Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of role play as a pedagogical method for enhancing Arabic speaking skills among students of the Islamic Education Management Program at Sekolah Tinggi Agama Islam Ma’had Aly Al-Hikam Malang. Motivated by the need for more interactive and practice-oriented instruction particularly in non-language departments the study adopts a descriptive qualitative approach, drawing on classroom observations and semi-structured interviews with students and instructors. The findings indicate that role play substantially improves students’ fluency, confidence, and contextual awareness when using Arabic in Islamic educational settings. Instructors play a central role by crafting realistic scenarios, guiding enactments, and offering targeted feedback. Despite challenges such as limited resources, initial student hesitation, and inconsistent preparation, the method fosters an engaging and authentic learning atmosphere. Students reported heightened motivation, practical gains, and deeper cultural linguistic understanding. The study concludes that role play is a valuable addition to Arabic language teaching strategies, particularly in preparing students for professional communication in Islamic educational contexts. Future research should explore its long-term impact and refine implementation across diverse institutional environments.

Abstract

This study aims to assess the Arabic writing proficiency of tenth-grade students in the PK 1 class of Madrasah Aliyah Negeri Program Keagamaan (MANPK) Jember through analytical evaluation. The sample comprised 20 students, identified as S1–S20. The data were derived from their in-class compositions titled “Simple Essays,” which were analyzed using Jacobs' Analytical Rubric. This rubric evaluates five key components of writing: content, organization, vocabulary, language use, and mechanics. Employing a quantitative descriptive research design, the findings indicate that the majority of students’ Arabic writing skills fall within the “good to average” category. Specifically, 10% of students performed at the “excellent to very good” level across all aspects, 60% at the “good to average” level, and 30% at the “fair to poor” level—though their vocabulary usage remained at a “good to sufficient” level. These findings provide essential feedback for educators aiming to enhance the teaching and learning of Arabic writing skills.

Abstract

Proficiency in the Arabic language is imperative in the context of Islamic education. However, the effective study of Arabic remains a challenge, hindering students' abilities to engage with Islamic texts and communicate in Arabic-speaking environments. Focusing on Pesantren Raudhatul Ulum-Pati, this study investigates the strategies and challenges associated with enhancing Arabic speaking skills in traditional Islamic boarding schools (Pesantren). Specific teaching techniques employed by instructors at this pesantren, aimed at improving students' Arabic speaking abilities, as well as the challenges impeding fluency, were examined through a qualitative research design, including classroom observations and interviews with teachers, administrators, and students. The outcomes highlight the importance of innovative methods and shed light on issues such as a lack of exposure to Arabic-speaking environments. The program implemented in this pesantren serves as an exemplary model for other traditional Islamic boarding schools seeking to elevate their students' proficiency in the Arabic language. The findings of this study hold significant implications for all traditional Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) in Indonesia.

Abstract

This research delves into the intricate dynamics of translating proverbs, aiming to ensure that the essence of the source language is accurately conveyed in the target language. Translating proverbs presents unique challenges due to the inherent cultural and contextual nuances embedded within them. To address this, employing culturally equivalent strategies becomes crucial in faithfully representing the intended meaning. The process of translating through culture is not merely a mechanical task; it serves as a bridge fostering a profound understanding between different cultures. This bridge facilitates the effective communication of proverbial messages in the target language, exemplified by the proverb "Qabla ar-rima tumlau al-kanain." A literal translation fails to capture its essence, but a cultural approach reveals its Indonesian equivalent: "sedia paying sebelum hujan." This stark contrast underscores the necessity of cultural adaptation to convey the intended message accurately. This qualitative study relies on data sourced from various references, such as "Al-Balaghah Al-Wadhihah" and "Al-Amtsal Al-Arabiyyah Wa Al-Amtsal Al-Amiyah: Muqaranah Dalaliyah" by Al-hamzawi. Proverbs are extracted, and the research applies content analysis and a cultural adaptation approach. The fusion of Arabic proverbs with Indonesian counterparts from works like Dipo Udi's "Kumpulan Peribahasa Indonesia" and the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture's "500 Pepatah" allows for a comprehensive analysis. The findings affirm that cultural adaptation effectively conveys proverbial messages. This adaptation involves substituting proverbs with culturally relevant expressions, ensuring a seamless integration into the cultural context of the target language. Ultimately, this research sheds light on the significance of cultural sensitivity in translating proverbs for a more nuanced and accurate representation of their intended meanings.

Abstract

The prevailing methods of Arabic language instruction predominantly rely on didactic approaches involving lectures and memorization, contributing to a waning interest and motivation among students. This pedagogical challenge is exacerbated by the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has significantly impeded traditional learning activities in schools. In response to these impediments, the development of Arabic language learning media utilizing the Lectora Inspire 17 application emerges as a viable solution, fostering an environment conducive to engaging and self-directed learning. This research endeavors to construct an android-based Arabic learning medium employing the Lectora Inspire 17 application. The focus lies on assessing the efficacy and viability of the developed learning media at MTs Hidayatul Athfal Banyurip Alit Pekalongan. Employing the ADDIE development model method (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation), this study conducts a comprehensive examination of the media's feasibility. The evaluation conducted by media experts yielded a favorable percentage of 82%, placing the developed media in the feasible category. Moreover, assessments by subject matter experts resulted in an impressive percentage of 90%, categorizing the material as highly feasible. Notably, students' responses to the learning media demonstrated a substantial approval rate of 90% in the highly feasible category. Consequently, it is evident that the Arabic language learning media based on the Lectora Inspire 17 android application is well-suited to serve as an effective educational tool.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of digital technologies has significantly transformed educational practices, though their integration into language instruction remains uneven. This study explores the digitization of receptive and productive language skills in the ta’bir syafawi (oral expression) course within the Arabic Education Department at Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta, Indonesia, focusing on the use of the institutionally mandated My Klass platform. Framed within broader debates on Arabic digital pedagogy, the study focuses on reconfiguring oral skills instruction. Utilizing a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through detailed observation and documentation of My Klass usage, and analyzed following Miles and Huberman’s model—data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Findings indicate that My Klass, a Moodle-based Learning Management System (LMS), supports two central components: instructional activities (attendance, assignments, discussion forums, feedback) and instructional content (uploaded files, hyperlinks). The platform supports flexible, centralized learning that fosters autonomy and enhances linguistic skills. Nonetheless, the study identifies persistent challenges, including lecturers’ limited technological proficiency, decreased learner engagement, social isolation, and concerns about data privacy. The research highlights My Klass’s pedagogical contributions while underscoring the need for sustained institutional support and enhanced technological capacity to optimize its implementation in Arabic language education.

Abstract

Willingness to Communicate (WTC) plays a crucial role in second language acquisition, significantly influencing both the frequency and fluency of language use across different contexts. This study examines the levels of WTC among students in the Arabic Language Education (PBA) and Arabic Language and Literature (BSA) programs at UIN Raden Mas Said Surakarta, Central Java, Indonesia, within three communicative settings: in-class (IC), out-of-class (OC), and digital contexts (DC). The research further investigates the underlying psychological and contextual factors that shape students’ WTC in Arabic. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, quantitative data were collected from 213 participants  and analyzed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative insights were derived from focus group discussions. Results reveal that BSA students consistently demonstrate higher WTC across all contexts, particularly in classroom interactions. Contributing factors include the learning environment, perceived language competence, and psychological variables such as anxiety and self-confidence. The study underscores the importance of supportive pedagogical environments and participatory teaching strategies in enhancing students’ communicative motivation. By identifying both enabling and inhibiting factors, this research contributes to Arabic language education discourse by advocating for context-sensitive interventions that foster communicative competence and sustain language use in diverse academic and social settings.
