Abstract

Purpose- This study aims to explore the innovative application of portfolio assessment in teaching Mahārah Qirā'ah at SDIT Salsabila Al Muthi'in Bantul, in order to improve students' reading skills and identify the benefits and challenges faced during the implication of this assessment. Design/Methodology/Approach- The research used a qualitative method with a case study design. Data are collected through observation, interviews, and document analysis. This approach allowed for a deep dive into the implementation context and direct experience during the portfolio evaluation process in Arabic language learning. Findings- The innovative implementation of portfolio assessment was able to increase students' motivation, engagement, and encourage the development of critical, creative, and reflective thinking skills. Students can demonstrate progress in Arabic reading through structured activities, such as daily journaling, poster making, and story presentations. Clear rubrics help students to understand the teacher expectations and improve the quality of learning. Research Limitation/Implications- This research was limited to analyzing the innovation of the application of the Maharah Qira’ah portfolio in Arabic language subjects at the elementary school level without any field testing. However, this research serves as a reference in portfolio-based assessment in Arabic language learning.

Abstract

Purpose- This research aims to determine students' responses to the use of picture media and to examine the process of using picture media in learning Arabic, specifically on the topic of mubtada' and khabar, in order to facilitate students’ understanding of the material.  Design/Methodology/Approach- This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation during the research period. The data sources include interviews with several eighth-grade students of Al-Ulum Integrated Islamic Junior High School, Medan. Data analysis was conducted using the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing.  Findings- The findings indicate that students responded actively during the learning process using picture media, contributing to the achievement of learning objectives. Students were able to construct correct sentences in accordance with Arabic grammar, particularly in forming mubtada' and khabar structures, and integrating them with ism isyarah. The instructional steps implemented by the teacher using picture media were as follows: the teacher began the lesson with a standard opening, introduced the material using pictures, displayed the images, asked students to guess them, explained the correct Arabic terms related to the images, had students repeat the phrases, and concluded the lesson.  Research Limitations/Implications- This research is limited to examining students' responses during Arabic learning sessions that incorporate picture media and analyzing the instructional stages used in teaching eighth-grade students at Al-Ulum Integrated Islamic Junior High School, Medan.

Abstract

Purpose-This study aims to explore the use of uslūb muqābalah in Surah Al-Lail by combining the classical badī' approach and the theory of relevance of modern cognitive linguistics. The beauty of muqābalah will be difficult to understand by those who do not understand the meaning of the Qur'an because its charm lies in the depth of the meaning of its verses.  Design/Methodology/Approach- The research uses qualitative discourse analysis based on literature studies and contextual interpretation of muqābalah verses. The focus of the study is the process of pairing opposing meanings forming rhetorical structures and cognitive devices in the delivery of implicit messages. Findings—The results of the study show that the pattern of couples in Surah Al-Lail, such as night and day, giving and file, strengthens aesthetic beauty while optimizing the relevance of meaning. The principle of optimal relevance encourages the inferential drawing of moral conclusions with minimal cognitive effort. Research Limitation/Implications- This research is limited to Surah Al-Lail and does not compare it with other suras. However, this study contributes to developing an interdisciplinary approach between balāghah and pragmatic linguistics, which is useful for innovation in the teaching of tafsir and Arabic.

Abstract

Purpose- The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of the cooperative learning model of the TGT (Teams Games Tournament) type in improving Arabic vocabulary acquisition among eighth-grade students at MTsN 2 Kota Surabaya. Design/Methodology/Approach- This research employed a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental approach using a one-group pretest-posttest design. The study involved 33 eighth-grade students as research participants. Data were collected through objective tests consisting of multiple-choice and essay questions administered before and after the implementation of the TGT model. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a paired sample t-test. Findings- The results revealed a significant increase in students’ average scores from 55.30 in the pretest to 93.00 in the posttest. The t-value of -12.993 with a significance level of 0.000 < 0.05 indicates that the null hypothesis (H₀) is rejected, and the alternative hypothesis (H₁) is accepted. These findings provide strong evidence that the TGT model is effective in enhancing Arabic vocabulary mastery. Research Limitation/Implications- The implications of these findings suggest that the use of the TGT learning model can serve as an innovative strategy in Arabic language instruction at the secondary level. It is hoped that the results of this study will serve as a reference for educators in selecting more interactive, collaborative, and effective teaching approaches that significantly improve students' learning outcomes.

Abstract

Purpose - This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the Index Card Match strategy in enhancing learning activities and nahwu learning outcomes among students of class 2D at Pondok Pesantren Darunnajah Jakarta. Design/Methodology/Approach - This research employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design based on the Kemmis and Taggart model, involving 27 students. The study was conducted in two cycles, each consisting of the stages of planning, action, observation, and reflection. Data were collected through interviews, classroom observations, achievement tests, and documentation. The data were analyzed using descriptive qualitative and quantitative approaches to provide a comprehensive understanding of the learning process and outcomes. Findings - The results reveal a significant improvement in students’ learning activities, which increased from 74.66% in Cycle I to 85.93% in Cycle II. In addition, students’ learning outcomes improved substantially, as the pass rate increased from 77.77% with an average score of 6.96 in Cycle I to 100% with an average score of 8.96 in Cycle II. These results indicate that the Index Card Match strategy effectively promotes student engagement and enhances achievement in nahwu learning. Research Limitations/Implications - This study was limited to one class and focused exclusively on nahwu instruction. However, the findings offer meaningful implications for Arabic language teachers in implementing active learning strategies. Future studies should involve larger samples and comparative designs to strengthen the generalizability of the findings and expand their contribution to Arabic language pedagogy.

Abstract

Purpose - This study examines how two major Arabic-language news outlets, Al Jazeera Arabic and CNN Arabic, construct divergent discursive narratives surrounding the death of American conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Design/Methodology/Approach -Employing Teun A. van Dijk’s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), this qualitative study analyzes eight news texts published between September and October 2025. The analysis covers three textual levels macrostructure, superstructure, and microstructure, while integrating socio-cognitive models and broader sociopolitical contexts. All quotations from Arabic sources are preserved in their original form to maintain analytical accuracy. Findings - The findings reveal a systematic divergence in media framing between the two outlets. Al Jazeera Arabic situates the incident within a broader narrative of political polarization, ideological conflict, and structural instability in the United States, thereby transforming the event into a symbol of wider sociopolitical crisis. In contrast, CNN Arabic frames the same event as a procedural criminal case, relying predominantly on official statements, law enforcement sources, and institutional discourse. These differences are not merely stylistic, but reflect contrasting socio-cognitive models, editorial ideologies, and institutional orientations regarding the role of journalism and political interpretation. Research Limitation/Implications - Although limited to two outlets, the research demonstrates the usefulness of CDA in unveiling ideological layers and interpretive dynamics in Arab media coverage of U.S. political events.

Abstract

Purpose- This study aims to reveal the forms of modality and propositions found in the short story Laila wa Di’bu by Kamil Kailani, using Charles J. Fillmore’s case grammar theory.  Design/Methodology/Approach- This study employs a qualitative descriptive method using content analysis techniques. The primary data are derived from the short story Laila wa Di’bu and are classified based on case roles according to Charles J. Fillmore’s case grammar theory. The analytical process is conducted through the identification of sentence structures, followed by the classification of modality elements and propositions in accordance with the theoretical framework applied.  Findings- The research findings indicate that the short story exhibits a complex sentence structure. Four dominant forms of modality are identified, namely tense modality, negation modality, adverbial modality, and aspect modality. In addition, seven types of propositions are found to function as markers of semantic relationships within sentences, namely agentive, purposive, objective, locative, temporal, comitative, and benefactive cases.  Research Limitations/Implications- This study focuses on a single literary work; therefore, the scope of the semantic case analysis remains limited to the textual context of the short story Laila wa Di’bu. The findings demonstrate the strength of the case grammar approach as an effective analytical framework for explaining the interaction between syntactic structure and narrative meaning. This approach has the potential to be applied to other Arabic literary works to reveal how sentence structures construct moral messages, character dynamics, and the overall meaning of the story.
