Authors:Eva Dewi, Bermawy Munthe, Arbi Yasin, Afriza Afriza Pages: 1 - 14 Abstract: This study aimed to analyze and explicate the influence of the advent of Latin script (Roman script) on the progress of Malay-Arabic script culture, language, and religion in the archipelago. The arrival of Islam had a major influence on the language, religion, and culture of the archipelago through a script, known as the Malay Arabic script. In the archipelagic history, the reconstruction of local culture through an Arabic-Malay script has affected the growth and progress of civilization. The use of the Malay-Arabic script around the 13th century in the writing tradition in schools and Islamic boarding schools as a medium made it easier to read the Qur'an, to study Arabic grammar, and to learn various aspects of other scientific fields. After that, the situation changed due to the emergence of the Romance script in the 15th century, which was brought by Europeans to the Malay world or the Archipelago. Based on the type of qualitative research using a historical approach, it showed that there was a contestation of the Arabic-Malay script with the emergence of the Romance script in Indonesia. This could be seen from the following: 1) The position of the Arabic-Malay script, which had been popular in society and was entrenched in formal and normal institutions, had been increasingly lost due to the appearance of the Roman script. 2) It was difficult to find references related to religious, social, cultural, and political sciences written in the Arabic-Malay script. 3) The transition from using the Arabic-Malay script to the Roman script also had a religious mission, namely the eradication of Islamic symbols marked by many generations who did not understand the Arabic-Malay script as a medium to make it easier to read the Qur'an and understand religion. Based on this data, it is demonstrated that the study of Arabic-Malay script in today's society is decreasing, and the longer the majesty of the Arabic-Malay script as the Lingua Franca in archipelago civilization can be forgotten if it is not preserved and implemented in formal and non-formal education in Indonesia.

Authors:Fathul Maujud, Dony Handriawan, Septi Patriawati, Muhammad Nurman, Alaa Salah Eldin Saaid Pages: 35 - 54 Abstract: This research aimed to find out: 1) the process of applying the measurement method to learning Arabic grammar in one of the secondary schools in Lombok for the students of class X at Madrasah Aliyah Nida’urrahman Bebie; and 2) the difficulties in applying the qiyasi method to learning Arabic grammar for students in class X at Madrasah Aliyah Nida’urrahman Bebie. As a whole, researchers tried to find the uniqueness of the qiyasi method, while the measurement method was one applied in learning Arabic, especially in learning Arabic grammar in class X at Madrasah Aliyah Nida’urrahman. It is not known whether the method is suitable for all students, considering that this method is more suitable for use at the upper level or university level, whereas students at Madrasa Nida’urrahman come from various educational backgrounds, including beginner-level students. This research employed a descriptive-qualitative method. Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis techniques included data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results fell into the following: 1) The process of applying the measurement method in learning Arabic grammar in class X Madrasah Aliyah Nida’urrahman Bebie demonstrated some information. The teacher repeated the lesson from the previous week, explained certain grammar, and gave examples. Hence, with these examples, the teacher explained the rules in more detail. After it was deemed sufficient, the teacher asked students to work in questions from the book to find out the extent of their understanding of materials that had been explained. 2) The obstacles in the application of the measurement method in class X Madrasah Aliyah Nida’urrahman Bebie subsumed (a) the obstacles faced by the teacher, namely the different backgrounds of students, and environmental factors; and (b) the obstacles faced by students covering a lack of knowledge, boredom when studying, and sleepiness when studying.

Authors:Haniah Haniah, Mahira Mahira, Muh. Napis Djuaeni Pages: 55 - 80 Abstract: This study aimed to develop interactive e-book-based teaching materials for Madrasah Aliyah students in class X to support independent learning and to assess the levels of validity and practicability of their use. The growth of students' learning is positively impacted by the creation of teaching materials that are appropriate for their circumstances and ages, especially those that encourage independent learning. Field evidence indicates that students must build their knowledge outside the classroom to learn effectively, as suggested by the constructivist theory. This research employed the research and development method with the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) model. The data were collected through questionnaires and observations and then analyzed using descriptive statistical techniques. The product of this research was an interactive e-book assisted by a Heyzine Flipbook with al-tahiyyat wa al-ta’aruf materials that could be accessed online via smartphones, tablets, and laptops. Based on the validation conducted by media experts, material specialists, and Arabic linguists, the validity of this product was rated as legitimate and worth testing with a feasibility score of 4.42, which was good, and an average eligibility percentage of 88%. Responses from 40 students and five Arabic teachers, who had a very positive response rate of 91%, were used to determine the practical value of use. Based on these results, the interactive e-book-based teaching materials assisted by the Heyzine Flipbook al-tahiyyat wa al-ta’aruf materials for Madrasah Aliyah students were valid and practical for use.

Authors:Ramadhani Rahmatillah, Zakiyah Arifa, Nur Kholid Pages: 93 - 112 Abstract: This research aimed to continue the previous research by describing Arabic language teachers’ lesson plans at MAN 2, MA Muhammadiyah, and MA Al-Umm in Malang, as these lesson plans were affected by the school environment. This research sought to describe the differences in lesson plans designed and implemented by Arabic teachers at the aforesaid schools. This research deployed a qualitative approach and the case study method with multiple case studies. The data were garnered from interviews and documentation. The research results showed differences in planning methods, bases, and sources of learning among these schools, which were caused by differences in the availability of teachers and systems at each school. The teachers planned to teach the Arabic language in MAN 2 based on KMA 183 using the joint method and group technique, while the Arabic language teacher in MA Muhammadiyah planned lessons based on the same report. The Arabic language teacher at MA Al-Umm planned lessons individually based on her own innovations. Therefore, each school should provide a supportive program to improve the competencies of the Arabic language teachers in planning lessons.

Authors:Agus Yasin, Hidia Tarauni Pages: 113 - 136 Abstract: This study aimed to develop a speaking-skill test at the B1 of CEFR, to determine the levels of validity, reliability, and difficulty of each item, and to organize the distinguishing power of each item on the prepared test. This research was motivated by the need of Arabic Language Test as an evaluation activity that required for various purposes. Several universities in Indonesia have also intended the existence of a language test as a requirement for continuing studies to a higher degree or to a place where linguistic proficiency is required or work somewhere. Also, the most important is to upgrade students’ language skills after knowing their language abilities. This test was in the form of an aptitude test or an ability test for each skill in the Arabic language. But in the speaking skill, this test still required preparation and development of more test questions to practice. Apart from the test questions, the method of assessment and the procedures for its implementation also needed to be developed and considered. Then, the researchers took account of the need to compile and make a good test product in speaking skills by following the steps for preparing a standardized test. This was the Research and Development (R&D) with Borg and Gall’s version. The researchers used the ANATES V.0.5 2022 application for processing data and analyzing test results. Based on the results of the study, it was found that the test was feasible because it met the requirements of a good test. The trial results showed high validity and reliability values, and the level of difficulty of each item also had good distinguishing power. Out of a total of 17 questions, 13 questions were stated to be very valid, 2 questions were valid, and 2 questions were striped (-), indicating that these two questions needed to be re-analyzed on what aspects made them less valid so that the questions could be revised. These values were obtained from the results of two trials conducted in the sixth semester. PubDate: 2023-05-03 DOI: 10.29240/jba.v7i1.6390 Issue No:Vol. 7, No. 1 May (2023)
Authors:Suci Ramadhanti Febriani, Imam Asrori, Sutaman Sutaman Pages: 137 - 158 Abstract: This research aimed to analyze Arabic language learning strategies based on curriculum integration from the perspective of Bloom's Taxonomy at Diniyah Puteri Islamic Boarding School.

Authors:Somanudin Somanudin, Siti Atiatul Wafiroh, Rizzaldy Satria Wiwaha, Yeni nuraini, Sangidu Sangidu Pages: 159 - 180 Abstract: This research aims to conduct a structural analysis of the novel Dima'un Fi Qasr al-Chamra by Ehab Farouk Hosny. This novel raises an important cultural story in the history of Islamic civilization in Spain. It tells the story of a beautiful woman from Egypt, named Sarah, an archaeologist who researches Islamic heritage buildings both in her own country and in other countries. It tells the history of Andalusia, now Spain, starting from discovering a map buried in one of the rooms in Sultan Hasan's mosque in Cairo. The map was a secret document of the Alhambra belonging to the great scientist Al Zahrawi (Albucasis), containing a chemical composition to treat cancer. This paper has two main objectives: the practical and theoretical objectives. The realistic goal is to reveal the intrinsic and coherent elements and the interrelationship between one part and another. Meanwhile, the academic goal is to discover a secret document belonging to el-Zahrawi, a scientist, containing a cancer drug's composition. To remind readers that the discovery of personal papers, in any case, should not be announced in public because it can be dangerous and will cause various problems in obtaining certain benefits and goals. The theory used is a structural theory, which focuses on literary works viewed as a unified and integrated structure. The technical method is the structural method, which works structurally by revealing and describing the intrinsic elements in "Dima'un Fi Qashril-Chamra" by Ehab Farouk Hosny and connecting the mutual relationships between the parts. This technique uses formalism representing literary works such as character, plot, motif, theme, and language. The method used in this research is library research. Library study is a technique of collecting data and information by examining written sources such as scientific journals, reference books, literature, etc., related to this discussion. Based on its nature, this research is classified as qualitative research using descriptive analysis techniques. PubDate: 2023-05-03 DOI: 10.29240/jba.v7i1.5997 Issue No:Vol. 7, No. 1 May (2023)
Authors:Yunita Dwi Pramesti, Fahmi Gunawan, Muhammad Yunus Anis Pages: 181 - 202 Abstract: The present study aimed to analyze the captions of TikTok application from the perspective of translation techniques, methods, and ideology. As a matter of fact, although many scholars have researched the application of TikTok as a learning medium, less is known about it from the perspective of translation studies. The data of this study were derived from Arabic–Indonesian captions in the personal accounts of Abu Danah and Ahmad Al-Kurman, uploaded families from August to December 2021. The findings showcased the most dominant translation techniques found in 27 captions in the Abu Danah family account. 20 captions of Ahmad Al-Kurman were identified as a transposition translation technique. The translation method found in the caption of Abu Danah family account tended to use communicative methods and domestication ideology. In contrast, the translation method and ideology inclined to be used in the translation of Ahmad Al-Kurman's captions were free a translation method and the ideology of domestication. The study’s results concluded that the applications of transposition translation technique, the translation method tending to target languages, and the domestication ideology referred to translators' efforts to make it easier for readers to understand the translation results on TikTok media with its minimal space. Thus, short-form Arabic social media texts should be applied the free translation method based on domestication ideology in order to have a high level of readability.

Authors:Slamet Riyadi, Rozaanah Rozaanah, Hisyam Zaini Pages: 203 - 218 Abstract: This research aimed to probe into the implementation of Daurah Mukatssafah program. As in introductory lens, the mastery of Arabic language competence is the primary basis for students taking study programs at tertiary institutions with Arabic as the language of instruction, both in Arab countries and abroad. Meanwhile, not all students have sufficient basic Arabic skills as an initial state to understand the materials presented in the classroom. As a solution, several tertiary institutions provide language preparation programs for students, but these must be completed within 1 to 2 years. The intensive learning model carried out for three months at the As-Sunnah Islamic College as a pilot program is thought to be able to replace the language preparation program with equally effective results. This research used a qualitative naturalistic approach where the research was carried out naturally following the program implemented in the field without manipulating the existing variables. Furthermore, the data were described and compared objectively with data from existing language preparation programs. Daurah Mukatssafah was carried out in two main activities. First, learning the Arabic book Baina Yadaik starting from volume 1 to 6, intensively in classes guided by several lecturers in each class. Second, language mastery used a language immersion model outside the classroom. The results found a significant increase in students' Arabic proficiency, equivalent to 1-year learning outcomes in the Language Preparation Class.

Authors:Yuyun Zunairoh Pages: 257 - 276 Abstract: This study aimed to reveal the use of cognitive and metacognitive strategies by university students in maharah qiraah and to compare such strategies with the success of their learning. Hence, The results can describe the differences in learning outcomes among students using cognitive and metacognitive strategies. This study also sought to get an overview of the cognitive and metacognitive practices in maharah qiraah. As time went by, such practices of learning strategies certainly got some modifications and needed to be reviewed. This research was descriptive-quantitative. The instruments used were 1) a questionnaire adapted from Oxford’s Strategy Inventory for Language Learning; and 2) follow-up interviews to explore the cognitive and metacognitive practices. Conclusion to be drawn was that 62.9% of the students used metacognitive strategies; 17.74% of the students used cognitive strategies; and 19.36% of the students used both cognitive and metacognitive strategies. The questionnaire data were continuously processed by reviewing students’ average scores in maharah qiraah. The students using metacognitive strategies obtained a score of 86.15, while those using cognitive strategies obtained a score of 87.73. Subsequently, thos using both strategies received a score of 85.58. It was concluded that there was no difference in learning outcomes between students who used cognitive, metacognitive, or both strategies. From interview findings, there were several variations in the use of cognitive and metacognitive learning strategies used by students. Cognitive strategies consisted of identifying words and marking them, speed reading to get an outline or main idea, translating, reading repeatedly, using dictionaries and several other sources, analyzing, and reasoning. In the meantime, metacognitive strategies were carried out consciously by focusing attention, organizing alongside planning learning processes, monitoring, and evaluating learning processes. This study has implications to provide an overview of the development of practical forms of cognitive and metacognitive learning strategies so such strategies can be adapted by other language learners.

Authors:Toto Edidarmo, Achmad Fudhaili Pages: 315 - 344 Abstract: This study aimed to explore the basic concept of Arabic learning based on spiritual motivation as a new approach to learning Arabic in Indonesia, where most of the population is Muslim. In Indonesia’s learning context, Arabic has a dual role as a means of communication and a tool to explore various kinds of Islamic knowledge. This study used descriptive analysis and document analysis methods, by examining various kinds of Arabic scientific literature and learning methodologies and educational documents unique to Indonesia. This study’s results indicated that students’ motivation to learn Arabic pedagogically is to get closer to Allah SWT and love the Prophet. In the development of Arabic, spiritual motivation can be applied to three things, namely learning achievement indicators seen from the level of obedience to Allah and social interactions, the learning process which includes the visualization of Islamic sacred symbols, textbooks whose sources are adapted from the Al-Quran, Hadith, and the advice of Ulama’. Learning Arabic in a spiritual context can encourage a greater interest in learning it and promote its use as a medium of communication and expression as well as being a medium of getting closer to God.

Authors:Muhammad Rizal, Mohamad Zaka Al Farisi, Asep Sopian Pages: 345 - 362 Abstract: This research aimed to determine the effectiveness of peer teaching with card media in Arabic syntax learning. This goal was based on the problem of students' low abilities to understand Arabic syntax. These students’ low abilities were caused by the application of inappropriate learning methods and media while learning Arabic syntax. Moreover, this research also determined students' responses on the topic above. This research used a quasi-experimental design method with a non-equivalent control group design model. This research incorporated a sample of 58 students. Furthermore, the researchers collected the data using tests and questionnaires (with the Likert scale) and analyzed them with descriptive statistics and N-Gain test. The results showed that the average score of the N-Gain in the experimental group was 56.18; while the one in the control group was 17.87. The former was higher than the latter regarding students’ abilities in Arabic syntax. This indicated that peer teaching using card media was effective in Arabic syntax learning (especially in the moderate category). The questionnaire results also demonstrated that the average of students' responses to the application of the method above and media was 78.95%; hence it belonged to a positive category. This signifies that the method and media are of essential components in learning processes. PubDate: 2023-05-03 DOI: 10.29240/jba.v7i1.5860 Issue No:Vol. 7, No. 1 May (2023)
Authors:Nyimas Umi Kalsum, Naffa Rachmadini Pages: 363 - 388 Abstract: The purpose of this writing is to prove that there is a threat of discontinuity of ancient scripts in Malay Islamic manuscripts. Preservation of cultural heritage in the form of ancient script tends to be ignored. Abandonment of ancient scripts in the form of discontinuity the inheritance of ancient scripts; discontinuity of ancient script writing and discontinuity due to myths. In fact, these three aspects have the effect of threatening the discontinuity of ancient script. Through direct and indirect observation of digital collections of ancient manuscripts and free interviews with informants consisting of government agencies, traditional leaders and communities of ancient script lovers. Three ancient scripts that are threatened with discontinuity were found: (1) Jawi script, (2) Ulu script and (3) Lontaraq script. To then do data analysis by means of descriptive, interpretive and reflective of the existing data. This research shows that the government's policy regarding the preservation of cultural heritage must be handed down by the local government in an effort to preserve ancient scripts with outreach, workshops/training as a condition for the sustainability of cultural heritage. In addition, recruitment of ancient script experts is needed to increase qualified human resources and ancient script experts so that local content subjects can be realized. This is important to increase the preservation of ancient scripts. PubDate: 2023-06-13 DOI: 10.29240/jba.v7i1.7327 Issue No:Vol. 7, No. 1 (2023)
