Abstract

The Arabic letter “Lām (ل)” is considered one of the most significant and versatile particles in Arabic grammar due to its wide range of syntactic and semantic functions. Its meanings vary among ownership, specification, causation, emphasis, and oath, making it one of the most complex yet richest particles in the Arabic linguistic system. This study aims to identify the types, functions, and meanings of Lām to facilitate understanding among learners and teachers of Arabic and to promote accurate usage in interpreting Qur’anic, prophetic, and rhetorical texts.The research adopts a library-based qualitative method, collecting data from classical grammatical references such as Mughnī al-Labīb by Ibn Hishām, al-Jin al-Dānī by al-Murādī, and modern linguistic works addressing the semantics of particles. The findings show that Lām is divided into operative (ʿāmilah) types—such as the genitive Lām, Lām of command, and Lām of purpose—and non-operative (ghayr ʿāmilah) types—such as Lām of initiation, Lām al-muzahlaqah, Lām al-fāriqah, and others. Its function shifts according to sentence structure and context, expressing possession, causation, emphasis, or oath. This research highlights the precision and richness of Arabic syntax and underscores Lām as a key element in understanding grammatical relationships and subtle meanings within Arabic discourse.

Abstract

The barodak tradition practiced by the Tau Samawa community in Sumbawa, West Nusa Tenggara, is a ritual performed before a wedding procession or circumcision, involving the stretching of the bride-to-be’s body using a traditional herb called odak. Although it appears as a physical ceremony, barodak carries deep symbolic and spiritual dimensions, and in local belief, neglecting the ritual may lead to physical or metaphysical disturbances. The problem addressed in this study is the tension perceived between the preservation of local cultural rituals and the internalization of Islamic values within contemporary Samawa society. The purpose of this research is to analyze how the Sumbawa community negotiates the relationship between customary practices and Islamic teachings. Using an ethnographic qualitative method, this study employs direct observation, in-depth interviews, and indigenous documentation to explore culture–religion interaction in the barodak ritual. The findings reveal that the community does not reject Islam; instead, they integrate religious principles into customary practices in a harmonious and adaptive manner. The barodak tradition reflects the community’s capacity to maintain cultural continuity while upholding spiritual norms. The contribution of this research lies in offering a contextual understanding of how local rituals function as a medium for expressing collective cultural and religious identity. It highlights the importance of safeguarding local traditions such as barodak as part of cultural preservation efforts that remain aligned with spiritual and communal values.

Abstract

This research was conducted descriptively to identify gaps, synthesize relevant concepts, and formulate the most appropriate theoretical model. The study produced a Project-Based Learning (PjBL) framework for creating Arabic culture–based storytelling that is ready to be implemented in the classroom. This model is designed to encourage students to collaborate actively and use Arabic in authentic contexts—namely by creating and presenting stories—so it is expected to enhance their speaking skills (mahārat al-kalām). In addition, the model is anticipated to increase students’ learning motivation and their understanding of Arab culture. Conceptually, this model is feasible to apply and has the potential to become an effective new approach to making Arabic language instruction more engaging and practical.The implications of this study indicate that the developed framework can serve as a guideline for teachers in designing more contextual and creative project-based Arabic language learning. Implementing this model has the potential to promote cultural integration in language teaching, improve the quality of communicative interaction in the classroom, and strengthen performance-based learning. Furthermore, this research opens opportunities for the development of media, assessments, and curricula that support Arabic cultural storytelling across different educational levels.
