further research should investigate the long-term retention of memorized verses using the *sambung ayat* method to assess its sustained impact on students hafalan. Additionally, exploring the adaptation of this method for diverse learning styles, including visual and kinesthetic learners, could broaden its applicability and effectiveness. Finally, a comparative study examining the *sambung ayat* method against other established tahfidz techniques would provide valuable insights into its unique strengths and potential for wider implementation, potentially leading to the development of a more comprehensive and personalized tahfidz curriculum that caters to the individual needs of students and enhances the overall quality of Quranic education. These studies should also consider the role of technology in supporting and enhancing the *sambung ayat* method, such as developing interactive digital tools for practice and evaluation.
