Abstract

Textbooks play an essential role in learning, especially in foreign language learning such as Arabic, which has its complexities. The quality of textbooks greatly determines the success of the teaching and learning process. A good textbook must meet certain criteria to ensure its effectiveness in helping students understand the materials. However, there are currently many choices of Arabic textbooks. However, content errors are still found, so a feasibility analysis is required. This study evaluates the feasibility of an Arabic textbook for grade IX published by the Directorate of KSKK Madrasah, using Tomlinson's theory, which includes 16 criteria for good textbooks. This research uses qualitative methods with content analysis techniques. The first step in this research is to compile an instrument in the form of a checklist table consisting of several assessment indicators according to Tomlinson's criteria. Then, the textbook was analyzed comprehensively to assess the suitability of the content with the instrument. The obtained data were then calculated and converted into percentages to determine the feasibility category. The analysis results show that the Arabic textbook for grade IX is highly suitable for Tomlinson's criteria. With a score of 58 out of a maximum score of 64, or 90%, this textbook falls into the “Good” category. This conclusion is supported by high scores on most of the assessment indicators, indicating that this textbook meets the established standards in various aspects of foreign language learning. The Arabic textbook for grade IX is reckoned as a highly feasible learning media. However, some aspects still require improvement, such as aspects of variety, unplanned discourse, optional extras, etc. Improvements in these aspects aim to improve the quality of textbooks, which impacts the effectiveness of learning and ensures student achievement is in line with the expected competencies.

Abstract

This study presents analysis by the increasing interest of adults in learning Arabic, but they still face various obstacles such as limited time, low motivation to learn, and limited access to flexible learning media. This study aims to analyze the use of the Memrise application as a medium for learning Arabic vocabulary using an andragogical approach. The approach used is descriptive qualitative, with data collection through observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation. The research subjects were adult beginners who have never studied Arabic and have used the Memrise app for 14 days. Data analysis was conducted using the Miles and Huberman model, including data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate that Memrise is effective for adult learners because it supports independent, flexible, and adaptive learning processes. Features such as native speaker audio, spaced repetition, and gamification help with vocabulary retention and learning motivation. User score documentation shows consistent daily improvement, reflecting the success of independent and continuous learning. Furthermore, the vocabulary material presented is relevant to the context of learners' daily lives, thereby accelerating the process of internalizing meaning. Despite the limitations of the free version's features, learners can still maximize the learning process. This study concludes that Memrise is a relevant digital learning medium for adult learners in mastering Arabic vocabulary in a practical and sustainable manner.

Abstract

This research investigates the articulation of the lateral phoneme /l/ in an Arabic speaking post-ischemic stroke patient using acoustic phonetic analysis and Praat software. Speech data were obtained from the patient’s Qur’anic recitation. The Qur’anic recitation was selected because it serves as a controlled phonetic corpus standardized through the rules of tajwīd, ensuring precise and consistent sound production, which makes it highly suitable for acoustic analysis requiring reliable comparison with native-speaker models. The model speaker was Sheikh Mishary Rasyid Al-Afasy. The analysis focused on the production of /l/ in the vocalic contexts /la/, /li/, and /lu/. The analysis of the surrounding vowels /a/, /i/, and /u/ was essential because these vowels provide the coarticulatory environment that directly shapes the articulation of /l/, allowing vowel impairments to explain disruptions in the target phoneme. The vowel /a/ had a certain degree of impairment on the vowel with increased duration and heightened laryngeal tension. The speech parameters that demonstrated /i/ had a reduction in trunk selective control, thus centralising the vowel. Furthermore, production of the vowel /u/, the most devoid of articulation and therefore the most significant impairment, was characterised by reduced precision with respect to the production of the manner of articulation, as well as marked reduction in coordination of the high and low tongue, and the lips. The severity of the impairment was ranked as /lu/, /li/, /la/. The acoustic baseline identified in this study offers a diagnostic basis for developing targeted, step-by-step speech therapy programs for Arabic-speaking post-stroke patients, directly supporting clinical SLP in this demographic.

Abstract

One of the cooperative learning models is the Inside Outside Circle (IOC) learning method. The IOC-Post to Post Game method combines elements of cooperative learning with the Post to Post Game. In the IOC-Post to Post Game students work together in teams by exchanging information and collaborating to complete a given task or order. 21st-century learning requires students to have 21st-century skills to face future challenges. Based on that, a learning method is needed to achieve learning goals and train essential skills for 21st-century learners, including in Arabic language learning. In Arabic language learning, vocabulary mastery is the main foundation that must be possessed. A study conducted at MI Nurul Huda in the third grade aims to determine whether there is an influence of collaborative learning methods through IOC-Post to Post Game on students' mastery of vocabulary in the third grade. This study used a quantitative approach, namely a Quasi-Experiment with Nonequivalent Control Group Design. The data collection techniques used were tests in the form of pre-tests and post-tests and non-tests in the form of interviews and documentation. The findings of this study are that the collaborative learning method IOC-Post to Post Game has an effect on students' understanding of vocabulary with a moderate level of effectiveness, with an N-Gain Score of 0.320, and the collaborative learning method IOC-Post to Post Game has a positive impact on students' activity and social skills.

Abstract

This study explores phonological errors in the pronunciation of Arabic scriptural references by participants in the Islamic Fest 2024 speech contest, analyzing underlying psycholinguistic factors. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach with phonetic and psycholinguistic perspectives, data were collected from two purposively selected participants' speech videos. Analysis involved an observe-and-note technique complemented by Praat software to examine acoustic features. Findings reveal two primary categories of phonological errors: linguistic errors, stemming from inadequate mastery of letter articulation points (makhraj) and vowel length (mad), and performative errors, driven by psychological pressures like nervousness and cognitive load within the competitive context. Both error types influence the conveyed meaning of scriptural references, potentially leading to semantic ambiguity. This study recommends developing da'wah (Islamic preaching) training programs that integrate phonetic, psycholinguistic, and semantic approaches to enhance pronunciation accuracy and semantic clarity in religious communication.

Abstract

This study examines the acoustic realization of the velar stop /k/ and the uvular stop /q/ in the recitation of Surah Al-‘Alaq, with particular attention to the role of articulatory training. Using acoustic analysis, the study investigates spectral and temporal parameters across readers with different levels of tahsin training, focusing on the second formant (F2) and segmental duration as correlates of place-of-articulation contrast. The results indicate that the distinction between /k/ and /q/ is most consistently reflected in spectral properties. The uvular stop /q/ shows systematically lower F2 values than /k/, reflecting posterior tongue dorsum retraction associated with uvular articulation, even within the highly regulated context of Qur’anic recitation. In contrast, segmental duration does not display a consistent distinction between the two consonants, suggesting that temporal cues are strongly influenced by suprasegmental constraints such as tempo regulation and rhythmic organization. Differences across participant groups further suggest that articulatory training contributes to greater stability in spectral realization. Readers with tahsin training demonstrate more consistent F2 patterns for /q/ than pre-tahsin learners, indicating improved control over articulatory gestures critical for posterior consonant production. Overall, the findings show that spectral cues provide a more reliable basis for distinguishing velar and uvular stops than temporal measures in recitational speech, with important implications for tahsin instruction.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze learning obstacles in mastering the rules of damair, particularly damair munfa?ilah and damair mutta?ilah, in Arabic language learning among Grade X.1 students at Madrasah Aliyah Al Inayah, Bandung. The research employs a qualitative approach using a case study design. Data were collected through diagnostic tests and interviews, involving students who had previously studied the topic of damair. Interview participants were selected using maximum variation sampling, a type of purposive sampling that considers the diversity in students' performance levels. The analysis revealed that students' learning obstacles can be classified into three categories based on Brousseau’s theory: (1) ontogenic obstacles, related to students’ limited vocabulary and cognitive readiness; (2) epistemological obstacles, involving misconceptions and conceptual errors in understanding the rules of damair; and (3) didactical obstacles, resulting from unsystematic instructional approaches, particularly in explaining the function of damair within i‘rab structures, which hinder students’ comprehensive understanding of grammatical relations. The findings of this study are expected to serve as a basis for developing more targeted teaching strategies, thereby improving students’ understanding of damair rules and supporting the overall enhancement of their Arabic language proficiency.

Abstract

This study aimed to develop a Reflective Evaluation Model of Character Education in Arabic language learning within Indonesian higher education using a phenomenological approach. Employing a qualitative phenomenological design, the study explored lecturers’ and students’ lived experiences and reflective practices in integrating character education into Arabic instruction. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis and were analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis to identify core themes. The findings indicated that Arabic language learning was experienced as a meaningful space for character development and perceived as intrinsically linked to moral and spiritual values. Reflective practices emerged across three interrelated dimensions—reflection in action, reflection on action, and reflection for action—which mediated the internalization of character values through curriculum and pedagogy and their manifestation in students’ behaviour. In conclusion, the study proposed a theoretically grounded reflective evaluation model that explains how character education is embedded in Arabic language learning and offers conceptual implications for character-based pedagogy and assessment in higher education.

Abstract

Background: Reading comprehension (qirā’ah) is a fundamental skill in learning Arabic as a foreign language. As the complexity of texts and the demands of critical literacy increase, there is a need for a conceptual model that can map the cognitive and epistemic processes involved in understanding Arabic texts. Purpose: This study explores the technical potential of the Reference Epistemological Model (REM) in enhancing students' qirā’ah comprehension. Method: This study employs a qualitative approach with an exploratory case study design. Data were collected through text-based comprehension tests using authentic materials, semi-structured interviews, structured observations, and classroom documentation. Thematic analysis results indicate that the REM is effective in identifying students’ conceptual representations, epistemic activities, and epistemic stances while reading Arabic texts. Results and Discussion: The main findings indicate that the majority of students are still at the stage of literal comprehension and have not yet fully activated inferential and reflective strategies in reading. The REM has potential as both a diagnostic and pedagogical framework for developing qirā’ah assessment, constructing authentic evaluation rubrics, and designing learning strategies based on deep meaning-making. Conclusions and Implications: Contains one to two important sentences. This section provides a conclusion about the results of the research and what these results mean for us today, as well as the implications of the suggested research results for future research on the topic.
