Derivation and Inflection Inaccuracies: A Morphological Error Matrix for Improving Arabic Writing Competence in the Pesantren Context
This study aims to identify and analyze morphological errors found in students’ weekly insha’ writings within the Pesantren (Islamic boarding school) environment. These errors, especially in derivation (ishtiqāq) and verb conjugation (taṣrīf), indicate limited consolidation of essential sharf principles. Despite the consistent implementation of weekly insha’ activities, dominant error patterns persist, revealing a gap between morphological theory and actual language use. Data were collected from students’ written works, semi-structured interviews with teachers and learners, and classroom observations to capture the teaching learning context. A qualitative content analysis was applied using a deductive-inductive coding process to classify errors into categories such as incorrect fi‘l forms, wazn inconsistencies, and misuse of ism patterns violating sharf rules. A morphological error-tracking matrix was designed to map and interpret these morphological deviations systematically. The findings demonstrate that limited contextual reinforcement and lack of applied practice contribute to recurring errors. Consequently, this study highlights the need to reorient sharf instruction toward integrative and practice-based approaches, with the morphological error-tracking matrix serving as both diagnostic and pedagogical innovation.

Exploring Transformational Generative Grammar in Arabic Textbooks for Junior High School: A Qualitative Library Research
This study addresses students’ difficulties in learning Arabic due to the limited relevance of existing textbooks. Using Chomsky’s Transformative-Generative Grammar Theory (TGT) as an analytical framework, the research explores the application of singular transformation rules in the ninth-grade Arabic textbook published by the Ministry of Religious Affairs. Chomsky’s theory, which emphasizes grammatical structure and transformation processes, is applied to improve students’ grammatical and communicative competence. Employing a qualitative descriptive design with a library-based approach, the study identifies six transformation rules: elimination, expansion, addition, change of order, replacement, and abbreviation. The findings indicate that integrating TGT into Arabic instruction through methods such as the Direct Method can enhance students’ grammatical understanding and vocabulary mastery. The study suggests that future research examine other linguistic aspects of similar textbooks to further strengthen the pedagogical application of linguistic theory in Arabic learning.

Spectrographic Characteristics of the Elevation Phonemes on the Pronunciation of Apico-Dental in Surah Al-Fatihah
Correct pronunciation of Qur’anic sounds is crucial, especially for elevation sounds such as /tˁ/ and /dˁ/. This study analyzes their spectrographic characteristics in Surah Al-Fatiha recitation by non-native Arabic speakers, as Indonesian speakers (Ummi teachers in Bandung), compared to native Arabic speakers. Using a qualitative comparative method with a case study approach, data from four participants (two males and two females) were collected through recording, listening, and transcription. The analysis uses Praat to examine parameters such as duration, fundamental frequency (F0), intensity, and formants. The Findings show Indonesian speakers pronounce /tˁ/ with longer duration, higher F0, and lower intensity; for /dˁ/, they show shorter duration, higher F0, and lower intensity than natives. Male Indonesians resemble native speakers more closely. Gender analysis reveals males have shorter durations and lower F0 than females. Both groups show similar formant patterns despite acoustic differences, indicating phonetic adaptation. These findings contribute to Arabic phonetics education by highlighting specific acoustic features in non-native pronunciation.

Item Analysis of Insya’ Assessment Based on Bloom’s Taxonomy at Islamic Senior High School Darussalam Rajapolah Tasikmalaya
Despite the widespread use of Insya’ assessments in educational institutions, comprehensive evaluations of item quality covering validity, reliability, discrimination, difficulty, and cognitive levels based on Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy remain limited. Previous studies rarely integrate statistical analysis with cognitive classification, particularly in high school Arabic education. This study addresses that gap by analyzing ten Insya’ assessment items from Grade 12 students at Islamic Senior High School Darussalam Tasikmalaya. Data consisted of exam questions, student answers, and scores, supported by literature. Collection methods involved interviews, observation, and documentation, with analysis conducted using SPSS version 30. The results showed 80% of items were valid, with a reliability coefficient of 0.743. Discrimination analysis rated 30% very good, 40% good, 10% acceptable, and 20% poor. Difficulty analysis revealed that 10% of the items were difficult, 70% were moderate, and 20% were easy. Cognitive levels indicated 80% assessed Understanding (C2), 10% Applying (C3), and 10% Creating (C6), with only 10% categorized as higher-order thinking skills (HOTS). These findings highlight the need for improved item design that promotes higher-order thinking and aligns more effectively with cognitive learning goals.

How Does Achievement Goal Orientation Affect the Process of Learning Arabic? A Narrative Inquiry Study
This study examines how different achievement goal orientations influence learning styles and academic performance among students in the Arabic Language Education (PBA) program. Using a narrative inquiry approach, data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving students and lecturers at STIT Darul Fattah. Data analysis followed Miles and Huberman’s four-stage model: data collection, condensation, display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal two dominant goal orientations: Performance Approach and Mastery Approach. Students with a performance-oriented mindset often adopt a diverging learning style and achieve high academic performance across subjects. In contrast, students with a mastery orientation tend to align with an assimilating style, excelling in courses that match their personal learning goals and intellectual interests. Drawing on David Kolb’s experiential learning theory, the study highlights how achievement goals shape learning styles, which in turn affect academic outcomes. This research underscores a dynamic and reciprocal relationship between motivation, learning preferences, and success in Arabic language learning, offering actionable insights for educators to tailor instruction based on students' motivational profiles and enhance language learning effectiveness.

Arabic Speech Act: Investigating Students' Pragmalinguistic Competence in Requesting and Apologizing Expressions
This study aimed to determine the speech act strategies of requesting and apologizing sentences in Arabic produced by Non-Native Speakers (NNS). This study used a qualitative approach with a case study design. Participants in this study were 50 students of the Arabic Language Education Study Program at Jambi University. The results of this study suggest that the most dominant request strategy is conventionally indirect (60%), especially the query preparatory sub-strategy, which is used to maintain politeness by asking questions without the impression of forcing. In addition, the direct strategy with the sub-strategy of the derivable mood (imperative) is also used, although with a lower frequency, with polite expressions such as "min faḍlika" to maintain politeness. Non-conventionally indirect strategies (5%) were also found, where speakers gave indirect hints to convey requests subtly. The apology strategy was the most frequently used (68%), followed by acknowledgment of responsibility (20%) and promise of non-recurrence (10%). The explanation or account strategy was used at a shallow frequency (2%).

Arabic Teacher’s Humanistic Deauthorization: Online Teaching Experience in Islamic Higher Education
The distance learning policy poses several challenges for Arabic teachers, students, and parents and causes a decrease in humanistic authority among teachers. Online learning tends to weaken their role in this aspect. This study identifies activities teachers can no longer do during online Arabic learning. In addition, this study also explores the factors that cause the erosion of this humanistic role. Using a qualitative descriptive method through interviews and focus group discussions (FGDs) with several teachers, this study found seven challenging activities for teachers, such as providing individual guidance to students face-to-face. Technology that acts as a communication medium between teachers and students causes limitations in understanding each student's character in depth. It is recommended that educators adopt a more adaptive approach, which can view students as active subjects in the learning process.

Application Programs for Learning Arabic in the Industrial Era 4.0: A Qualitative Analysis of Teachers and Students in Aceh
This article describes learning Arabic using online applications in secondary and tertiary schools in the Aceh region. It analyzes the benefits and obstacles faced by teachers and students. This research uses the qualitative-analytical approach using Creswell's analysis theory, including data preparation and processing, building a general sense of information, and coding and interpreting the data. This research shows that learning the Arabic language through online applications is an activity that provides information, especially Arabic language studies, through the Internet, such as via WhatsApp, Google Classroom, Zoom, Kahoot, and Quizizz applications. Using these applications makes them more knowledgeable in developing their technology capabilities. Technology can accustom students to independent learning and not rely on the teacher's explanation alone, creating the habit of reading and analyzing educational materials. One of the obstacles to learning through electronic media is the lack of access to the Internet in rural areas of Aceh. There are no computers or laptops for students, and there are materials that are difficult to understand.

Data analysis methods include condensation, display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The research results show that students' linguistic errors in Insya Muwajjah learning include four errors. First, phonetics, namely, students cannot differentiate between letters that have similar sounds. Second, morphological, namely, students do not understand word changes. Third, syntax, namely, students' lack of grammar understanding, so there are still many errors in the final lines of words. Fourth, semantics: many students still use inappropriate words in sentences.
Digitalization of Arabic Language Textbook Based on Communicative Learning to Improve the Linguistic Competence of Madrasah Tsanawiyah Students
Boredom in learning Arabic often occurs among students due to the lack of variety in teaching methods. This phenomenon must be answered immediately by creating contemporary learning variations. This research aimed to develop a digital Arabic book for class VIII Madrasah Tsanawiyah based on communicative learning. This research is of the Research and Development (R&D) type with Borg and Gall development steps. After conducting a survey of student needs and carrying out the steps of development research, the researchers developed a digital Arabic book, available at https://amba.my.id/login. This digital book has been validated for suitability by two subject matter experts and one media design expert. In its implementation, this digital book is very interesting and easy for students to use, effectively reducing students' boredom while learning Arabic. Moreover, this digital book also effectively improves students' Arabic language skills.
Exploration of Interaction and Mapping Interaction Research in Second Language Learning Content Analysis Based on Books Rod Ellis
This study examines the concepts of Interaction and Mapping Interaction Research in Second Language Learning in the Classroom: Content Analysis Based on Rod Ellis's "Language Teaching Research and Language Pedagogy." The study applies a qualitative approach with a literature review design, utilizing data collection techniques such as documentation and literature review, followed by content analysis. This study indicates that Rod Ellis discusses the abilities involved in interaction, employing a sociocultural theory perspective to examine the development of second language learning. This theory emphasizes microgenetic and quasi-experimental studies on language learning through social interaction and internal learner growth. Rod Ellis also studies how classroom input and interaction improve second language learning using interactionist-cognitive theory, which emphasizes the function of interaction in delivering input that learners inwardly analyze. This perspective draws upon research employing descriptive/exploratory approaches.
