Arabic grammar is considered one of the most important branches of the Arabic language; however, many students encounter difficulties in understanding grammatical concepts due to their abstract nature and the continued reliance of some teachers on traditional instructional methods. In response to this issue, this study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of using Canva as an instructional medium for teaching Arabic grammar through Matn al-Ajurrumiyyah and to examine its impact on students’ grammatical achievement at Nurul Hakim Islamic Boarding School in West Lombok. This study employed a quantitative approach using a one-group pretest–posttest quasi-experimental design. The population consisted of 115 students, while the sample comprised 30 students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through interviews and tests and were analyzed using the Normalized Gain (N-Gain) test and the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test with the assistance of SPSS software. The findings revealed a substantial improvement in students’ performance, with the mean score increasing from 51.67 on the pretest to 90.93 on the posttest. The N-Gain score reached 0.79, indicating a high level of effectiveness. Furthermore, the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test showed that the Asymp. Sig. (2-tailed) was less than 0.001, indicating a statistically significant difference between the pretest and posttest results. Therefore, the study concludes that the use of Canva is effective for teaching Arabic grammar and positively impacts students’ grammatical achievement at Nurul Hakim Islamic Boarding School, West Lombok. The significance of this study lies in providing a practical model for integrating digital learning media into Arabic grammar instruction, thereby contributing to the development of Arabic language teaching strategies in Islamic educational institutions and supporting the integration of modern technology into the teaching and learning process.
