Memorizing mutasyabihat verses in the Qur’an is particularly challenging due to similarities in structure, linguistic patterns, and semantic density that place a heavy load on short-term memory. Conventional memorization approaches do not account for individual cognitive differences when dealing with verse complexity. This study proposes an adaptive recommender system based on cognitive modeling to align verse group selection with the user’s memory profile.The system models memory capacity as a multidimensional profile using fuzzy inference derived from three quantitative indicators: continuous memory score, total correct recall, and average response time. This profile is matched with verse group feature vectors through a profile matching approach and a weighted Euclidean distance similarity measure within a Multi-Attribute Decision Making (MADM) framework. Four verse characteristics are considered: thematic (35%), semantic (25%), linguistic (25%), and pattern (15%).An adaptive calibration phase combines 20% of the initial cognitive profile with 80% of actual memorization performance, reflecting the dominance of behavioral evidence over initial assessment. System evaluation employs the Top-N Accuracy method commonly used in recommender systems.Testing with 29 participants resulted in a Top-3 success rate of 66% and an overall Top-N accuracy of 62.07%. These results indicate that cognitive profile–based multidimensional similarity can adaptively match verse complexity to individual memory capacity. This study demonstrates that fuzzy cognitive modeling and profile matching can be effectively implemented in adaptive personalized learning systems to optimize memorization of mutasyabihat verses
