Surah Yasin itself also has the privilege of several aspects, one of which is in the linguistic aspect in which it contains a lot of 'only' and other language styles such as hyperbole and personification. This research tries to uncover the existence of hyperbolic language styles and personifications structure contained in the Qur'an especially in Surah Yasin. The research method used by the researcher is a literature study by reading various literature and understanding theories related to and relevant to the topic being studied, with the analysis model using ‘content analysis’ adopted by the researcher from the content analysis model of the Kripperndorff Clause. The results of this research found that there were five verses containing a hyperbolic language style in Surah Yasin, those are in verses 28, 29, 75, 78, and 72. Then five verses were found that contained a personification structure in Surah Yasin, those are in verses 33, 38, 40, 46, and 49.

This study aims to implement Arabic animation videos in learning Maharah Istima' (listening skills) based on behavioristic theory. The background of this research is based on the challenges in learning Arabic, especially in improving students' listening skills which are often considered less interesting and monotonous. Behavioristic theory was chosen because it emphasizes habit formation through repetition and reinforcement, which is considered effective in language learning. In addition, there are three reinforcements in behavioristic theory that are stimuli to get a good response from students, namely positive, negative, and punishment reinforcement. The research method used is a descriptive qualitative research method. The participants in this study are students in class PBA A UIN Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang. Data was collected through interviews and observation of student activities during learning. The data analysis technique used is the Miles & Huberman interactive analysis technique with three stages, namely data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The results of the study show that the use of Arabic animation videos in Istima' learning can help students increase motivation and understanding. The behavioristic theory used during the learning process can make students focus in class. The implication of this study is the importance of integrating technology and creative media in learning Arabic, especially in developing more interactive and interesting learning methods based on relevant learning theories. This research contributes to the development of innovative Arabic language learning strategies oriented towards improving students' skills.

Vocabulary mastery is one of the crucial aspects in Arabic language learning that plays a role in improving students' language skills, both in understanding texts, writing, and speaking. However, in practice, many students experience difficulties in memorizing and understanding Arabic vocabulary due to learning methods that are still conventional, less interactive, and not interesting for students. The lack of using innovative learning media is also one of the factors that affect students' low vocabulary mastery. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the effectiveness of using CORD - MAM Challenge media in improving the mastery of Arabic vocabulary in grade V students of MI Mambaul Khoir Talang Prigen Pasuruan. This study used quantitative method with Pre-Experiment One Group Pre-test-Post-test design. The research subjects consisted of 27 students who were randomly selected as samples, Data were collected through observation, interview, pre-test and post-test to measure the level of vocabulary mastery before and after the application of media and documentation. The results showed a significant increase in students' vocabulary mastery after learning using this media. The average pre-test score of 67,78 increased to 83,15 in the post-test. The Paired Sample T-Test results showed a significance value of 0,00 (p < 0,05), which indicates a significant effect of using this media on improving student learning outcomes. This finding shows that the use of CORD - MAM Challenge in Arabic language learning is able to increase students' active involvement and create a more fun and interactive learning atmosphere. This challenge-based learning model not only helps students in remembering and understanding vocabulary better, but also increases their learning motivation. Therefore, this method can be used as an effective alternative in Arabic language learning, especially in teaching vocabulary at the primary school level.

Learning media is important to meet the needs of students in the learning process in order to achieve a learning goal. This study aims to determine students' perceptions of the use of quizwhizzer media in learning maharah qira'ah, to determine the maharah qira'ah ability of students before and after using quizwhizzer platform media, and to test and prove the effectiveness of quizwhizzer platform media used in learning maharah qira'ah. This research uses a pre-experimental quantitative approach with a one group pretest-posttest research design. The data collection methods used in this study were questionnaires and tests. The data analysis technique used in this research is descriptive statistical analysis and interferential statistical analysis including data normality test, t test (paired sample t test), N-Gain test (effectiveness). The findings of this study state that there is a difference between pretest scores smaller than posttest scores with an average of 30.97 <83.27. These results are also said to have increased by looking at the level of significance through the paired sample t test (sig 0.000 <0.05, then Ha is accepted). The percentage obtained from the N-Gain test shows 75.49% through the basis of decision making categorized as “quite effective”. It can be concluded that the use of quizwhizzer platform media in learning maharah qira'ah is proven to be able to improve maharah qira'ah. And the quizwhizzer media platform is “quite effective” to be used as a medium or evaluation of maharah qira'ah learning. Learning using gamification-based media such as QuizWhizzer makes a positive contribution to learning by creating a more interesting and interactive learning experience. This has an impact on the achievement of more optimal learning objectives. Therefore, QuizWhizzer can be used as an effective learning or evaluation media in teaching maharah qira'ah.

This study aims to determine the orientation and steps of Nahwu learning in Arabic I courses. Then analyze the obstacles in Nahwu learning and the factors that cause these obstacles. This research was conducted at the Faculty of Sharia, UIN Sultan Maulana Hasanuddin Banten, using a qualitative research design with a case study type. The results of this study indicate that. Nahwu learning at the Faculty of Sharia is oriented towards active learning with inductive learning strategies and individual conventional learning techniques. The learning steps refer to the components of educational and teaching methods and are based on PAIKEM. The problem of learning Nahwu consists of (a) supporting factors, including internal factors, including the physical condition of students, student competence, student tendencies, and motivation; external factors, including the Arabic language environment, the presence of native speakers, competent lecturers, teaching materials, exercises, and reward and punishment systems. (b) Inhibiting factors include internal factors, including student self-confidence and differences in student backgrounds, as well as lack of student motivation and commitment, lack of Arabic language environment, and low effectiveness of efforts; external factors include lack of supervision and recording, changes in course schedules, and lack of learning media.
