Arabic is a foreign language commonly spoken by many people all over the world; moreover, internationally, it plays such a strategic role. Nevertheless, Indonesian non-Muslims have a relatively low interest in Arabic. We can observe it from the relatively low number of non-Muslims who major in Arabic literature in various universities all over Indonesia. Therefore, this is such an interesting phenomenon to be studied. We think that this phenomenon takes place due to their inappropriate or incorrect perceptions towards Arabic. This study is aimed at identifying various factors affecting the perception of non-Muslim students of Faculty of Humanities of Universitas Indonesia (FIB-UI) in the Class of 2020 towards Arabic. This study employs a quantitative method with a descriptive approach. The participants in this study are non-Muslim students of Faculty of Cultural Sciences of Universitas Indonesia (FIB-UI) in the Class of 2020 with the samples amounting to 53 persons. To process the data of the study, we employ an exploratory factor analysis method. Based on the results of the study, it is found out that there are 5 factors affecting their perceptions such as the introduction factor, the Arabic characteristic factor, the assessment/assumption factor, the language-as-a-religious-identity factor, and the stereotypes-of-the-Muslims factor.

This article discussed street art in Cairo after the Arab Spring ( العربي الربيع( . Revolution took place on Januari 25. 2011 when Egypt was led by the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF). This paper was aimed at elaborating how street art in Cairo served as a means of political resistance employed to resist SCAF military government. This study employed a descriptive-qualitative method, Jenkins’s (2009) participatory culture theory and Peteet’s (1996) art as a means of political resistance. This study found out that, in general, street art or graffiti in Cairo during SCAF military government era emerged in the forms of stencil and mural works. In that era, street art served as a means of political resistance employed for various purposes such as criticizing the regime, telling stories of what was going on, depicting violence and murders committed by the security forces, commemorating martyrs of the revolution and telling stories of struggle, oppression and sexual harassment towards Egyptian women, Street art offered opportunities to the community to participate there so as to express their aspirations and make Cairo’s streets and walls public space for ‘a participatory culture’. Graffiti or street art found in Cairo served as a means of political resistance. Most of the murals on the walls depicted chaotic situations of that era, commemorated events and martyrs of the revolution, and commented on the social and political situations sharply.

A mosque is the Muslims’ primary place of worship. The term ‘mosque’ is derived from an Arabic word meaning a place for sujood (salah). However, verily, not only is a mosque merely the Muslims’ place for salah, but it may also be taken advantage of as a place for enhancing social and economic conditions of the neighboring residents regardless of their races, ethnic groups and religions. This is what Jogokariyan Mosque in Yogyakarta has exemplified. Located in Jogokariyan Kampong, Mantrijeron Sub-district, Yogyakarta City, the mosque started to be built on September 20th 1966, with the initial size of which measuring 15 by 9 meter and occupying 660 square meters of land. It was inaugurated in August 1967. When directly observing it for several days in July 2018, I noticed that this Jogokariyan Mosque had many facilities, distinctions, and uniqueness that most mosques did not have in general. For instance, very few or probably no mosques had inns with dozens of rooms with three-star-hotel facilities. The mosque’s management had applied three steps in enhancing Jogokariyan residents’ quality of life from mapping, giving services, to the society’s empowerment as the completion stage. To Muslims who had not made salah jamaah at the mosque, they were officially invited like that of a wedding invitation. In the society’s prosperity sector, the mosque’s management had renovated several needy families’ houses. With those many facilities, distinctions, and uniqueness, Masjid Jogokariyan had successfully played its role as an agent of change, so this mosque became legendary and phenomenal; therefore, in 2016 the Ministry Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia bestowed it an award and made it a Pilot National Grand Mosque.

Furthermore, Arabic is an international language that has been used as one of the official languages of the United Nations since 1973. Because of these advantages, Arabic is interesting to be studied and researched by non-Arabs including by Indonesians. Arabic is studied, in addition to the purpose or because of the factors of Islam, also because of the factors of world life, for the demands of work or profession and so forth. Arabic is also one of the three old languages in the world that still exists and is used in various fields of life. The close relationship between Indonesia and Arab countries, which numbered 22 countries, also encouraged Arabic to be studied by the Indonesian population. Arabic is a part of a language that is easily learned by anyone including Indonesian people. The teaching of Arabic as a foreign language is intended so that one can master this language from various aspects: listening, speaking, reading and writing. For Indonesians, the many similarities between the Indonesian and Arabic systems both at the level of phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics will be enough to help them learn the language which includes Semito-Hamit field.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji keterkaitan antara pemikiran Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab dari Arab Saudi dengan kaum Paderi di Minangkabau. Pemikiran sang tokoh ini, akhirnya disebut dengan pemikiran Wahabi yang diterapkan kaum Paderi, terlihat dalam upaya kaum Paderi membasmi pemahaman TBC (tahayul, bid’ah dan churafat); usaha mengakhiri perang Paderi; serta dampak positif dari peristiwa tersebut terhadap masyarakat Minangkabau berdasarkan analisis teori kebudayaan C.A.Van Peursen. Metodologi yang dipakai dalam penelitian ini adalah metode penelitian kualitatif deskriptif yang menggabungkan antara teori penelitian sejarah dan teori penelitian kebudayaan. Peneliti mengumpulkan data, menganalisis data, melakukan interpretasi data, dan mengakhirinya dengan kesimpulan.. Dalam penelitian ini ditemukan bahwa adanya keterkaitan yang kuat antara gerakan kaum Paderi dengan pemikiran Wahabi, di antaranya adalah pemikiran Wahabi telah berhasil menghilangkan secara signikan paham TBC (tahayul, bid’ah dan churafat) yang sebelumnya telah merasuk ke dalam pemahaman keislaman masyarakat Minangkabau; terjadinya perdamaian antara kaum Paderi dan kaum Adat dengan menghasilkan konsensus ABS-SBK (Adat Basandi Syarak, Syarak Basandi Kitabullah) yang menjadi filosofi hidup masyarakat Minangkabau sampai saat ini. Kemudian, berdasarkan teori kebudayaan C.A Van Peursen (1988), gerakan Paderi yang dilhami oleh pemikiran Wahabi secara bertahap berhasil mengubah kebudayaan masyarakat Minangkabau dari tingkat mitis kepada tingkat kebudayaan ontologis, hingga masyarakat Minangkabau mengenal ungkapan, “Alam Takambang Jadikan Guru.”

This study examines effective strategies for teaching Arabic reading skills using qualitative research methods, a case study, and a thematic approach. It aims to formulate practical techniques and procedures to enhance Arabic reading proficiency. Reading skills, a crucial component of language acquisition, encompass various forms, such as loud reading, silent reading, intensive reading, extensive reading, critical reading, basic reading, analytical reading, interactive reading, and inferential reading. This study uses a qualitative approach using descriptive methods and employs two frameworks: the thematic approach and the case study approach. The study highlights how teaching Arabic as a second language has evolved to align with digital advancements, with software and platforms like Al Jazeera Arabic Learning playing a pivotal role. These tools provide structured modules to facilitate language learning, offering students and educators innovative approaches to reading comprehension. The findings suggest that integrating digital tools into language curricula can enhance the effectiveness of teaching strategies and foster greater engagement among learners. Future research should explore the long-term impact of digital tools on Arabic language acquisition, compare traditional and digital methods, and develop specific frameworks for integrating technology into Arabic education. Additionally, investigating students' and teachers' perceptions of these tools could inform the development of more user-centered educational technologies.

This study analyzes the kafala system in the Middle East, which is often regarded as a form of modern slavery against migrant workers. While the system has been examined from various perspectives, this research focuses on the relationship between the kafala system and Middle Eastern culture, as well as the influence of cultural factors on its persistence and implementation in the contemporary era. The study employs a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach based on secondary data, including books, journal articles, and international reports. The theoretical framework used is the Cultural Lag Theory developed by William Ogburn (1922). The analysis reveals that the current kafala system is a combination of traditional Middle Eastern cultural practices and the legacy of British colonialism during the 1970s, which has since evolved over time. Despite widespread international criticism, the system persists due to cultural values in the Middle East that support social hierarchy and control over foreign workers. Various reforms have been implemented to improve the welfare of migrant workers. This study affirms that understanding cultural factors is crucial in formulating a policy analysis basis and diplomatic strategies to strengthen the protection of Indonesian migrant workers.
