Abstract

This study examines the design of Arabic instructional materials intended to improve university students’ reading skills, especially in reading unvowelled Arabic texts, through the use of Qutrub’s linguistic triangles. The study addresses three main questions: how Qutrub’s linguistic triangles can support the development of Arabic reading skills, what form of instructional materials can be designed on the basis of these triangles, and how such materials may be pedagogically implemented in higher education. This research employed a qualitative library research design with a descriptive-analytic approach. Data were collected from Qutrub’s al-Muthallathat, its commentaries, classical and modern lexicons, and relevant studies on Arabic reading pedagogy and instructional-material development. Data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, involving data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings show that linguistic triangles provide not only lexical enrichment but also phonological, morphological, and semantic discrimination that can help learners distinguish visually similar lexical items in unvowelled texts. Based on the analysis, the study proposes instructional materials organized into vocabulary presentation, contextualized dialogues, guided reading texts, sentence-pattern exercises, and comprehension tasks. The study argues that Qutrub’s linguistic triangles may serve as a linguistically grounded resource for developing Arabic reading materials for non-native learners at the university level. The novelty of this study lies in integrating the classical Arabic lexical heritage of al-muthallathat into the contemporary design of Arabic reading instructional materials.

Abstract

Arabic literature has developed since the Jahiliyah period and continued until the emergence of Islam. Then, Islamic literature was born which played an important role in conveying Islamic values ​​and teachings. This study discusses one of the concepts in Islamic literature initiated by Najib al-Kailani in his book Madkhal Ila al-Adab al-Islami, namely al-Iltizam (Commitment). The purpose of this study is to reveal how Najib al-Kailani, a figure who initiated the concept of al-Iltizam in Islamic literature, applies his own concept in building stories, characters, and messages conveyed in his work in the form of a short story entitled “al-Kabus”. This study is a library research with a qualitative descriptive type, which focuses on the analysis of narratives in the literary work. The results of this study indicate that the concept of Al-Iltizam or commitment in Islamic literature has a very important role in forming literary works that are not only aesthetic but also meaningful, and contain Islamic teachings and values ​​in them. Thus, al iltizam in Islamic literature can be a powerful means to spread moral and spiritual messages, as well as to shape the character of a better society.

Abstract

In the increasingly digitalized era of higher education, digital academic communication spaces have become a primary arena for the formation of academic identity and legitimacy. Although studies on EFL communicative competence and digital pragmatics continue to grow, few studies have explored micro-longitudinally how lexico-pragmatic development contributes to the formation of academic relational positioning in digitally mediated academic interactions. This study aims to investigate the trajectory of this development in the context of EFL higher education. The study employed an ethnographically informed longitudinal qualitative inquiry design involving 12 students and 2 lecturers over one semester. Data in the form of authentic archives of digital interactions (WhatsApp groups and LMS) were collected through systematic archiving and analyzed using a theoretically informed qualitative analysis grounded in positioning theory and relational work. The results show a shift from formulaic minimalism to collocational alignment, an expansion of the lexico-pragmatic repertoire, and a more contextual and strategic relational orchestration stage. These findings confirm that the development of academic competence is not solely linguistic, but also relational and institutional. This study concludes that digitally mediated interaction is a crucial space for the process of academic discourse socialization in digitalized higher education.

Abstract

This study examines the concept of the “Active Intellect” (al-‘aql al-fa‘āl) in the philosophies of Aristotle and Avicenna through a comparative analytical approach based on their primary works, De Anima and The Book of Healing. The research is motivated by the importance of understanding the development of the concept of intellect in the history of philosophy and its role in linking knowledge, the soul, and reality. In addition, the study highlights the relevance of philosophical texts in Arabic language education, particularly in fostering critical thinking and conceptual understanding. The objective is to identify similarities and differences between the two philosophers and to trace the transformation of the concept from the Greek to the Islamic context. The method employed is a descriptive-analytical comparative approach based on close textual reading. The findings show that both philosophers agree on the cognitive function of the Active Intellect as the actualizer of intellectual potential, yet differ in its ontological and metaphysical foundations. Aristotle’s account remains ambiguous, whereas Avicenna provides a more systematic cosmological framework. This study concludes that the concept of the Active Intellect is not only philosophically significant but also pedagogically relevant for Arabic language teaching through philosophical texts.

Abstract

Low student motivation remains one of the most persistent barriers to successful foreign language acquisition, particularly in Arabic language learning at madrasahs, where variations in teaching strategies often fail to fully engage learners. This study aims to analyze students' motivation in Arabic language learning and its role in promoting academic achievement at State Madrasah Aliyah 1 Samarinda and State Madrasah Aliyah 2 Samarinda. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach with a multi-case study design. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving Arabic language teachers of grades X–XII and selected high-achieving students. Data were analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldana interactive model, including data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that both madrasahs implement the Merdeka Curriculum with distinct instructional characteristics: MAN 1 emphasizes game-based, engaging learning, while MAN 2 focuses on academically challenging instruction. Students' motivation is shaped by intrinsic and extrinsic factors, which in turn influence their competencies in vocabulary, speaking, grammar, and reading. Strengthening both motivation and instructional strategies is essential to improve learning outcomes.

Abstract

Mudzakarah is a traditional Islamic learning method still used today. It helps students understand what they learned in class. Although well-known, there are few studies on its use in learning Arabic at Islamic schools. This study looks at how mudzakarah is used and its impact on fifth-grade girls learning Arabic at Pondok Pesantren Dar Al-Nahda Thawalib Bangkinang. The study uses a qualitative approach and descriptive method. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and document analysis. The subjects were fifth-grade girls in the diniyah education program. The results show that mudzakarah involves structured group discussions, Q&A sessions, and repeating learned material. This method helps reinforce learning and encourages active participation. The study found that mudzakarah improves understanding of Arabic grammar rules, especially in reading and understanding texts. It also boosts confidence, motivation, and cooperation among students. Factors that help mudzakarah work well include a supportive school environment and motivated students. Challenges include differences in student abilities and limited time. Overall, mudzakarah plays a key role in improving understanding of Arabic grammar and supports effective language learning in Islamic schools.

Abstract

Anjangsana Ihya’ in Situbondo constitutes a socio-cultural practice that sustains the continuity of community-based turāth learning. This topic is important because studies of kitab kuning are often confined to institutional settings, whereas the mechanisms through which non-formal adult practices integrate ritual, social relations, and community governance remain underexplored. This study employs a qualitative ethnographic approach, drawing on participant observation, in-depth ethnographic interviews with key actors (shaikhs, qāri’ [readers], mustami’ [active listeners], technical organizers, hosts, and students), and documentation (schedules, field notes, and WhatsApp group communications). Data analysis follows Spradley’s stages (domain, taxonomic, componential, and cultural theme analyses). The findings indicate that Anjangsana Ihya’ operates as a rotating community event (homes, mosques, and public venues) with a stable format: ritual opening (tawassul and al-Fātiḥah), rotating readings, collective meaning negotiation, ritual closing (tahlīl and supplication), and a social phase of hospitality. Continuity is maintained through a structured role ecology, ritual framing, layered hospitality, and WhatsApp-based hybrid governance that coordinates schedules and extends discussion beyond meetings. The practice contributes to social capital (trust, shared norms, and reciprocity) and cultural reproduction through turāth literacy, cross-edition textual verification, and the reinforcement of values such as adab, khidmah, and intergenerational togetherness. Overall, the findings position Anjangsana Ihya’ as “cultural infrastructure” that keeps turāth learning alive while strengthening community cohesion.
