DINAMIKA FLOW PADA MAHASISWA PENGHAFAL AL-QUR’ANNIM.: 22107010113Aqila Nazia NiswahauthorStudents who memorize the Qur'an carry out a dual role between academic demands and the obligation to maintain their memorization, which can potentially cause stress. However, on the other hand, some of them are able to experience calmness, concentration, and full engagement during the memorization process, which are characteristics of the flow state. This study aims to obtain an understanding of the flow experiences of Qur'an memorizing students. The study uses a phenomenological qualitative approach to deeply explore the subjective experiences of the informants. The informants of the study consisted of three Qur'an memorizing students residing at Pondok Pesantren Al-Muhsin, Bantul, selected using purposive sampling based on the criteria of having memorized at least 15 juz or having memorized the Qur'an for a minimum of three years. Data were collected through semistructured interviews and observations, and then analyzed with reference to the nine aspects of flow according to Csikszentmihalyi. The results showed that all three informants had experienced flow, which most easily occurred when the challenge of memorization felt balanced with their abilities, indicated by the merging of awareness and memorization activity, having goals, the ability to independently recognize memorization errors, full concentration, loss of self-awareness of the environment, altered perception of time, and enjoyment derived from the memorization experience. A good mood, a calm environment, and support from family and the boarding house environment were the main supporting factors, while college assignments, fatigue, and technological disruptions were the most frequently encountered obstacles. The experience of flow was also understood by the three informants as a form of spiritual closeness to Allah SWT. This study concludes that flow in students who memorize the Qur'an is personal in form and intensity, but still rooted in religious motivation, which serves as the foundation for the three informants.150 Psikologi2026-08-10UIN SUNAN KALIJAGA YOGYAKARTA;FAKULTAS ILMU SOSIAL DAN HUMANIORAThesis
