Abstract

This study identifies the contextual meanings of some selected Qur'ānic near-synonyms and the semantic differences that exist between them, as explained in the Holy Qur'ān. It also elucidates how the semantic differences between the selected Qur'ānic pairs are reflected in the English translations. Three pairs of Qur’anic near-synonyms are chosen for this study. The collected data are qualitatively analyzed based on the RC-S approach by Murphy. The findings show that some semantic differences exist between the selected pairs of Qur'ānic near-synonyms, and some semantic differences are not reflected in the English translations. An example of the investigated Qur’anic near-synonyms is the pair of جوع  and مسغبة (hunger). The findings reveal that مسغبة  (famine) denotes extreme and severe hunger of a large number of people. It is also associated with weakness, fatigue, exhaustion, and thirst. However, its near-synonymجوع  (hunger) is more general and does not have the same semantic features asمسغبة  (famine). It is shown that translating both words by Arberry as ‘hunger’ is inappropriate since the semantic differences between them are not reflected in the English translation. This study presents recommendations that could be useful for translators, readers, and interested researchers.

Abstract

This study aimed to identify the sources of semiosis in the ngalogat symbols at the Miftahul Huda Islamic Boarding School in Tasikmalaya and to explain how these sources shaped students' knowledge in reading classical Islamic texts. This study applied Charles Sanders Peirce's semiotics theory, focusing on six symbols: ari, eta, éta tetep, saha, naon, and ka. A qualitative descriptive method was employed. Data were collected through interviews with teachers and alumni, classroom observations, and questionnaires given to 30 Ma'had 'Aly students. The results showed three sources of semiosis: local conventions and arbitrariness, modification of form, and simplification of the Pegon script. The semiosis process took place hierarchically through grammatical identification (52%), individual interpretation (31%), understanding of the logatan system (14%), and structural function (3%). These findings indicated that ngalogat symbols functioned not only as a word-by-word translation tool but as a cognitive framework that shaped santri's grammatical understanding of Arabic.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the gap between theoretical constructs and empirical practices in Arabic language proficiency tests in Indonesian higher education, as well as to identify the direction of standardization that is able to bridge the orientation of Arabic language proficiency in Higher Education in two categories, namely Arabic Language Education and Arabic Literature. This research uses a qualitative approach with an a priori-oriented case study method, conducted at two public general universities in Indonesia, one specializing in Arabic Language Education and the other in Arabic Literature. Data were collected through document analysis (covering two curricula, test instruments, syllabi, and learning outcomes) and semi-structured interviews with two lecturers who also serve as test developers. The analysis was conducted using theory-driven thematic analysis to examine the constructs of proficiency, skill representation, and standardization practices. The findings indicate significant gaps in three main aspects: (1) constructs that are still oriented towards language knowledge rather than language use, (2) an imbalance in skill representation with a dominance of qira’ah and a lack of productive skills, and (3) the absence of calibrated standards across institutions. Furthermore, there is a dichotomy between the communicative (Arabic Language Education) and analytical (Arabic Literature) approaches that have not been integrated into the test design. This research offers a conceptual contribution by positioning Arabic language proficiency as an integrative competency that combines communicative and analytical dimensions, while simultaneously bridging two previously separate disciplines. This study provides a basis for the development of more representative, contextual, and standardized proficiency tests at the higher education level.
