Knowledge Memory in the Perspective of Islamic Educational Psychology

Abstract

Knowledge memory is a crucial aspect of the learning process, both from the perspective of modern educational psychology and Islamic education. This research aims to analyze the concept of knowledge memory from the perspective of Islamic educational psychology, including its role in knowledge formation, information management, and the character development of students. The research method used is qualitative with a literature study, analyzing books, scientific articles, and literature on Islamic educational psychology. The study results show that memory not only functions as an information storage but also as a connector of experiences, understanding, and the application of knowledge. Factors that influence knowledge memory include the quality of teaching, repetition of material, the physical and psychological condition of learners, previous experiences, as well as spiritual and emotional aspects. In Islamic education, memory reinforcement thru the memorization of the Qur’an and Hadith, focused attention, and mnemonic practices can enhance long-term memory while simultaneously developing emotional and spiritual intelligence. The integration of modern cognitive psychology principles with Islamic values results in effective, sustainable learning that can develop the character and holistic intelligence of students.
