Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Teaching Arabic in Salafi Dayahs is essential for preserving the Islamic scholarly heritage rooted in classical Islamic texts (Kitab Kuning). The digital era presents both opportunities and challenges for Salafi Dayahs to enhance the development of Arabic language learning within these institutions. This study aims to examine the readiness and approaches adopted by Salafi Dayahs in Aceh in teaching Arabic in the multimedia era. The research employs a descriptive qualitative method, using observation and interview instruments. The findings reveal that Salafi Dayahs in Aceh, particularly in Nagan Raya, still rely on classical methods and approaches for teaching Arabic. These include using Kitab Kuning as the primary medium, traditional lecture-based methods, and rote memorization. Technology use is limited to using smartphones by the Teungku (teachers) for translating and interpreting texts. Arabic language learning in Salafi Dayahs still emphasizes profound respect for teachers (ta'zhim), resulting in minimal use of digital media in the learning process.
