Abstract: Waqf and ibtida are essential disciplines in Quranic recitation that function as key elements in preserving the accuracy of meaning and the integrity of interpretation. They determine the proper places to pause and begin during recitation, ensuring that the message of the Quran is conveyed in accordance with its intended context. However, in modern contexts, several challenges have emerged, including a lack of standardization in teaching methods, limited awareness among students and reciters, and the need for contemporary applications that address new pedagogical and technological settings. Therefore, this article aims to discuss issues related to waqf and ibtida in Quranic recitation and to propose guiding principles that can strengthen their practice in modern contexts. This qualitative study employs documentation and analytical methods to examine both classical scholarship and contemporary perspectives. The findings of this study highlight the importance of systematic guidelines that can be applied in educational institutions, Quranic learning circles, and digital platforms to ensure that waqf and ibtida continue to serve their purpose as tools for correct understanding and spiritual engagement with the Quran. It is hoped that this study can contribute as a reference for scholars, educators, and institutions in developing frameworks for the effective teaching and application of waqf and ibtida in the contemporary era.
