To assess the competence increase before and after flashcard use, data were collected via observation, interviews, and questionnaires. The findings showed that employing flashcards can enhance teachers' comprehension and abilities to provide daily prayers in a more systematic and effective manner. Moreover, this approach enhances students' interest in learning, making the learning process more interactive. Therefore, flashcard media can operate as an innovative option for learning daily prayers at TPQ and can help in the development of a more qualified Qur'anic generation. This study suggests that the design and variety of learning media should be further developed to enhance teaching effectiveness in TPQ. The results of the study showed an increase in the average teacher competency score from 62,5 to 85,3 after the use of flashcards (an increase of 36.48%). Therefore, flashcards can be an innovative choice for teaching daily prayers at TPQs and can help develop a higher quality Qur'anic generation.
