<![CDATA[The Independent Community Service conducted at SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Medan aimed introduce Arabic creatively and relevantly to students. Key activities included teaching basic vocabulary, dhomir (pronouns), the story of the Prophet Muhammad's birth, and Iqra’ lessons for students with limited Qur'an reading skills. The program used interactive approaches such as storytelling and practical examples to enhance students' understanding. Results indicated increased interest and improved skills in Arabic comprehension among students. Support from the school and active student participation were critical factors in the program's success. Although challenges, such as low initial awareness of Arabic's importance, were encountered, creative approaches effectively addressed these issues. This program not only provided immediate positive outcomes but also opened opportunities for more innovative and applicable Arabic learning in the future.
