<![CDATA[This study discusses the use of other language elements in the use of Arabic which are considered to deviate from the rules. The study was conducted because the phenomenon of phonological interference often occurs in grade VII students of MTs Al Asror Semarang due to the influence of the rules of the mother tongue. The purpose of this study was to identify the forms of phonological interference and their causes. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive design, collecting data through listening, note-taking, and recording techniques. Researchers directly observe learning activities to monitor the phonological interference process. The results of the study showed several forms of deviation in Arabic consonant and vowel sounds, such as غ becomes ه, ق becomes ك, خ becomes ح, ش becomes س, ط becomes ت, ث becomes س, ذ becomes د, ع becomes ء, and ض becomes د. The main cause of interference is the difference in sound characteristics between Indonesian and Arabic, while the secondary cause is the lack of practice in using Arabic everyday and the lack of students' knowledge about Arabic sounds. This study provides an overview of phonological interference that needs to be avoided in Arabic language learning. ]]>
