<![CDATA[This Community Service (PKM) activity aims to enhance the quality of students' Quranic memorization at MI Muhammadiyah Hadimulyo Metro through mentoring and a "Quick-Response Quran Memorization Competition" (Lomba Tahfidz Cepat Tepat). The initiative was driven by the importance of fostering a love for the Quran and the need for structured guidance to ensure that students' memorization improves not only in quantity but also in quality. A participatory mentoring method was employed, involving the implementation team, teachers, and students. This mentoring was integrated with the competition, which served as a means of evaluation, motivation, and enjoyable learning. The activity stages included preparation and coordination with the school, participant outreach, selection of the Juz (sections of the Quran) for the competition, establishment of assessment criteria, group formation, the competition itself, and the awarding of prizes to high-achieving students. Assessment focused on memorization fluency, recitation accuracy, application of tajwid (rules of recitation) and makharijul huruf (proper articulation of letters), as well as the students' ability to identify specific surahs and verses. The results indicate that, overall, the students at MI Muhammadiyah Hadimulyo Metro possess good Quranic memorization skills and benefit from structured guidance. Most participants achieved above-average results, although some students still faced challenges with verse recall and the application of tajwid. Awarding trophies and copies of the Quran to top performers further boosted the students' motivation and enthusiasm for memorizing and cherishing the Quran. The mentoring approach, combined with the competition, proved effective as a tool for evaluation and motivation in maintaining the quality of memorization on a sustainable basis.  ]]>
