Abstract

Low achievement in Arabic language learning among students remains a critical issue in Indonesia. This study seeks to refine the paradigm of Arabic language education by aligning it with the learning objectives and socio-cultural tendencies of society and students. Despite various innovations in curriculum and pedagogy, outcomes remain suboptimal. This research proposes a new paradigm that integrates Arabic language education with the cultivation of Islamic religious character (religi-linguistic), positioning Islamic values as central while using Arabic as a strategic tool to achieve these objectives. Employing a qualitative approach grounded in grounded theory, the study develops this paradigm within Ma’had Al-Jāmi’ah (Islamic boarding schools) at State Islamic Higher Education Institutions (PTKIN) in Indonesia. The findings highlight the interdisciplinary framework of religi-linguistics, which includes: (1) Islam as the foundational discipline and goal; (2) religious character as the primary indicator; (3) Arabic as the medium; (4) structured interdisciplinary steps in Arabic language learning; and (5) modeling and environmental design as essential strategies.This study urges scholars and policymakers to reevaluate traditional paradigms and adopt this integrated approach, offering a more cohesive and purpose-driven model for Arabic education that addresses both linguistic proficiency and religious character development.

Abstract

The success of Arabic language education in Islamic higher education largely depends on a deep understanding of the challenges faced by learners. This study critically explores the perceptions of fourth-semester students in the Arabic Language Education program at the State Islamic Institute (IAIN) of Kerinci regarding the difficulties of learning Arabic as a foreign language, using a constructivist approach. Employing a phenomenological method, data were collected through semi-structured interviews and focused group discussions. The findings reveal that students face not only linguistic challenges such as the complexity of Arabic grammar (nahwu) and phonology but also significant affective barriers: learning trauma from past experiences, language anxiety, and a sense of meaninglessness resulting from rote-oriented instruction. A misalignment between instructional approaches and learners’ experiential needs exacerbates these issues. Surprisingly, some students demonstrated resilience and learning creativity through informal study communities and self-directed digital learning. The constructivist perspective highlights how students reconstruct meaning within institutional limitations. This study underscores the urgent need for curriculum reform, teacher training grounded in psychopedagogical awareness, and the empowerment of learner agency. Future research should explore the role of technology and locally contextualized instructional design in promoting more transformative and engaging Arabic language learning experiences.

Abstract

This study explores the motivations of high school alumni in choosing the Arabic Language Education program at IAIN Kerinci, as well as the factors influencing their decision to select this major. A qualitative method with a descriptive analysis approach was employed. The findings reveal that students from non-boarding school backgrounds select the Arabic Language major for three main reasons: (a) religious motives, where they study Arabic to understand and teach Islamic teachings (fahm al-maqru); (b) academic motives, where they aim to comprehend Arabic sciences and skills (istima’, kalam, qira’ah, and kitabah); and (c) professional, practical, and pragmatic motives, such as becoming a teacher and communicating orally (muhadatsah) in Arabic. This research presents a novelty by refuting Herdah (2020) findings, showing that not all Arabic learners study the language for ideological and economic reasons. These insights offer a new perspective on the diverse motivations behind studying Arabic, providing a comprehensive understanding of their motivations.

Abstract

This study examines Kalam learning through the Muhadatsah method at Ma'had Al-Jamiah, identifying supporting and inhibiting factors. A phenomenological approach with an interpretive paradigm and descriptive qualitative methods was used. Findings include: 1) The method aims to accustom students to Arabic communication. 2) Muhadatsah is significant due to its relaxed, practical nature, conversation habituation, repetitive practice, engaging elements, memorization facilitation, and fluency development. 3) Progress is assessed by students' fluency and ease in pronunciation. 4) Implementation involves vocabulary assignments, partner selection, topic determination, and location choice for Muhadatsah. 5) Evaluation is through direct supervision by the instructor. 6) The teaching approach is relaxed and flexible. 7) No media are used as learning resources. 8) Challenges include limited time, an unsupportive language environment, students' lack of basic Arabic knowledge, and shyness. 9) Success is seen in improved Kalam skills, accurate pronunciation, and increased vocabulary.

Abstract

This study investigates the instructional strategies employed by Arabic language educators in teaching reading skills (mahārah al-qirā’ah) to students at Ma'had IAIN Kerinci, who possess diverse educational backgrounds. Specifically, it explores how teachers adapt their pedagogy to students' prior Arabic grammar knowledge, particularly among those with pesantren (Islamic boarding school) experience. Grounded in constructivist learning Theory, this qualitative research adopts a phenomenological approach involving classroom observations and in-depth interviews with six instructors and twelve students over four months. Data were thematically analyzed to capture recurring pedagogical patterns and learner experiences. The findings reveal that the constructivist approach is more effective in advanced-level classes, as students with prior grammatical knowledge actively engage in meaning construction. A key strategy identified is the use of i'rāb (grammatical analysis), which enhances students' ability to decode and comprehend Arabic texts. The study underscores the pedagogical value of i'rāb within a constructivist framework and highlights the necessity of aligning instructional strategies with students' linguistic backgrounds. These insights contribute to the development of context-sensitive Arabic reading instruction in heterogeneous academic settings

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the correlation between Qur’anic reading proficiency and Arabic text reading skills (mahārah qirā’ah) among learners of Arabic as a second language. The underlying assumption of this research is based on the premise that fluency in reading the Qur’an which entails phonological, articulatory, and Arabic text processing skills potentially contributes to the general ability to read Arabic texts. However, Qur’anic reading proficiency does not necessarily align with the ability to comprehend classical Arabic texts such as kitab kuning, which possess distinct syntactic structures and contextual meanings. This study employs a quantitative approach using Pearson correlation analysis to obtain objective and statistically analyzable results. Data were collected through two types of tests: a Qur’anic reading test and an Arabic text comprehension test. The analysis yielded a significance value of 0.052, which exceeds the conventional threshold of 0.05 (0.052 > 0.05). In other words, there is no statistically significant relationship between Qur’anic reading proficiency (independent variable, X) and Arabic reading skills (mahārah qirā’ah, dependent variable, Y). This finding suggests that although both skills utilize the same script and language, they develop within different contexts one being ritualistic and phonological in nature, and the other communicative and syntactic.

Abstract

The objective of this research is to understand the factors that influence vocabulary acquisition, thereby enhancing students' linguistic skills within a language environment. The approach used in this study is phenomenology, employing an interpretive paradigm. The method utilized in this research is descriptive qualitative. The results of the study reveal that learning Arabic within a language environment plays a crucial role in vocabulary acquisition and constitutes a part of the learning strategy. In the absence of a language environment in Arabic learning, the following impacts on vocabulary acquisition are observed: 1) students are likely to forget the vocabulary they have memorized easily, and 2) their vocabulary repertoire will not expand without memorization. Thus, the presence of a language environment can eliminate the need for vocabulary memorization. A conducive language environment plays a crucial role in enhancing students' Arabic language proficiency, and thus should be integrated into language learning strategies. Alternative strategies, such as elaboration and the creation of a language-rich environment, are effective in optimizing vocabulary acquisition, particularly in less supportive settings.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the direction and implementation of Arabic language instruction as a foreign language within the environment of Ma’had IAIN Kerinci. Employing a qualitative case study approach, the research explores various aspects of language learning, including goal formulation, teaching methods, student motivation, and curriculum relevance. The findings reveal that the direction of Arabic instruction at Ma’had IAIN Kerinci is significantly influenced by the alignment between learning objectives, curriculum design, methodological approaches, and students’ internal factors. The primary discovery highlights that the instructional direction, which has not been explicitly formulated, contributes to a lack of cohesion between curriculum content, teaching methods, and communicative competence goals. The study underscores the importance of a well-defined instructional direction as a central element that influences the effectiveness of communicative-based pedagogical approaches. Furthermore, it suggests that curriculum reform emphasizing functional and applied language skills is essential. Innovative teaching methods also play a vital role in enhancing students’ active participation and emotional engagement. Additionally, this study identifies two major motivational poles among students—academic and religious—which shape their learning orientation and imply the necessity for a dual-responsive instructional design. These findings indicate that instructional direction is not merely a pedagogical concept but a strategic foundation that determines the quality and relevance of Arabic language education as a foreign language.
