<![CDATA[The development of digital technology in the era of the 4.0 industrial revolution and society 5.0 has brought about major transformations in the field of education, including Islamic education. One of the main challenges is how to provide learning methods that are relevant to the characteristics of Generation Z, a generation that has grown up with digital devices, has a visual tendency, multitasks, and prefers interactive and fast learning models. On the other hand, Qur'anic stories are an important part of the Qur'an, rich in moral, spiritual, and educational values, but the methods of delivery still largely use conventional methods such as lectures, texts, and memorization, which are less appealing to digital generation students. Therefore, pedagogical innovation is needed to bridge this gap, one of which is through the use of Augmented Reality (AR) as a medium for Qur'anic learning. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with a library research and thematic interpretation (maudhu'i) approach to examine the values of Qur'anic stories and their potential integration with AR technology. Research data was obtained from classical and contemporary tafsir literature, educational journal articles, and the latest research results related to the application of AR. The results of the study indicate that AR can provide a more immersive, interactive, and contextual learning experience by visualizing Qur'anic stories in the form of three-dimensional objects, animations, and interactive scenarios. This has implications for increasing students' interest in learning, understanding of meaning, and memory of the moral messages contained in Qur'anic stories, such as the steadfastness of Prophet Noah, the patience of Prophet Joseph, and the courage of the Companions of the Cave. However, there are significant challenges in implementing AR, including the risk of reducing meaning due to the dominance of visual aspects over substance, ethical issues regarding the representation of Qur'anic figures, limitations in technological facilities in Islamic educational institutions, and the readiness of teachers in mastering digital devices. Thus, AR has great potential to become a strategic innovation in Islamic education that is relevant to the learning style of Generation Z while maintaining the sanctity of the values of the Qur'an. This study is expected to open a new discourse for the development of technology-based Qur'an learning methods and enrich da'wah strategies in the digital era.]]>
