Abstract

The Qur'an exhibits a distinctive linguistic style characterized by various rhetorical techniques, including kināyah (euphemism), used to convey divine messages with subtlety and refinement. This study explores the use of kināyah in the Qur'an from both stylistic and pragmatic perspectives and examines its implementation in Arabic language teaching. The research aims to provide an overview of kināyah in the Qur'an, identify its linguistic features through stylistic and pragmatic analysis, and highlight its pedagogical relevance. Theoretically, kināyah is seen as an elegant form of expression that stylistically involves word choice and placement, while pragmatically relating to communicative function, implicature, and speech acts. Using a qualitative approach and descriptive methods, the study employs content and discourse analysis. Key findings include: (a) the Qur'an presents kināyah across various themes—such as morality, psychological traits, and eschatology; (b) stylistically, it reveals semantic deviation and rhetorical strength; (c) pragmatically, it reflects implicit meanings and performative force; and (d) the study of kināyah offers valuable insights for enhancing Arabic language instruction.

Abstract

Many students still experience difficulties in communicating in Arabic, as reflected in their low participation in classroom discussions and their hesitation to interact with teacher. The improvement of speaking skills is closely related to the efforts made by teacher in the learning process. This study aims to analyze teacher’s efforts in improving students’ speaking skills and to identify the obstacles faced by teacher in enhancing students’ speaking skills at Roudhotul Jannah Boarding School. This study employed a qualitative research design with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through classroom observations during Arabic language learning activities and interviews with Arabic language teacher and students. The findings reveal that teacher’s efforts to improve students’ speaking skills are carried out through three main aspects: the implementation of Arabic language environment, the use of various teaching methods, and the application of appropriate learning strategies. Teacher also motivate students by consistently using Arabic in daily communication, providing appreciation for students who actively speak Arabic, and encouraging students’ confidence to communicate in Arabic. However, teacher face several obstacles in improving students’ speaking skills, including limited learning media, students’ difficulties in reading Arabic texts, differences in students’ levels of understanding, and students’ shyness in speaking Arabic.

Abstract

This study offers a comprehensive analysis of the role of nature in the poetry of contemporary Jordanian poet Akram Al-Zoubi. It begins with an overview of his biography, then explores the concept of nature poetry, its evolution through various literary periods, and an analysis of selected poems. The research distinguishes between two types of nature: silent (trees, mountains, rivers) and vocal (birds, animals). Al-Zoubi masterfully combines these elements to express personal feelings while addressing social and emotional themes. The study emphasizes the significance of poetic imagery and repetition as stylistic devices that enhance meaning and rhythm. It highlights how Al-Zoubi’s rural environment deeply influences his vocabulary and imagery, positioning nature as a central element rather than mere scenery. Ultimately, the research concludes that Al-Zoubi elevates nature to a humanistic and aesthetic level, shaping his artistic and intellectual vision. His poetry reflects a profound connection to his environment and cultural heritage, imbuing nature with emotional and symbolic depth. This positions him among poets who see nature as a vital source of inspiration and cultural identity, enriching his poetic expression with deep emotional resonance and universal appeal.

Abstract

The Arabic language plays a strategic role in shaping individual religious identity and the social fabric of Muslim communities, particularly within the context of contemporary da'wah practices. This study aims to analyze how Arabic functions both as a linguistic and ideological tool in negotiating personal identity and social relations within da'wah spaces, whether through digital or traditional media. Employing a critical sociolinguistic approach and a descriptive qualitative method, this research explores practices such as code-switching, linguistic register variation, and the adaptation of Arabic to various da'wah contexts, including traditional environments such as Salafi religious institutes and digital da'wah platforms. The findings reveal that Arabic not only serves as a symbol of Islamic religiosity but also performs a semantic function in defining religious authority, social hierarchy, and symbolic capital in contemporary da'wah discourse. In urban settings, Arabic emerges as a symbol of the globalization of Islam and ideological affiliation, whereas in rural contexts, it serves as a means of preserving traditional religious knowledge. The study concludes that context-based Arabic language instruction and the adoption of flexible linguistic strategies are essential to support effective and inclusive da'wah communication in contemporary Muslim societies.

Abstract

This study focuses on problems in learning Speaking’s Ability, including monotonous teaching methods, students’ low speaking achievement, lack of interest and self-confidence, and the need for interactive media to support speaking practice. The population consisted of 353 students, with samples taken from two classes using purposive sampling: class E5 as the control class and class E9 as the experimental class, each consisting of 35 students. This study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental pre-test–post-test design. Data were analyzed using an independent sample t-test, and the research instruments were pre-test and post-test sheets. The results showed an effect size of 2.35, indicating a strong effect. The post-test scores of the experimental class were significantly higher than those of the control class, with a significance value of Sig. (2-tailed) = 0.000, which is lower than α = 0.05. This result led to the rejection of the null hypothesis (Ho) and acceptance of the alternative hypothesis (Ha). These findings indicate that vlog media is effective in improving students’ speaking ability, confidence, and engagement in learning Maharah Kalam. Pedagogically, this study implies that teachers are encouraged to integrate vlog-based learning as an alternative instructional media to create more interactive and student-centered speaking activities. This research also contributes empirical evidence for the use of digital media in Arabic language instruction and recommends further studies to explore the application of vlog media in other language skills and educational contexts.

Abstract

Given the profound significance of the Nigerian national anthem in representing collective identities of the Nigerian populace. This study examined the translation approaches, styles and strategies employed in Oseni’s Arabic translation of the old Nigeria National Anthem (1978-2024). This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of the translation strategies adopted by the author while considering their implication for cross cultural communication. The methodological frame work for this research is the qualitative, auto-telic and content based approach. Grounded in the field of translation studies, the research employs a comparative analysis and methodology to scrutinize linguistic nuances and culture adaptation adopted. This research employed eclectic theoretical approach which includes equivalent theory, Skopos theory, and cultural translation theory. Through a careful examination of Oseni’s translation, this research work revealed that Oseni takes into account the purpose, function, and cultural nuances of the text in the source language in translating to the target language. The author also adopts stylistics devices such as rhythm and imagery to colour his translation in the recipient language in order to aesthetically attract the attention of his target audience. This work also contributes to advancing the understanding of translation theories and practice particularly with the reading of national symbols and identities. In conclusion, this work shows that trans-lingual translation involves the knowledge of extra-linguistics features such as culture and context, cosmological as well as sociological features embedded in the original text and how they are infused in the target language without distorting meaning.

Abstract

The background of this study is the low level of Arabic speaking proficiency among class IX students of MTs Raudlatul Ulum in Labuhan Batu North Sumatra, as a result of the lack of oral practice during education, poor vocabulary proficiency, fear of using Arabic, and low level of self-confidence. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of daily conversation application to improve students' speech skills. This study is based on a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design in one group, and the tool used in this study was a pre- and post-oral test to measure the extent to which students' speech skills improved. The research sample consisted of class IX students at the school. The results of the one-sample t-test and the N-Gain test showed that the application of the daily conversation method contributed to the improvement of the students' speech skills. The t-test revealed that there were statistically significant differences in favor of the post-test (t = 440.075, Sig. = 0.000), which indicates the effectiveness of everyday conversation in improving speech skills. N-Gain's analysis also showed an upgrade rate of 22.78%, which is within the average level, indicating that daily conversation proved a real and moderate improvement in the students' ability to speak.

Abstract

This research aims to explore the process of teaching listening skills using Alef Education, identify difficulties in its use, and understand the opinions of teachers and students regarding this media. The researcher employed a qualitative descriptive method and collected data through observation, interviews, and documentation. Non-participant observation was conducted in the eleventh-grade classes (A1 and A2), along with semi-structured interviews with one teacher and twenty students selected using purposive sampling. The results showed that the teaching process begins with a preparatory stage, which includes three activities: preliminary, main, and closing activities. The teacher’s main difficulty was unstable internet connection, while students faced both technical and non-technical challenges. The teacher considered the media very helpful and worth continuing. Students’ opinions were divided into positive and negative; positive responses highlighted the media’s benefits and motivation, while negative responses involved difficulties with independent learning and technical problems.
