Abstract

Learning Bahasa Indonesia (bI) for al-Azhar students is new knowledge. Indonesian language is considered a second language(L2) or third (L3) language after Arabic (Ar). Each of the languages being studied has its own system of rules. These differ significantly from one another on phonological, morphological, and syntactic levels. At the phonological level, for example, their mother tongue (B1), namely Arabic, does not have middle or middle cardinal vowels, does not have nasal sounds, such as (ə/elang), (ɛ/nènèk), (ng/datang) as in Indonesian language. This leads to errors and irregularities in the Indonesian language. Later issues include changes, omissions, and replacement of phonemes that should not be used in Indonesian vocabulary. Knowing which phonemes are a stumbling block and make the learning process difficult can help to prevent these defects from happening again. A number of research data were obtained from the results of reading and writing assignments for first semester students at Al-Azhar University, Faculty of Language and Translation in Cairo (FBT-UAC). Furthermore, the learners' changes, omissions, and replacement of phonemes in Indonesian sentences were classified using predetermined criteria. The obtained data were then analyzed using contrastive theory and error analysis. This theory is applied by comparing the phonemes used by learners with standard Indonesian phonemes. The results revealed that the errors that occurred were the emergence of vowel changes, consonant changes, phoneme omission, and the replacement of diphthongs with single phonemes. This error happens as a result of students' inadequate comprehension and lack of sufficient reading practice.

Abstract

The history of Christianity in Indonesia is inextricably linked to that of Western colonialism. Due to this historical fact, Christianity has been stigmatized in Indonesian mainly by Muslim society as a colonial religion. This stigma later emerged in a number of Indonesian Christian communities. This study will look at the development of Coptic Orthodox Christianity in Indonesia through the lens of a religious purification movement. This study employs a sequential mixed research method that includes interviews, questionnaires, observation, and documentation. This study show  that the conversion of mainstream Christians to Coptic Orthodox Christianity arose from a perception that mainstream Christianity was impure, too westernized, and did not conform to the identity of Indonesians as Easterners. This study ends with a conclusion that the presence of the Coptic Orthodox Christian community in Indonesia was exacerbated by an identity crisis, moral criticism, and rejection of the truth system in mainstream Christianity, as well as a desire to return to authentic Christianity.

Abstract

This research aims to elaborate al-Amidi's critical thinking and express its implication in the discourse of postmodernism literary criticism. This research is a qualitative descriptive research. Data collection uses reading and note-taking techniques. The triangulation used in this research is data triangulation. The data analysis method in this research uses content analysis and hermeneutics methods with elements of interpretation, description, and comparison. The results of this research indicate that al-Amidi's critical method has implication in postmodernist literary discourse on the objectivity aspect of simulation in the narrative of a character based on Jean Baudrillard's assumptions. That is, although postmodernist literature tends to subjectivity to the author, it does not completely forget the basic structure that builds a literary work through a very deconstructive process of meaning. Because in essence, postmodernism has never really been separated from modernism which tends to be objective. If al-Amidi is more inclined to criticism of poetry, then postmodernist literature is more visible in literary works in the form of prose, such as short stories and novels.

Abstract

This study aims to see the correlation between state policies and the increasing number of atheism in Turkey and Saudi Arabia. These two countries were chosen because they represent two countries with a majority Muslim population that apply Islamic law and treat atheism differently. Using LeDrew's trajectory to atheist conversion perspective, this study attempts to explore the correlation between the two. This study shows that both secular country and Islamic kingdoms have the same potential in the phenomenon of conversion to atheism. This is supported by various things that encourage them to be skeptical of religion such as women's issues, violence, discrimination, and so on brought by The New Atheist. The existence of social media assistance also helps atheists to declare themselves as atheists in cyberspace.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to determine the relevance of Taufiq Ismail's poem "Qira'atul-'Alamat," which appears in a collection of poems titled "Turab Fawqa Turab." To reveal the poem's relevance, the meaning of the poem text must first be revealed through heuristic and hermeneutic readings within the framework of semiotic theory, which is a discipline that examines the signs on an object to determine the meaning described in it. These symbols can be found in the text "Qira’tul-‘Alamat" A qualitative descriptive method was chosen to reveal the results of this study. A qualitative descriptive method was chosen to reveal the results of this study. The results of this study revealed that the poetry data has meaning, indicating that humans should always be self-aware, interpret God's signs, and reflect on their actions, attitudes, and words. Man 'amila shaliha falinafsih, wa man sa-a fa'alaiha is thus the foundation of a true life. Humans have previously been shown signs of the presence of an event in order to plan alternative choices that are in compliance with religious teachings and life norms, in expressing words or thinking about, and implemented in everyday life.

In this verse and in practice, conversations between lovers of Allah SWT as speech partners contain several pragmatic phenomena with the principles of conversation between the parties involved. The implementation of these conversational principles has their respective duties and functions based on the situation of the speech act. However, in this communication, is four maxims are not always implemented.

Abstract

As a source of information, the media can have an influence on its readers, both positive and negative influences. The influence gained by the reader actually comes from the writer who consciously or not forms a certain point of view. As is the case with the news of Syrian conflict that has occurred for a long time. Through transitivity analysis, it is hoped that it will be able to provide an overview of how the media views the event. The purpose of this study was to determine the results of transitivity analysis which was able to describe the media’s point of view on a news story. The data sources used in this research are aljazeera.net and ahram.org.  The theory used to analyze the data is the three elements of transitivity from Halliday and Matthiessen, namely process, participant, and circumstantial. The results of this study indicate that there is a difference int the dominance of the use of the process between the two media. Al-Jazeera is more dominant in using material process and Al-Ahram is dominant in mental process. Both media portray participants from the same angle, namely to make Iran dan Rusia as active participants or actors.

Abstract

The development of the Nusantara culinary industry throughout the world shows that Nusantara culinary products are a prospective business opportunity. The presence of Nusantara culinary as a business opportunity in the world requires an understanding of culinary terms in promoting Nusantara culinary terms. One of the areas that makes Nusantara culinary a culinary business opportunity is the Middle East region. The massive use of Arabic in the Middle East requires the equivalent of Nusantara culinary terms in Arabic as well. This requires a translation process between Indonesian and Arabic. This study describes the strategy of translating Indonesian-Arabic Nusantara culinary terms. Data were collected from various corpus of data in the form of 3 Indonesian-Arabic dictionaries and 1 internet page source. The findings of the translation strategy are in the form of 204 data on the translation of three types of Indonesian-Arabic Nusantara culinary terms. The findings of the syntactic strategy there are 4 types of syntactic translation strategies applied, namely literal translation of 17 (8.5%) data, 17 (8.5%), borrowing of 17 (8.5%), unit shifting 160 (80%), and changing the phrase structure 6 (3%) data. There is only one type of semantic strategy application, namely hyponyms as much as 82 (40%) data. The implementation of the pragmatic strategy found two strategies, namely cultural filtering of 11 (5.4%) data and changing of information as much as 8 (3.9%) data. The results of the assessment of the quality of the translation of the Nusantara culinary term obtained a level of accuracy that is less accurate, acceptability is less acceptable, and legibility is legible.
