<![CDATA[Although Nahwu learning plays an important role in mastering the Arabic language, this material is often understood as an abstract concept, so students’ understanding tends to remain low and requires learning strategies that are more innovative, engaging, and easier to understand. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the Mind Mapping learning method in improving understanding of Nahwu material among tenth-grade students at Madrasah Aliyah Bahrul Ulum Jombang. This study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design. The research subjects consisted of two classes, namely an experimental class that used the Mind Mapping learning method and a control class that used conventional learning methods. Data were collected through tests of students’ understanding before and after the treatment (pre-test and post-test), and were then analyzed using statistical tests to determine differences in learning outcomes between the two classes. The results showed that the implementation of the Mind Mapping method significantly improved students’ understanding. The results of the t-test analysis showed a significance value of < 0.05, which means that there was a significant difference between students’ understanding before and after learning using the Mind Mapping method. Thus, the Mind Mapping method has proven effective in improving understanding of Nahwu material among tenth-grade students. This study contributes to the development of Arabic language learning methods, particularly in Nahwu learning, so that it becomes more effective, systematic, and easier for students to understand.]]>
