PEMBELAJARAN MAHARAH ISTIMA’ MENGGUNAKAN KITAB MUHAWAROH HADITSAH DENGAN PENDEKATAN CL (COLABORATIVE LEARNING) DI MTS AN-NUUR PALEMBANG

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the process and effectiveness of teaching Arabic listening skills (maharah istima’) using the Kitab Muhawaroh Haditsah through the Collaborative Learning (CL) approach at MTs An-Nuur Palembang. The background of the study stems from students’ low motivation and achievement in Arabic listening skills due to monotonous, teacher-centered methods. This research employs a mixed-method approach combining qualitative and quantitative techniques. Data were collected through observation, interviews, documentation, and pre-test and post-test instruments. The study involved seventh-grade students as participants. The findings show that implementing the Collaborative Learning approach with Kitab Muhawaroh Haditsah significantly improved students’ engagement and listening comprehension. Quantitative analysis revealed that the students’ average score increased from 42.5% in the pre-test to 83% in the post-test, with a significance value of <0.05 in the t-test, indicating a statistically significant improvement. Thus, the use of the Kitab Muhawaroh Haditsah through Collaborative Learning proved effective in enhancing Arabic listening skills and fostering active, cooperative learning among students.
