<![CDATA[Curriculum modernization in Islamic boarding schools is essential to address the demands of contemporary challenges. This study stems from the importance of a structured curriculum in pesantren (Islamic boarding schools), particularly in managing students from diverse backgrounds. PPTQ Baitul 'Abidin Darussalam addresses this issue by implementing the I’dad program for new students. The program aims to strengthen Qur'anic spirituality (Spiritual Quotient/SQ), improve students’ proficiency in Qur’anic recitation and articulation (makhārij al-ḥurūf), and support them in overcoming difficulties in memorizing the Qur’an (Adversity Quotient/AQ). The objectives of this study are: (1) To explore the implementation of the I’dad program in Qur’an memorization at PPTQ Baitul 'Abidin Darussalam, (2) To examine the concepts of Adversity Quotient and Spiritual Quotient within the context of tahfīẓ al-Qur’an, and (3) To analyze the implications of the I’dad program in enhancing AQ and SQ values among female students. This is a field research using a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation related to the I’dad program. The data were analyzed using the techniques of data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results show that the I’dad Tahfidz al-Qur’an program is a preparatory program lasting six months, specifically designed for first-year students at the pesantren. The concept of AQ in memorizing the Qur'an involves managing challenges and turning them into motivation for success. Meanwhile, SQ is developed through consistent religious practices such as sunnah prayers, fasting, and repetitive Qur’an recitation (e.g., reading a verse forty times), which cultivate values such as sincerity, perseverance, patience, steadfastness (istiqāmah), responsibility, humility, enthusiasm, and discipline]]>
