Abstract

This study aims to determine the form, reveal the causes, and understand the impact of PTSD on Said and Safeya on individuals, families, and society in the novel Aid Ila Haifa. Data was collected using reading and note-taking techniques and analyzed descriptively qualitativelythat focusing on the problem of PTSD with a literary psychology approach. The primary data source used is Ghassan Kanafani’s Aid Ila Haifa. This study was using the theory of abnormal psychology by Gerald C. Davison. This study reveals that the form of PTSD included in re-experiencing symptoms are crying, overlapping memories, and a faster heart rate. Included in the avoidance symptoms are denying the traumatic event and keeping their mouth shut over the whereabouts of their child. Meanwhile, hyperarousal symptoms include sudden outbursts of anger, excessive anxiety, and feeling panicked. The cause is a conflict environment and the loss of a son. The impact of PTSD experienced by Said and Safeya on individuals is prolonged sadness, trapped in fear, and loss of zest for life. The impact on the family is a cold attitude. Meanwhile, the impact on society is Said's attitude which forbids his son from joining the front for the defense of the state.

Abstract

This study aims to contrastively examine the use of swear words in social interaction between Indonesian and Arab ethnicities based on sociolinguistic analysis. Swear words are part of everyday communication that can serve as emotional expressions, humour, solidarity, or even insults, depending on the social and cultural context in which they are used. This study reveals how cultural values, social norms, and linguistic factors influence the use and acceptance of swear words in both ethnic groups. This study uses a sociolinguistic approach to understand the social factors that influence swearing, contrastive analysis to compare the structure and meaning of swear words in Indonesian and Arabic, and ethnography of communication to examine the situation of using swear words in daily life. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and text analysis from social media, films, and oral interactions. The results show that there are differences in the patterns of swear word usage between the two ethnicities. In Arabic culture, swear words are mostly related to family honour, social status, and religion, so their use is more limited and can trigger serious conflicts. Meanwhile, in Indonesian culture, swear words have a wider variety and can function as expressions of anger, jokes, or even forms of familiarity, depending on the social relationship between the speaker and the listener. Moreover, the intensity and social acceptability of swearing varies by region and age group. This research provides new insights into how language as a reflection of culture can influence the way individuals express emotions and interact in society. The findings also have implications for the study of cross-cultural communication, language learning, as well as an understanding of the social and psychological impact of swear word use in everyday interactions.

Abstract

Film is a form of visual art that serves not only as a medium of entertainment but also as a reflection and critique of the social realities that underpin it. This study aims to analyse how the film Wadjda (2012) by Haifaa al-Mansour represents individual struggle and oppressive social structures through the lens of genetic structuralism developed by Lucien Goldmann. The primary objective of this research is to reveal the dialectical relationship between the film text and the patriarchal social structure of Saudi Arabian society by examining how collective consciousness is reflected in the narrative and characters of the film. The focus of the study lies in two main aspects: (1) the individual facts depicted in Wadjda and (2) the social facts that underlie the limitations of women's roles in society. Through narrative and social analysis of the film Wadjda, it is found that Wadjda's struggle to own a bicycle becomes a symbol of resistance against cultural and religious norms that restrict women's freedom. The film not only portrays the personal conflict of the character but also represents the tension between traditional values and aspirations for modernity. The findings of this study are expected to contribute to literary studies, particularly in understanding the dialectical relationship between text and social structure in visual literary works.

Abstract

This problem addresses how Mahmoud Darwish's poetry expresses symbolic resistance through ecological, empathic, and spiritual narratives that are grounded in the collective suffering of the Palestinian people. The purpose of this research is to reveal the meaning of colonialism and ecoresistance ideologically and rhetorically as a form of resistance to colonial hegemonic narratives. This research uses contextual qualitative analysis method with triangulation of sources and theories, through documentation and literature study. The results show that natural symbols such as water, trees, and light become markers of spiritual and ecological attachment to the homeland as well as a form of resistance to colonialism. Religious elements strengthen the legitimacy of transcendent and collective resistance. This poem conveys that resistance can take the form of empathy, solidarity, and existential awareness. This article contributes to a new reading of Darwish's poetry by combining ecological, spiritual and postcolonial dimensions. The findings are relevant for Middle Eastern literary studies and cultural conflict studies.

This study employed both historical and contextual methods, which attempt to reconstruct the significant events of the past through analysis, synthesis and verification, in assessing his intellectual background as well as the concise contents of his writings. It discovered his works as significant contributions to Arabo-Islamic literary productions. The study is expected to serve as a useful material for the literary historians and critics in documenting the Arabic literary activities in Nigeria

Abstract

This article examines the themes of love (ḥubb, ʿishq) and longing (ḥanīn, shawq) in the nasīb—the amatory prelude—of the Muʿallaqāt, the celebrated pre-Islamic odes. The objective is to understand how longing in these poems functions not only as an emotional outpouring but also as a structural, cultural, and ethical force. Methodologically, the study combines close textual readings of representative odes (Imruʾ al-Qays, Ṭarafa, Zuhayr, Labīd, and ʿAntarah) with philological analysis, reference to classical commentaries, and insights from modern scholarship in ritual poetics and oral-formulaic theory. More than twenty critical works are reviewed to situate the discussion historically and theoretically. The findings show that longing in the nasīb is not a decorative prelude but a threshold emotion: it transforms personal memory into communal values, giving credibility to later sections of the qaṣīda. Imruʾ al-Qays frames longing as knowledge, Ṭarafa ties it to mortality and generosity, Zuhayr tempers it with wisdom, Labīd elevates it into metaphysics, and ʿAntarah uses it to claim social recognition. In conclusion, love and longing emerge as the emotional engines of the Muʿallaqāt, anchoring the coherence of the qaṣīda and embodying the values of endurance, generosity, and honor.

Abstract

Literature serves as a profound reflection of life, articulating values, emotions, and social criticism through aesthetic language. In the modern era, song lyrics have evolved into a potent medium for conveying ideological messages and challenging the status quo. This study investigates the song "Lil Waṭan" by Mashrou’ Leila, a prominent Lebanese alternative-rock band celebrated for their progressive stance on identity and politics. Unlike traditional patriotic anthems, "Lil Waṭan" offers a sharp counter-discourse, critiquing the manipulation of nationalist sentiment by authoritarian powers to suppress dissent. Utilizing a descriptive qualitative method grounded in Claude Lévi-Strauss’s structuralist theory, this research analyzes the lyrics as a system of signs to uncover the underlying binary oppositions and social myths embedded within the text. The analysis reveals that the song’s structure is built upon deep tensions between the citizenry and the ruling authority, specifically manifesting through the binary oppositions of "love versus fear" and "genuine nationalism versus false nationalism." The findings demonstrate how the text exposes specific "patterns of silencing," including the use of propaganda to fabricate external conspiracies, the "anesthetization" of the public through ideological lethargy, and the deployment of mass entertainment—symbolized by the command to "dance"—as a distraction from political stagnation. By deconstructing these symbols, the study concludes that Mashrou’ Leila redefines patriotism not as blind submission, but as a critical consciousness that rejects the commodification of the "homeland" for social control. Ultimately, this research highlights how contemporary Arab music functions as a sophisticated literary site for political resistance and social critique

Abstract

This study examines the aesthetic and rhetorical dimensions of kināyah (metonymic allusion) in the Burdah by Kaʿb ibn Zuhayr, a celebrated poem recited before the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ as an act of repentance and acceptance of Islam. Unlike previous studies that focused on the poem’s general literary, historical, and symbolic aspects, this research treats kināyah as an independent subject of analysis to uncover its functional role in constructing poetic meaning. Employing a qualitative descriptive-analytical approach, the study analyzes the original text alongside classical commentaries and modern scholarship. The findings reveal that kināyah in the poem manifests predominantly in two forms: kināyah of the attribute (al-ṣifah) and kināyah of the described (al-mawṣūf), while kināyah of ratio (al-nisbah) is absent. The analysis identified 30 instances of kināyah of the attribute, significantly outnumbering the 13 instances of kināyah of the described. The poet utilizes these devices strategically; dedicating twenty verses to the she-camel through kināyah of the described to symbolize psychological endurance , while employing kināyah of the attribute to extol the Prophet and the Emigrants (Muhajirun) with qualities of nobility, bravery, and restraint in victory. The study concludes that kināyah in Kaʿb’s Burdah functions as more than a rhetorical ornament; it serves as a profound artistic tool that bridges pre-Islamic imagery with Islamic values, enriching the poem's emotional depth and confirming its enduring place in Arabic literary heritage
