<![CDATA[This study examines the implementation of the Ilqo' Mufrodat Program in developing the Arabic language ability of new students at Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor Jambi. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through observation, semi-structured interviews with language administrators, supervisors, and new students, and documentation, then analyzed using the interactive model of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings show that the program is implemented through vocabulary delivery, meaning explanation, pronunciation practice, repetition, memorization, and communicative application, resulting in gradual improvement in students' receptive and productive vocabulary ability. Supporting factors include a conducive language environment, consistent mentoring, program routine, peer interaction, and contextually relevant material, while inhibiting factors include variation in students' initial ability, limited retention, low confidence, and inconsistent language use outside the program. The study concludes that vocabulary mastery alone does not guarantee speaking proficiency; sustained repetition and communicative practice are essential for developing functional Arabic ability among new students.]]>
