Early childhood is considered a golden age characterized by rapid development in memory and learning abilities. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Tikrar method in helping kindergarten children memorize hadiths and short surahs at TK ABA 25 Medan Perjuangan, as well as to identify supporting factors, obstacles, and solutions implemented by educators. This study employed a qualitative approach using a case study design. Data were collected through observations, in-depth interviews with tahfiz teachers and homeroom teachers, and documentation, and were analyzed descriptively. The findings indicate that the Tikrar method was implemented through systematic and interactive repetition by combining oral repetition, body movements, visual aids, and rhythmic recitation. This approach improved children's memory, fluency, and accuracy in memorization. Supporting factors included consistent memorization schedules, teacher creativity, and parental involvement. Meanwhile, differences in children's abilities and concentration were addressed through gradual repetition, individualized approaches, and collaboration between the school and parents.
