Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi tantangan serta menggali solusi yang dilakukan oleh guru Bahasa Arab dalam penerapan Kriteria Ketercapaian Tujuan Pembelajaran (KKTP) pada Kurikulum Merdeka di MAN 2 Kabupaten Gorontalo. Pendekatan yang digunakan adalah kualitatif dengan jenis studi kasus. Data diperoleh melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi kelas, dan studi dokumentasi, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan model interaktif Miles dan Huberman. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa guru menghadapi beberapa tantangan utama, seperti minimnya pemahaman terhadap konsep KKTP, kesulitan dalam menyusun asesmen autentik, keterbatasan pelatihan, serta beban administrasi yang tinggi. Meski demikian, guru menunjukkan berbagai upaya adaptif melalui kolaborasi MGMP, pengembangan perangkat ajar mandiri, pemanfaatan media digital, dan implementasi penilaian berbasis proyek. Kajian ini menekankan pentingnya dukungan sistemik dan pelatihan berkelanjutan dalam mendorong implementasi Kurikulum Merdeka secara efektif. Temuan ini juga memberikan kontribusi praktis bagi kebijakan pengembangan dan pelatihan guru yang lebih kontekstual. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan adanya penyusunan model pelatihan terpadu yang mengarah langsung antara perencanaan KKTP dan praktik pembelajaran Bahasa Arab berbasis fase.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze language anxiety among students in Arabic learning under the Merdeka Curriculum and to apply a deep learning approach to detect and predict the factors causing such anxiety. The research method employed is descriptive qualitative, with data collected through in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and documentation analysis at MTs Nurul Islam Mojokerto. The findings indicate that language anxiety is closely related to the fear of making mistakes in pronunciation and sentence structure, as well as the lack of speaking practice in more informal contexts. However, students who demonstrate greater self-confidence in speaking tend to experience lower levels of anxiety. The application of deep learning in this research shows that technology can identify anxiety patterns based on students’ interactions with speaking and writing tasks. In light of these findings, it is recommended that Arabic learning place stronger emphasis on flexible speaking practices and the use of deep learning tools to analyze students’ anxiety. The study also suggests further research to develop more specific deep learning models to address language anxiety across different levels of education.

Abstract

Penelitian bertujuan mengungkap hubungan makna antarkata yang muncul secara berpasangan (kolokasi) dalam teks sastra religius klasik Arab, serta menunjukkan bagaimana pilihan diksi Imam al-Būṣīrī membentuk makna emosional, teologis, dan estetis dalam menggambarkan sosok Nabi Muhammad ﷺ. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan metode analisis semantik untuk menelaah kata-kata berkolokasi dalam bait-bait Syair Al-Burdah. Data dikumpulkan melalui teknik dokumentasi dan dianalisis berdasarkan teori kolokasi J.R. Firth serta konsep semantik kontekstual. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa makna kolokatif dalam Syair Al-Burdah tidak hanya memperlihatkan keterpaduan leksikal, tetapi juga mengandung nilai religius dan moral yang mendalam. Kolokasi seperti “أحشاءه وطوى” dan “الجبال الشم من ذهب” memperlihatkan perpaduan antara keindahan bahasa dan kekuatan makna spiritual, sehingga karya ini tidak hanya bernilai estetis, tetapi juga merefleksikan kedalaman makna simbolik dan kecintaan mendalam kepada Nabi Muhammad ﷺ.

Abstract

This study examines the implementation of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in teaching mahārah al-kalām (Arabic speaking skills) at MTsN Pacitan. The problem addressed is the limited oral communication proficiency among students despite conventional grammar-based instruction. A qualitative descriptive design was adopted to investigate how ICT tools such as learning management systems, video-conferencing platforms, and multimedia-based speaking tasks support student engagement and oral language development. Data were collected through classroom observations, interviews, and document analysis, and were analyzed thematically. The findings indicate that ICT promotes greater interaction, authentic communication practice, and learner confidence, while also supporting differentiated instruction. However, challenges remain in teacher digital competence, infrastructure readiness, and structured task design. The study concludes that ICT integration provides a viable innovation for strengthening Arabic speaking pedagogy in Islamic secondary schools and highlights the need for sustained professional development and system support. These results contribute to ongoing efforts to modernize Arabic language teaching in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the role of Arabic linguistics in the development of modern linguistic theory through an in-depth analysis of the traditions and intellectual contributions of classical Arabic linguists. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this study involves three main stages: data collection from primary and secondary literature, critical analysis of Arabic linguistic theories, and synthesis and interpretation of the results to identify their relevance to contemporary linguistics. The results indicate that Arabic linguistics has made significant contributions in several areas, such as phonology through the analysis of points and modes of articulation; syntax and semantics through Al-Jurjani’s nazm theory; and pragmatics through the balaghah approach, which emphasizes social context and communicative intent. Furthermore, the holistic approach of Arabic linguistics—which integrates phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and aesthetics—enriches modern linguistic insights, which tend to be fragmented. Intellectual transfer through the translation of works by Arabic linguists into Latin also served as the foundation for the development of linguistics in medieval Europe. This study concludes that the Arabic linguistic tradition not only influenced modern linguistic theories but also offers innovative approaches that remain relevant to this day. These findings underscore the importance of exploring the relationship between classical and modern scholarly traditions to understand the complexity of language in a more holistic manner.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of Total Physical Response (TPR) in developing students’ Arabic speaking ability (maharat al-kalām) at MTs Negeri 2 Banggai. A quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent control group was applied to 32 seventh-grade students divided into an experimental class taught through TPR and a control class taught through conventional lecturing. Data were collected through oral pre-test and post-test, classroom observation, student questionnaires, and a teacher interview, and were analyzed using normality and homogeneity tests, Independent Samples t-test, and N-Gain. The experimental group showed a much larger gain in speaking scores than the control group, with N-Gain in the moderate category compared with low effectiveness for the control class, and the difference between groups was statistically significant. The findings indicate that TPR has a meaningful positive impact on students’ Arabic speaking skills and offers a promising pedagogical alternative for madrasah contexts.

Abstract

The development of information technology in the form of Artificial Intelligence based on Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has brought an influence in the world of education, including in Arabic translation activities. One of the technologies that is often used in the translation process is DeepL. This study aims to find out the experience of Arabic language education students in using DeepL to translate texts from Indonesian to Arabic. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with in-depth interview data collection techniques. The research subjects consisted of four Arabic Language Education students of the class of 2024 who were selected using purposive sampling techniques with the criteria of having used DeepL in translation tasks. The results of the study show that DeepL helps students translate texts and sentences faster, increase vocabulary, and make it easier to compose Arabic sentences. However, there are also several obstacles, such as the absence of harakat, inconsistency of rules, and lack of context of meaning in the translation. In addition to providing benefits, DeepL users also have the potential to cause dependence. Therefore, it is necessary to have a critical attitude and evaluative ability in using DeepL as a tool in learning Arabic.

Abstract

Contemporary Arabic literature has evolved into a medium that is not only aesthetically valuable, but also loaded with ideological, social, and political dimensions. This article aims to examine two of the most dominant global issues in contemporary Arabic literature, namely the Palestinian conflict and the Arab feminist movement. The research uses a qualitative-descriptive approach with the methods of literary criticism and literature review, as well as applying the conceptual framework of adab al-muqāwamah and postcolonial feminism. The results of the study show that Palestinian resistance literature functions as a documentation of collective memory, a tool for shaping political consciousness, and a space for psychological recovery. The works of Mahmoud Darwish and Ghassan Kanafani are the main representations of this tradition. Meanwhile, Arab feminist literature represented by Nawal El Saadawi and Hanan Al-Shaykh marks the transformation of women from objects of representation to subjects who voice their own life experiences. These two literary currents have a common point in the concept of intersectionality, which is a combination of the struggle for national liberation and gender equality. This study confirms that contemporary Arabic literature functions as a medium of resistance and social transformation that brings together the struggle for national liberation with the struggle for gender equality.

Abstract

This study, titled “The Relationship Between Referential Meaning and Grammatical Meaning in Arabic Nouns from a Structural-Semantic Perspective,” aims to uncover the relationship between lexical meaning that refers to reality (referential meaning) and meaning formed through syntactic structure (grammatical meaning) in the Arabic language, particularly in the use of nouns in classical literary texts. This study is grounded in structural semantics, which emphasizes the interconnection between linguistic elements in forming a cohesive system of meaning. The research method employed is a qualitative descriptive approach using content analysis. The research data were drawn from verses of the Mu‘allaqah by Imru’ al-Qais, which are rich in noun forms and variations in grammatical structure. Each noun (isim) was analyzed based on its referential context and its function within the sentence structure. The results indicate that the referential meaning of Arabic nouns—such as the words “حبيب,” “منزل,” and “الآرام”—is closely linked to their grammatical meaning, which governs the word’s position and function within the sentence context. The relationship between the two forms a complex network of meaning: referential meaning provides the conceptual foundation, while grammatical meaning clarifies the syntactic and emotional relationships within the text. Thus, the interaction between these two types of meaning enriches the semantic and aesthetic interpretation of classical Arabic poetry.
