Islamic religious education is an important aspect of Muslim life, and learning Arabic and Hijaiyah letters is an integral part of Islamic education. The use of augmented reality (AR) technology in educational setting is rapidly increasing. This study aims to apply the AR concepts to the creation of mobile Hijaiyah letters using Multimedia Development Life Cycle (MDLC) methodology. The application of AR in this application allows users to interactively learn each hijaiyah letter. Through a mobile device camera, users can see hijaiyah letters that appear virtually on the device screen. The development of this application is based on the needs of users in understanding hijaiyah letters in a more attractive and interactive way. Thus, this application is expected to facilitate users, especially children, to learn hijaiyah letters more effectively.
