The Employment of Jurisprudential Terminologies in Developing Speaking and Reading Skills among Non-Native Learners of Arabic توظيف المفردات الاصطلاحية الفقهية في تنمية مهارتي الكلام والقراءة لدى متعلمي العربية الناطقين بغيرها

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the terminological vocabulary related to the jurisprudence of prayer, particularly in the chapters of congregational prayer and Friday prayer from the book Minhaj al-Talibin by Imam al-Nawawi, and to explain its utilization in developing speaking and reading skills for non-native Arabic learners. The significance of this study lies in linking fiqh vocabulary with language learning applications, which helps learners understand Islamic texts and use Arabic appropriately in relevant contexts. This study employed a descriptive-analytical method with a library research approach. The data were collected from fiqh texts related to prayer and analyzed from linguistic, terminological, and pedagogical perspectives, along with explanations of their educational value and possible applications in various language-learning activities. The findings reveal the linguistic and terminological meanings of fiqh vocabulary, which contribute to enriching learners’ vocabulary mastery and helping them understand Islamic texts and use Arabic accurately and effectively. The study also shows that employing these vocabularies in one reading text, one dialogue, and three language exercises contributes to the development of speaking and reading skills and promotes the integration between linguistic and religious aspects in teaching Arabic to non-native speakers.
