Globalization has led to a shift in custom in the world of education from conventional face-to-face meetings to become more overt. Education in the future will be more flexible, open, and accessible to anyone without gender and age limits.
Information networks will play more roles that enable students to interact and collaborate so that they are not only oriented towards school buildings (Alenezi, 2015& Budiman, 2017Lubis et al. 2011). In dealing with these situations, education needs to make adjustments to be relevant to the time demands. According to Nata (2016) & , the concept of education in the global era must be comprehensive, where education can balance and integrate the concepts of cognitive, technological, self-actualization, social reconstruction, and academic rational. The impact of technology-based media education that is growing rapidly today has affected all fields of education both in primary, secondary, and even tertiary education, including the Islamic Religious Education scope.

Digital content is inseparable from the life of millennial generation. Based on data from the Indonesian Internet Service Providers Association in 2018, digital content is included in the 10 major categories of the main reasons people use internet. This phenomenon is a remarkable potential, especially for the world of Islamic education in the effort of Islamic education through digital content.

Literatur Review
Research related to the use of instructional media in schools has been widely carried out by previous researchers, for example Hardianto (2011) et al. (2018) the use of instructional media has been able to influence the interests and learning outcomes of students, therefore teachers need to design the learning with a variety of approaches including using media technology, because the task of a person in learning is not only as a designer of learning plans manually such as syllabi or plans learning but is also required to be creative in designing various media that can support learning outcomes.
The importance of the use of instructional media in Islamic education is also expressed by Arwani (2011), the research conducted found that if teachers were creative and able to use media in learning, it turns out the learning atmosphere would be more interesting and even able to increase students' motivation. Among the multimedia, those that can be used by the teacher are text, graphics, sound, animation, and images.
Basically, the use of media is not only to increase students' understanding and motivation in learning, but based on the results of a research conducted by Agus (2019) the use of learning media such as audio visuals is also proven to be able to develop and enhance students' hearing sensory stimuli in Islamic religious learning.
Visual media also plays an important role because it can foster students' interest and connect the material contents with the real world. By using these media, learning materials can be presented more attractively and in more effective ways.
With regard to the use of Free Quran Education as a source and medium of learning as an issue to be discussed in this article, according to Ab Rahman et al. The significance of using media as a learning tool in Islamic education is not only needed to be integrated in schools, but is also needed at the tertiary level.

Findings and Discussion
Based on the analysis results conducted by the writers on eight videos contained in the YouTube Free Quran Education channel, in general the writers found six  Islamic education is an educational process that has Islamic values orienting towards two goals, namely world life and the hereafter (Mappasiara, 2018). In addition, Islamic education is also used as a center in molding students who are characterized, responsible, with integrity, thinking critically in accordance with Islamic teachings and values (Murniyetti et al. 2016). Moreover, Islamic education is a means of transforming religious knowledge into values and morals to form attitudes that can control behavior so as to create the true human characters (Ainiyah, 2013).
The learning media is a way or a means of communication connecting between educators and students to improve the effectiveness of communication and interaction between the two in the learning process at school (Umar, 2014). This means that the potential of technology application as a medium of learning today is very wide because, in general, students in Indonesia are the most users of Information Digital learning media is one of technology-based education. Digital learning implements a web-based or digital learning system that allows students and instructors to communicate interactively. There are at least two advantages of digital media as learning media, they are fun media and the interaction done in real time or a real time (Erhel & Jamet, 2013;Mulyaningsih et al. 2017). In discussing about education and learning through media, it is necessary to comprehend the concept of educational methods in Islam. The educational method in Islam is a tool used in the learning process with the aim of forming attitudes and human personality based on the principles of Islamic teachings in consonance with the Qur'an and Hadith in both formal and informal learning so that education runs effectively and efficiently (Hai, 2017).
The development of media and technology demands alteration in all aspects.
Because of this technological change, there are at least two requirements that must be fulfilled in a content. The first is the contents or content. The second is the visual or design of the content. In addition, quality is the most influential to the attitude and interest of the audience towards the content (Mardiastika, 2012 elements in audio and visual elements that are more innovative and creative in the process of religious learning. In the context of learning Islamic Religious Education required six materials that must be studied by students in school. The six materials can be seen in Picture 1 below:

In the title Tafseer Surah Al-Kauthar (Kinetic Typography), it is part of the study of the interpretation of the Qur'an presented by Nouman Ali Khan as a Muslim scholar who is expert in the study of Arabic and the interpretation of the Qur'an. Nouman uses a thematic style interpretation method (maudhui) whose teaching focuses on certain themes of certain verses, letters or Juz in the Qur'an (Hairul, 2019: Huda & Hussin, 2010Kusumaputri, 2011).). The interpretation material is conveyed with information that includes the identity of the surah, the meaning of the word per verse and its correlation with the same context in other surah. In addition, the deepening of meaning in language according to the context of the theme provides a deeper level of understanding so that it is not only reading the verse but also deepening the meaning. The contents of the video include a discussion of the stages to learn Arabic through the vocabulary contained in the Qur'an so that it can facilitate us to understand the words of Allah (kalamullah) when reading the Qur'an and the Salaah recitation.
