Abstract

This study discusses the meaning of dzikr (remembrance) and nisyan (forgetting) in the Qur'an by relating them to the concept of memory in modern cognitive science. This study shows that the Qur'an not only emphasizes spiritual aspects but also pays attention to the psychological mechanisms and cognitive processes that influence how humans remember and forget various life experiences. This study uses a library research approach by examining classical interpretations, cognitive psychology literature, and other scientific sources to find consistent and complementary relationships between the two. Dzikr is understood as a spiritual activity that aims to strengthen human awareness, focus, and relationship with Allah, while fostering inner peace. From a cognitive perspective, dzikr is similar to the process of strengthening memory through repeated attention, repetition of information, and consistent mental exercises that improve memory sharpness. In contrast, nisyan does not only refer to forgetting in a biological context, but also describes spiritual negligence that causes humans to turn away from the values of truth and divine guidance. The integration of these two concepts confirms that human memory is the result of a combination of cognitive, emotional, and spiritual aspects, as well as an ever-evolving state of consciousness.

Abstract

Abstract English as a foreign language (EFL) learners from Indonesian Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) still face problems in developing their skills to read critically in TOEFL Reading comprehension. This paper reports on the application and efficiency of Gamified TOEFL Reading Training, which is the use of gamification principles into the teaching process by awarding scores, badges, leaderboards, and challenges related to reading. The aim was to improve the critical reading ability of santri (students who attend the pesantren). A one-group pretest-posttest research design with a sample size of 35 santri from a pesantren in East Java, Indonesia, was used to collect data with TOEFL Reading test, critical reading test, motivation questionnaire, and classroom observation. Analysis showed that there were significant increases in TOEFL Reading scores (mean difference = 12.4 points; p < 0.001; Cohen's d = 0.87) and critical reading skills, along with highly motivated students during learning. In addition, qualitative data showed that gamification techniques had successfully helped students reduce their anxiety when reading and work collaboratively to analyze the text. This study shows that gamification could be used as a valuable pedagogical tool to develop reading abilities in EFL students in pesantren settings and demonstrates its consistency with United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 4 (Quality Education).
