Kapanlagi.com - Fairuz A Rafiq and Sonny Septian have their own unique approach to parenting. They have a creative way to motivate their children to memorize the Qur'an, which is by implementing a reward system to encourage their children in memorizing the Qur'an. Both Fairuz A Rafiq and Sonny Septian believe that applying a reward system is effective in fostering a spirit of religious learning in children.
With her experience as a mother of three, Fairuz and Sonny realize the importance of religious education. They want their children, King Faaz Arafiq, Queen Eljaz Slofa, and King Zhafi Zayyan Slofa, to have a strong foundation in faith. Through the reward system, they hope their children will be more enthusiastic about memorizing the Qur'an.
1. Apply the Reward System

Fairuz explained that this system makes her children more motivated to compete in doing good deeds. She often reads the meanings of verses from the Qur'an to enhance her children's understanding.
"There is a reward. It motivates the children based on the two of us, so that the children are increasingly motivated to memorize the Qur'an," said Fairuz when met in the Jalan Kapten Tendean area, Mampang, South Jakarta, Tuesday (3/4/2025).
"Sometimes I read the meaning, so they know that the stories of the prophets are in the Qur'an. What is prohibited or allowed by Allah is there. They become more critical," explained Fairuz.
2. Create Daily Notes for Children

In addition, Fairuz and Sonny also provide daily notes for their children. These notes contain a record of prayers, memorization, and good deeds performed by the children every day.
"Sometimes they compete, masya Allah, competing in goodness. For example, if the younger sibling has memorized, the older brother hasn't. They show each other who is doing the best," added Fairuz.
3. Has a Concept Similar to Heaven & Hell
Sonny mentioned that this reward system has similarities with the concepts of heaven and hell in Islam. Children are given an understanding that every action has consequences.
"Allah also gives heaven and hell. Heaven is for those who are pious, who follow His commands and avoid His prohibitions. Hell is for those who do not want to follow His commands. It’s the same as introducing children to the idea that if they do good deeds, they will receive rewards," he said.
4. Enthusiastic in Performing Worship
Fairuz also shared that her children are now more enthusiastic in performing worship. They feel happy when they receive praise or small rewards for their efforts.
Through this approach, the couple hopes their children will grow up to be religious individuals, full of responsibility, and with a deep love for their faith.
