Abstract

Istima' is a very important activity in our lives, and a means for the first time in human life to be able to reach the stage of good community interaction. This research is a library research, which examines various books and the results of previous research that discuss the same theme to obtain a theoretical basis for the problem under study. The objective of Istima' learning is to enrich children's vocabulary so that it helps students when learning to read and write. The istima lesson' is considered by most teachers to not need to be taught because it is already implicit in the other three components of language skills. The urgency of learning istima' skills before other language skills can be observed from the process of language development in children before they can read and write, they can speak first, what they talk about, of course not deviate from what they listen to everyday.

Abstract

This study reassessed these competing interpretations using a qualitative, comparative, and diachronic research design that integrated historical-semantic analysis with Critical Discourse Analysis. The corpus comprised six classical and premodern Arabic sources and five modern academic or public-discourse sources selected using contrastive purposive sampling. Classical passages were analyzed for semantic reference, communicative function, ethnolinguistic reference, and evaluative meaning, whereas modern texts were coded for recontextualization, essentialization, hierarchy, moralization, and reclamation. The findings showed that the root ʿ-j-m was associated with opacity and limited linguistic clarity, whereas ʿAjam also functioned as an ethnolinguistic designation for non-Arabs and, in some contexts, Persians. The presence of pejoration and ethnolinguistic categorization did not, by themselves, establish racialization. Rather, racialization emerged when difference was essentialized, hierarchized, and ideologically framed within specific historical and political contexts. This distinction offers a more nuanced framework for examining the relationship between linguistic categorization, ethnolinguistic othering, and racialization in Arabic discourse.
