Abstract

the same previous discussion has not been found to specifically discuss Alzheimer’s in the Qur’an. The purpose of this study was to find ways or strategies to minimize the symptoms of Alzheimer’s so it doesn’t get worse. The concept of the Qur’an has clearly explained about senile dementia, it is even further clarified in the hadith of the Prophet that senile dementia can be prevented in severity and tends to be a disease that is parallel to stinginess and laziness. Everyone’s condition is different, so the impact of Alzheimer’s is different. The thing that affects the appearance of Alzheimer’s symptoms is a progressive brain disorder that causes memory loss, thinking abilities, and behavioural changes when a person gets older. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method to explore the concepts and indications as well as the actions needed to minimize the emergence of Alzheimer’s disease in the elderly of every Muslim. The concept of the Qur’an will certainly help minimize Alzheimer’s with the Prophet’s advice in his hadith to always ask Allah to be kept away from senile disease, and be equipped with real efforts. This research implies that there are several ways or strategies to stimulate elderly people from senility by memorizing the Qur’an, of course starting from childhood and continuing until old age. It aims to minimize the symptoms of Alzheimer’s so that it does not become a social burden.
