Abstract

This study identifies problems in Arabic language learning by examining student enthusiasm, participation and influencing factors. Using qualitative case explanatory field research, data wre collected through observation, interviews, and open-ended questionnaires from fifth grade students of the Islamic Special Program (Takhasus) at Madrasah Ibtida’iyah (MI) Taufiqiyah Semarang. The findings indicated that low enthusiasm and participation are influenced by limited learning motivation, insufficient teacher resources, perceptions of Arabic as a difficult subject, and limited instructional variation. These findings align with Charles Curran's theory, which emphasizes emotional support and a sense of security in learning. The use of interactive strategies such as educational games, group discussion, quizzes, and reward programs, was found to increase student engagement and interest. This study contributes theoretically and practically by enriching the literature on Arabic learning problems related to students’ enthusiasm and participation and providing evidence based insights to support instructional practices in Islamic elementary education.

Abstract

Although visual-based approaches have been applied in Arabic writing instruction, their integration with controlled writing remains underexplored. This study examines the effectiveness of Picture-Based Controlled Writing in improving Arabic writing skills, known as mahārah kitābah, among tenth-grade students at MA Al-Falah Klender. Using a quantitative quasi-experimental design, 22 students were divided into experimental and control classes. The treatment combined sequenced visual stimuli with controlled writing tasks through guided sentence completion to help students organize ideas and use Arabic grammatical structures more accurately. To strengthen the quality and consistency of learning resources, generative AI was employed to create the visual stimuli and selected sentence prompts used in instructional materials as well as the pre-test and post-test. The experimental class showed a moderate learning gain with an N-Gain value of 0.53, suggesting the potential of the Picture-Based Controlled Writing approach in supporting Arabic writing development.

Abstract

Readability research has largely focused on prose-based texts, leaving translated nazam materials in Arabic language pedagogy underexplored. This study investigates the readability of the Indonesian translation module of Tafsīriyah Muqaddimah Jazariyah by Abu Ezra al-Fadhli within the framework of Arabic language pedagogy. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, three discourse samples from the beginning, middle, and end sections of the module were analyzed through the Gunning Fog Index as a heuristic tool to assess linguistic load based on sentence length and lexical density. The results show an average Fog Index score of 6.08, indicating that the module is generally categorized as easy to read, although variations in readability appear across sections. The findings demonstrate that sentence structure plays a more significant role in pedagogical accessibility than lexical complexity alone. This study highlights the need to interpret readability formulas critically when applied to translated nazam texts and contributes to a genre-sensitive understanding of readability in Arabic instructional materials.

Abstract

Writing skills are increasingly marginalized in the rise of digital literacy practices. The rapid growth of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has not yet been accompanied by a well-established cyber-pedagogical framework capable of maintaining students’ independent writing competencies. This study aims to explore the lived experiences of Arabic Language Education students in utilizing AI within maharah al-kitabah learning and to analyze its implications for writing proficiency and academic ethics. A qualitative phenomenological approach was applied through semi-structured interviews with 23 students actively using AI-based applications in Arabic writing activities. The findings reveal that AI is perceived as a cognitive support tool that assists students in generating ideas, improving grammatical structures, enriching vocabulary, and enhancing coherence and writing fluency. However, students also acknowledge the risks of dependency and reduced critical thinking if AI is used without proper pedagogical guidance. These results underline the need for a reflective and ethically grounded integration of AI in maharah al-kitabah instruction to ensure sustainable development of independent writing skills.

Abstract

This study examines the alignment of Arabic reading (maharah qirā’ah) instructional materials with the Indonesian curriculum policy KMA 183 of 2019 and evaluates their linguistic quality and pedagogical relevance in primary education. Using a qualitative content-based approach, the study analyzed an Arabic textbook for Grade 3 through document analysis, classroom observation, and semi-structured interviews. The findings show that the materials are generally aligned with curriculum requirements at the level of early reading competence, particularly in vocabulary recognition and simple sentence structures. However, the linguistic content demonstrates limited variation and a relatively flat progression of difficulty, while reading activities predominantly emphasize decoding and literal comprehension. Observational and interview data confirm that classroom practices largely replicate these patterns, with limited opportunities for contextual meaning-making. The study highlights a gap between curriculum expectations and pedagogical realization, emphasizing the need for instructional materials that better support gradual and meaningful reading development in primary Arabic education.
قيمة الحنين في شعر محمود درويش وكياهي الحاج مصطفى بسري: دراسة في الادب المقارن | The Value of Longing in the Poetry of Mahmoud Darwish and K.H. Mustofa Bisri: A Comparative Literature Study Adnan Halim Husni; Yeni Ratna Yuningsih; Siti Sa’adah; Merry Choirani; Khairul Azmi; R Yudha Alamsyah

Abstract

This article examines the value of longing in the poems “Ilā Ummī” by Mahmud Darwish and “Ibu” by K.H. Mustofa Bisri through a comparative literature approach. The study aims to explain how longing is constructed differently in two cultural contexts, Arab-Palestinian and Indonesian. The method employed is qualitative with a close reading technique, grounded in Raymond Williams’s Cultural Materialism approach, which views literary works as cultural practices. The analysis focuses on longing as a value that shapes human relations with the self, with others, and with the origins of life. The findings show that in Darwish’s poetry, longing functions as a cultural response to experiences of alienation and loss, whereas in Gus Mus’s poetry, longing serves as an ethical reflection on sustained relationships. These findings confirm that longing is not merely a personal emotion, but a cultural value shaped by the social and historical conditions of the poet. This study contributes to comparative literature by positioning longing as an analytical category based on cultural context.

Abstract

This study investigates the use of interactive metadiscourse in Arabic research article abstracts, with particular attention to rhetorical differences between native Arab writers and non-native Indonesian writers. Metadiscourse in abstracts is crucial, as it shapes textual clarity, coherence, and the perceived credibility of scholarly work. Drawing on Hyland’s framework of interactive metadiscourse, this study analyzed forty Arabic research article abstracts, consisting of twenty abstracts written by native Arab authors and twenty by non-native Indonesian authors. The data were coded using a structured codebook and quantitatively analyzed to examine the distribution of interactive metadiscourse categories across both groups. The findings reveal significant rhetorical differences. Non-native writers tend to employ interactive metadiscourse more explicitly to signal research purposes, stages, and logical relations, while native writers rely more heavily on implicit cohesion, reflecting established Arabic rhetorical conventions. These patterns indicate that cultural and academic backgrounds play an important role in shaping abstract writing practices. By situating these findings within the perspective of contrastive rhetoric, this study extends existing metadiscourse research and provides pedagogical implications for improving kitābah instruction for non-native learners of Arabic.
