Abstract

Arabic schools seek to improve the teaching of the Arabic language, through the use of activities that motivate the student to learn and use the Arabic language. Student who want to learn to speak Arabic require a lot of practice through activities that require speaking. This study aims to highlight the experience of Arabic schools in Brunei in using non-class activities. This study describes and analyses the benefits of non-class activities for teaching Arabic at the Arabic schools in Brunei. Arabic schools have taken steps to develop the teaching of the Arabic language, and have increased the activities that push students to practice and use the Arabic language. They have managed and prepared Arabic plays and competitions at the classroom level, and the winning teams represents each school and compete against other Arabic schools in Brunei. Additionally, each school conducts public speaking competitions, group speeches, singing competitions, Arabic calligraphy, and other activities. Arabic schools also organize many events to introduce Arabic culture. Arabic schools push students to use the Arabic language at all events and occasions. Arabic schools organize Arabic language festivals and exhibitions, Arabic language week and open day. This study recommends the necessity of paying attention to classroom and non-classroom activities in teaching Arabic, and urges students to use the Arabic language in research, listening, reading, writing, and speaking the Arabic language inside and outside the classroom.

Abstract

The ability to understand the heritage book is a fundamental thing a student must own in Islamic boarding schools. In their ability to read the heritage book, the students often find it difficult to read it, let alone understand it. But in understanding the heritage book, a student must have skills in understanding the grammatical Arabic (nahwu and sharaf) to read the heritage book. This study aims to determine the learning strategy for reading the heritage at the Islamic boarding school Al-Ittihad Cianjur. This study uses a phenomenological approach. This research belongs to qualitative research. Data collection is done by conducting observations, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis was carried out by reducing, presenting, and concluding data. The results showed: 1) Implementation of the learning strategy of the salaf and khalaf Islamic boarding schools at the Al-Ittihad Cianjur Islamic boarding school using the sorogan, bandongan, memorizing methods, giving mufradāt yaumiyyah (daily vocabulary), muhādasah yaumiyyah (daily conversation), heritage reading competition. 2) The reading ability of class XII students at the Al-Ittihad Cianjur Islamic boarding school is considered good because it is supported by learning Arabic in and outside the classroom. 3) Factors supporting the learning of the heritage book, namely the existence of teachers skilled in mastering the learning method, while the inhibiting factor for learning the heritage book is the level of student discipline is still low.

Abstract

Madrasah Diniyah An Nuur Batu faces challenges in teaching Arabic grammar (nahwu i'rob jurumiyah) due to traditional methods. This research investigates the effectiveness of the grammatical translation method in addressing these challenges. The study employed a qualitative case study approach, gathering data through interviews with educators, the headmaster, and students, as well as observations and document analysis. The findings reveal that the grammatical translation method significantly enhances i'rob jurumiyah learning at the madrasah. The method involves using the students' native language as the medium of instruction, with the teacher actively presenting material and students passively receiving it. This approach focuses on teaching grammatical rules, leading to improved understanding and application of nahwu concepts. The supporting factors for the implementation of the grammatical translation method in learning i'rob jurumiyah at Madrasah Diniyah An Nuur Batu are adequate facilities, a supportive Arabic language learning environment and the background of students, the creativity of educators in teaching, the existence of nadzom by Madrasah Diniyah An Nuur Batu, and the existence of additional exciting methods

Abstract

The development of technology in the field of education saw several advancements. One of these advancements was marked by the massive use of artificial intelligence technology, including in the evaluation of Arabic language learning. In response to this development, technological advancements had to be balanced with human competencies so that learning did not rely entirely on technology but was integrated with human thinking abilities. This research aimed to design an evaluation of Arabic reading skills based on the integration of Qalam AI and language teacher competencies. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach, which was then practiced in learning through field experiments involving 150 respondents. Data collection methods include interviews, documentation, literature studies, and reading skill tests. The analysis used was descriptive analysis, as it focused solely on the evaluation design based on the integration of Qalam AI and language teacher competencies. Access to Qalam AI technology could be found at the website: https://qalam.ai/.  The results of the study indicated that the design of the evaluation for Arabic reading skills based on the integration of Qalam AI and language competencies could be simulated in six stages: 1) Arabic language learning based on Qalam AI, 2) Arabic reading skill tests, 3) Utilization of Qalam AI, 4) Application of language teacher competencies, 5) Diagnosis and placement, 6) Evaluation.

Abstract

Linguistic conjugation is an essential part of the science of morphology, it's crucial for understanding Arabic texts. However, students often face difficulties in memorizing linguistic conjugations. Therefore, this study aims to determine the effect of talking stick game on students' ability to remember linguistic conjugation. This research used quantitative approach with quasi experimental method. This study was conducted at MAN 3 Banda Aceh with the subjects amounted to 50 students, consisting of 25 IS class students as the experimental class and 25 IPA class students as the control class. The data were collected through validated tests and analyzed using normality, homogeneity, and t-test analyses. The results showed a significant improvement in the post-test scores of the experimental group (M = 92, SD = 7.77) compared to the control group (M = 64, SD = 14.64). The t-test analysis revealed a significant effect (Sig. 2-tailed = 0.000 0.05). Thus, the implication of this study is that talking stick game as an interactive method can be applied in learning Arabic language especially on linguistic conjugation material or other materials that require strong memory and deep understanding of the material.

Abstract

This research examines the application of philosophy of language in early childhood Arabic language acquisition, focusing on pragmatics, semantics, and hermeneutics. Using a qualitative approach with descriptive methods, the research involved observations and interviews in three Raudhatul Athfal in Riau Islands. The results showed that the pragmatic approach that integrates real-life contexts, such as role-playing, is effective in improving communication skills. The semantic approach, through the introduction of real object-based vocabulary, strengthens children's understanding of meaning structures. Meanwhile, hermeneutics helps children internalise cultural and religious values through interactive stories and daily prayers. Although challenges such as lack of social environmental support and semantic complexity were encountered, great opportunities emerged through educational technology innovation and community collaboration. This research makes a theoretical contribution in the integration of philosophy of language with Arabic language teaching, as well as offering practical guidance for designing more effective and meaningful teaching methods.

Abstract

This article discusses the life and works of Umru’ al-Qais, a famous Arabic poet from the sixth century. As the son of King Hajar al-Kindi, Umru’ al-Qais was known for his adventurous and extravagant lifestyle, which eventually led to him being banished by his father. After the expulsion, he spent time in the desert until he heard news of his father's death and vowed revenge. His story involves traveling to various regions, including seeking help from the Roman Emperor, who eventually sends a poisoned cloak that causes his death. Umru’ al-Qais was remembered through his works, especially al-Mu'allaqat, which is one of the most famous poems in pre-Islamic Arabic literature. This article also describes his family tree, his influence in Arabic literature, and the style and main themes in his poetry. Umru’ al-Qais recognized as a pioneer in the use of figures of speech and other literary techniques, as well as love poems that describe female beauty and his personal experiences. His poems remain an important reference in the study of Arabic literature

Abstract

The lack of student motivation in learning Arabic is something that needs to be found a solution. This is due to the need to create passionate and enjoyable learning. This research aims to 1). describe the nature of ARCS-based learning design in Arabic subjects, 2). Describe the syntax of the ARCS model in Arabic language learning. This research uses a qualitative approach to the type of library research with analytical descriptive methods. The findings of this research are 1) Arabic language learning design John Keller's ARCS model (Attention, Relevance, Confidence, and Satisfaction) is a motivation-based learning model based on a humanistic approach and behavioristic learning theory. The ARCS model is a model that does not stand alone but is implemented in integrated learning with other methods. 2) The learning syntax in the Attention model is how a teacher attempts to attract students' attention and maintain that attention and create curiosity. The learning syntax in the Relevance model is how a teacher attempts to adapt Arabic lesson material to students' daily lives. The learning syntax in the Confidence model is how a teacher attempts to create students' self-confidence in learning Arabic. Meanwhile, the learning syntax in the Saticfaction model is how the teacher attempts to provide rewards and reinforcement to create a sense of satisfaction for students in learning Arabic.

Abstract

This study examined a gap in the company's manual book for Indonesian bus drivers assigned to work in Saudi Arabia. The manual book used formal Arabic vocabulary about bus parts, occupational safety, and traffic signs, while foreign workers from India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh frequently communicated in simplified Arabic. This discrepancy highlights the need to align training courses with the practical demands of daily interaction. The study employed a qualitative descriptive content analysis approach. The findings confirm Canagarajah's work on the importance of sociolinguistic competence in transnational work environments, Duggan's focus on the necessity of sociolinguistic awareness for migrants, and Kött and Vogl's research on the role native speakers play in acquiring hybrid Arabic. It supports Ubalde et al.'s findings on the impact of interethnic contact on language learning and aligns with Al-Rojaie's analysis of dialectal variations in Saudi Arabia. Furthermore, it agrees with Al-Mutayri and As-Susuwah's studies on pidgin Arabic. The study concludes the importance of equipping bus drivers with language variation in real-world communication and recommends incorporating sociolinguistic content into training courses to address multicultural work environment challenges.
