Memorisation enhances cognitive abilities and fosters a deeper understanding of Islamic principles. Quranic engagement also yields social benefits by preserving heritage and fostering Muslim unity. These practices contribute to holistic well-being, personal growth, and community cohesion. Further research is needed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and explore how Quranic engagement facilitates these benefits
