Abstract

In this work, The Curriculum Development of The Balaghah lesson in several Islamic Universities in Aceh Province, Indonesia, has been studied to review and present the basics and the proposed vision of the integrative approach in teaching The Arabic Language. This work used the qualitative approach and descriptive analytical approaches utilizing the questionnaire and interview for participants. The population in this work was all students from class IV, to VI with a total of 470 students in the academic year of 2020/2021. The participants of the work were 207 students. Based on the results, the availability of basics of the integrative approach in teaching the Arabic language was at the simple level of the content and teaching methods, and the lack of it was in the purposes, facilities, activities, and evaluation as well as the absence of the statistically significant differences at the level of significance (α = 0.05) between student’s responses to the reality of Balaghah's curriculum that were attributed to Islamic Universities, leading to apply to all universities equally. Therefore, this work recommends working on the reformulation of the Balaghah’s curriculum and developing all elements based on the basics of the integrative approach in teaching of the Arabic language. Besides, the requirement for compatibility and harmonization between the elements of the Balaghah’s curriculum as units that complement each other, and developing training programs to provide the teachers in understanding more the integrative approach, its basics and fields, and the importance of observing it in the elements of the Balaghah’s curriculum.

Abstract

This study investigates the application of the discovery learning method to enhance students’ reading skills at State Islamic Senior High School 1, Western Aceh. The research was prompted by classroom observations indicating that Arabic language teachers often rely on conventional approaches, which do not adequately engage students—particularly in the context of reading instruction. As a result, students are limited to passive reception of information through teacher explanations, leading to disinterest, reduced motivation, and poor participation. These challenges highlight the need for a more interactive and student-centered learning strategy. Through a quasi-experimental design involving pre-test and post-test measures, this study demonstrates that the discovery learning method has a significant positive impact on students’ reading proficiency. Statistical analysis using a paired-sample t-test yielded a calculated t-value of 26.73, which far exceeds the critical values at both the 5% (2.09) and 1% (2.86) significance levels. Accordingly, the null hypothesis is rejected in favor of the alternative, confirming the effectiveness of discovery learning in improving reading outcomes.

The objective is to explore the types of language activities that strengthen students' Arabic skills and the assessment forms applied at the school. The methodology used is descriptive qualitative, with data collected through in-depth interviews with teachers, language department management, and students proficient in Arabic, along with documentation of the learning materials used. The results show that Arabic language activities at the school include four activities: vocabulary enhancement, speaking skills in daily life, lectures, and an intensive Arabic program for new students. These activities significantly improve students' ability to speak Arabic, focusing on education that supports speaking practice through memorisation, reading vocabulary, and speaking in Arabic.

Abstract

Listening comprehension is one of the foundational skills in language acquisition, yet its implementation in Arabic language education is often overlooked, especially in many Islamic educational institutions where more focus is placed on grammar and translation. This study aims to analyze the teaching strategies for listening skills (maharah istima’) as conceptualized by Dr. Muhammad Shalih Syanthi in his book Al-Mahārah al-Lughawiyyah. Using a qualitative descriptive method with content analysis, this study examines the pedagogical ideas proposed in the listening chapter of the book. The analysis reveals that Dr. Syanthi emphasizes gradual learning, the use of authentic and contextual audio materials, the development of psychological readiness in learners, active listening exercises, and formative assessment. Moreover, he identifies several key barriers to effective listening—such as distraction, boredom, low stamina, and a critical attitude towards the speaker—and offers practical strategies to overcome them. The findings conclude that M.Syanthi’s framework for teaching maharah istima’ is highly relevant and adaptable for modern Arabic language instruction, especially in enhancing communicative competence and learner-centered pedagogy in both traditional and contemporary settings.

Abstract

Seventh-grade students at MTs Manba'ul Ulum experience boredom and low motivation in learning Arabic due to conventional teaching methods such as lectures, thus requiring the implementation of more creative and student-oriented strategies to improve their understanding and learning motivation. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Mnemonic strategy in enhancing students' mastery of Arabic vocabulary at Mts Manba’ul Ulum. The Mnemonic strategy is a learning method that utilizes association techniques such as images, stories, songs, and word grouping to help students remember vocabulary more easily. The research method used is a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design, employing a one grup pretest and posttest model. the research sample consists of 18 seventh-grade students selected through purposive sampling. The results indicate a significant improvement in student’s Arabic vocabulary mastery after implementing the Mnemonic strategy. The average pretest score was 41.67, while the posttest score increased  to 77.22. Statistical analysis using the paired sample t-test showed a significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant difference before and after applying the Mnemonic strategy. Based on the N-Gain test, students' comprehension improvement falls into the moderate category, with an average score of 0.6288. Thus, the Mnemonic strategy has proven to be effective in helping students memorize Arabic vocabulary more easily and enjoyably.
