Apart from being safe from radiation, Smart Hafiz has a lot of content that can provide lessons for children, especially Islamic religious learning which is packaged with songs, stories, and stories, which are equipped with audio-visuals so that children will enjoy and be more interactive with the learning content. Smart Hafiz is designed for children's safety and comfort so that children can play while learning in a fun, entertaining way without losing the educational element of this tool. A child's ability to read the Koran fluently is every parent's hope., the family environment acts as the first foundation stone which becomes the main focus of education for children to eradicate illiteracy in the Koran as well as being a filter from the bad influence of technology. This research is qualitative research using content analysis and literature study methods. This research focuses on: how urgent it is to teach the Koran to early children ; what are the features of learning the Koran in Smart Hafiz media; and how to use Smart Hafiz media to support the ability to read the Koran.
