Q & A

What is the main purpose of the Arabic language activities at the pondok?

The main purpose is to help santri (students) learn and practice Arabic regularly, focusing on vocabulary (mufradat) and phrases (ibarah), which are essential for improving their skills in understanding, speaking, and writing Arabic.

When are the mandatory language practice sessions scheduled?

The mandatory language practice sessions are scheduled at night after completing the memorization of Mutun (textbooks). They are held on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings, usually after 10:00 PM, with a break for Quran recitation.

What role does the 'notes' system play in these activities?

The 'notes' system requires each room to purchase a notebook. Santri must write down their vocabulary or phrases in the notes and submit them as part of their language learning. This system ensures that all students participate and track their progress.

How are the students' language submissions monitored?

The language submissions are monitored by designated staff members, who check the notes for each room and ensure that all students submit their vocabulary or phrases. Students who fail to submit their work are not allowed to participate in the 'Mahawarah' (language practice sessions).

What is the 'Mahawarah' activity?

The 'Mahawarah' activity involves students presenting stories or topics in Arabic. Each student stands and shares their story, either taken from books or created themselves, helping them practice speaking and improve their fluency in Arabic.

What skills are primarily developed through the 'Mahawarah' activity?

The 'Mahawarah' activity primarily helps students improve their listening (maharatul istima), speaking (maharatul kalam), and writing (maharatul kitabah) skills in Arabic. It encourages them to express themselves more effectively in the language.

How does the involvement of murakib (supervisors) support the students?

Murakib (supervisors) are assigned to each room to monitor the students' progress. They are responsible for guiding and supporting their assigned group, ensuring each student understands and improves their Arabic skills.

Why is it important for santri to understand Arabic in this pondok setting?

Understanding Arabic is crucial because many lessons are taught by visiting scholars (syuyukh) from foreign countries. Without knowledge of Arabic, students would not be able to understand or benefit from these teachings.

What are the long-term goals for the Arabic language program at this pondok?

The long-term goals are to maintain Arabic as a living and thriving language at the pondok, ensuring that students not only learn it but also appreciate and use it in their daily lives. The aim is to keep Arabic education vibrant and essential for both understanding religious texts and interacting with scholars.

What is the hoped-for impact of these activities on the students' attitude toward Arabic?

The hope is that these activities will foster a sense of care and respect for the Arabic language among the students. By practicing and engaging with the language regularly, they are expected to develop a deep appreciation for it and see its value in their education and religious practices.
