Abstract

This study examines the representation of fatherhood in visual da’wah content on social media, which plays an important role in shaping religious understanding and parenting practices within Muslim families. Situated within the fields of digital da’wah and Islamic communication, this study aims to analyze how fatherhood discourse is constructed through illustrative content on the Instagram account @abun_nada and to examine the role of visual, verbal, and layout elements in articulating Islamic moral teachings such as compassion, responsibility, and moral exemplarity. Employing a qualitative approach, this study applies multimodal discourse analysis to 24 purposively selected visual da’wah posts published on the Instagram account @abun_nada between November 2024 and November 2025. The posts were selected based on recurring fatherhood themes, father-child representations, and the integration of visual and verbal elements relevant to multimodal analysis. The findings indicate that the father figure is represented not as a hierarchical authority, but as a relational figure who constructs authority through caregiving actions, dialogic interaction presented through captions and direct speech, and emotional involvement represented through intimate visual framing and everyday interactions with children. These multimodal elements enable moral and religious meanings to be communicated implicitly, allowing da’wah to operate as a lived moral practice embedded in everyday experience. This study contributes to the development of digital da’wah and multimodal communication studies by demonstrating how Islamic parenting values and fatherhood norms are negotiated through relational representations on social media.

Abstract

This study aims to explore how first-year students experience and engage in Arabic vocabulary learning through Instagram at an International Open University. Using a qualitative descriptive–exploratory design, the study focuses on students lived learning experiences rather than merely examining learning outcomes or media effectiveness. Data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews with ten first-semester students and complemented by observations of their Instagram learning activities. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify patterns of perception, engagement, and meaning construction in students’ learning experiences. The findings reveal three interrelated dimensions of Instagram-based vocabulary learning. First, students perceive Instagram as a contextual and relevant learning space that provides practical vocabulary connected to everyday communication. Second, the learning process is experienced as light, visual, and motivating due to the platform’s multimodal content, which facilitates comprehension and reduces learning pressure. Third, students demonstrate selective and autonomous participation, primarily by viewing and saving posts rather than actively interacting. The study highlights that meaningful digital vocabulary learning is shaped not only by platform features but also by contextual relevance, affective experience, and learner autonomy, positioning Instagram as a complementary informal learning space that supports formal Arabic language instruction in higher education
