When the internet has become the main reference source for academics and students in completing their assignments, critical attitudes towards information accessed via the internet, especially about hadith are often ignored. Critical attitude is needed to ensure the authenticity of a hadith because its discourse has a level of quality, be it sahih hadith (authentic, accepted) or da'if (rejected). Along with the development of internet technology, many false hadith s are circulating on the internet. Therefore, adequate literacy skills in reading and tracing the authenticity of a hadith are needed. This research provides examples of the results of collaborative team work to improve hadith literacy. Action Research Design was chosen to find solutions to problems through critical reflection in the process of learning Al-Qur’an. The Action Research procedures were combined with the Kern’s 3R model namely Responding, Revising, and Reflecting. This study involved 398 students as research participants at one of the higher education institutions in West Java, Indonesia. This research resulted in several findings: 1) Six steps were taken to improve hadith literacy, namely the formulation of learning objectives, selection of media, update of the knowledge of hadith , understanding the learning media, application of learning media, and evaluation. 2) Two applications were used as learning media in improving hadith literacy, namely the science of hadith and the Ensiklopedi Hadits Kitab 9 Imam (EHK9I, Encyclopedia of Hadith in the book of 9 Imams). 3) The reflective actions and the integration of the two applications showed an increase in three aspects of literacy namely data literacy (54.33%), technological literacy (63.07%), and human literacy related to narration of the hadith (93.59%). It can be concluded that the steps taken by utilizing the two applications as learning media can improve the participants’ ability to trace and determine the authenticity of a hadith . https://doi.org/10.26803/ijlter.19.5.6
