The Effectiveness of the Qiyāsiyyah Method in Enhancing Nahwu Comprehension among Female Students at Muhammadiyah Mu'allimin Qur'an Memorization Islamic Boarding School, Sawah Dangka

Abstract

The problem addressed in this study is that most seventh-grade female students at the Muhammadiyah Mu'allimin Qur'an Memorization Islamic Boarding School, Sawah Dangka, still experience difficulties in learning Nahwu (Arabic grammar). These difficulties are reflected in their limited ability to read Arabic texts accurately, apply correct grammatical endings, identify the grammatical functions of words in sentences, and formulate the grammatical rules they have previously learned. Therefore, this study aims to determine the effectiveness of the Qiyāsiyyah method in enhancing students' understanding of Nahwu and to measure its effectiveness based on the improvement in learning outcomes. This study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental method with a Nonequivalent Control Group Design, involving an experimental group and a control group. Data were collected through tests and documentation. The findings revealed that the implementation of the Qiyāsiyyah method significantly improved students' understanding of Nahwu. The results of the Independent Samples t-test showed a significance value (Sig. 2-tailed) of 0.000, which is lower than the significance level of 0.05, indicating a statistically significant difference between the experimental and control groups and supporting the acceptance of the alternative hypothesis. Furthermore, the N-Gain analysis indicated that the experimental group's average gain score reached 66.39%, which falls into the moderately effective category according to the N-Gain interpretation criteria adopted in this study. Therefore, it can be concluded that the Qiyāsiyyah method is effective in enhancing Nahwu comprehension among seventh-grade female students.
