Mahmoud HARIRI — 2025-12-31

Conversation is a core skill in teaching Arabic as a foreign language, yet Turkish learners often struggle with limited interaction, anxiety, and low engagement with traditional materials. This study proposes using the question-and-answer style in Prophetic Hadith to develop realistic, meaningful dialogues that combine linguistic and moral dimensions. It aims to enhance learners’ communicative abilities by reconstructing Hadith in accessible forms, designing contemporary dialogue scenarios, and applying role-play and interactive techniques. Meaningful repetition is used to reinforce structures and support natural acquisition. The study concludes that integrating Hadith into conversation lessons improves communicative competence, motivation, and cultural connection.

Phonetic repetition in the Holy Quran and its impact on meaning

Mahdia Benaissa — 2025-12-31

The study of the origin of language and the significance of its sounds has occupied a wide area of linguistic activity over successive eras, starting from the Indians and Greeks and reaching the Arab scholars. This is due to the important role that the linguistic sound plays in guiding meaning, as it is heavily relied upon in conveying and delivering meanings. The meaning that is based on sound is defined as phonetic meaning, which is considered one of the most important linguistic phenomena that involve both the phonetic and semantic levels.

This study has been called "Phono-semantic" in the last decades of the twentieth century, a science that derives its material from the examination of the relationship between sound and meaning in various languages, and this phenomenon is more evident and clearer in the Arabic language. But is there really a relationship between sounds and their meanings in the Arabic language? And to what extent does this relationship reach? And what are its manifestations? And how did our scholars view it? Or what is the extent of utilizing this relationship in the interpretation of the Holy Quran? All these questions I will try to answer in this intervention.

Daif allah Hussein Mohammed . Nasser Mohammed Ahmed Al-K'adany . Al-Doraib — 2025-12-31

The study aimed to identify the level of influence of international university rankings on the institutional identity of Yemeni universities. To achieve the study’s objective, the researchers used the questionnaire as a tool to collect information according to the descriptive analytical approach. It was applied to a deliberate sample of Yemeni universities, numbering (4) universities. Including two government universities (Sana’a University and Aden University) and two private universities (University of Science and Technology and Al-Razi University). The sample size was (400) individuals from academic and administrative leaders, faculty members and graduate students, who were randomly selected. The results of the study showed that the overall impact of global rankings on the institutional identity of Yemeni universities from the point of view of the sample members is a high impact with an arithmetic mean of (3.73) points, and a small standard deviation of (0.367) points, and the academic and research identity was the most affected by global rankings with an arithmetic mean of (3.71) points, corresponding to a “high” degree with a standard deviation of (0.570). The administrative and organizational identity was the least affected by the global rankings with an arithmetic mean of (3.04) points, corresponding to an "average" score with a standard deviation of (.675). The results also showed differences in the average responses for all areas attributable to the study variables. The studyconcluded that Yemeni universities face a strategic choice: either passively integrate into global ranking criteria at the expense of their identity, or adopt a critical and proactive approach that transforms the challenge into an opportunity for reform. The study recommended adopting the second path through: preserving the essence (identity), openness to the world (globality), reforming the internal structure (quality and governance), and unifying efforts (exploiting homogeneity in visions)

The Arabic lexical industry in its different types has known a great deal by the Arab researchers as well as those of occidental.

This industry has well studied and analyzed most of the dictionaries but has marginalized those built up by some orientalist.

This research aims at expliciting the efforts made by some orientalist within Arabic lexical industry. Especially those not well known dictionaries as that of “Med El Kamous” by the German orientalist “Lyn”.

This dictionary is so special in the field of the lexical industry in its bilingualism method. This search then would answer a so vital problematic that is: what is the methodology applied in this dictionary (bilingual)? What is its position within the others made by orientalist?

Popular proverbs in southeastern Tunisia: between functions and meanings

Abdessalem fitouri — 2025-12-31

Popular proverbs in southeastern Tunisia represent an important part of the oral cultural heritage. They serve as a mirror reflecting the Bedouin community’s view of life, popular song constitutes a fundamental pillar of our culture and a living page that reflects the features of our customs and traditions while carrying the collective memory. It is not merely a means of entertainment or a musical rhythm; rather, it embodies the vision through which human beings perceive the world, expressing their emotions, concerns,and aspirations across generations. Popular song distinguishes itself from other forms of oral literature by its ability to accompany individuals in all moments of their lives. It is sometimes linked to festive occasions, yet it goes beyond this framework to become a daily voice that conveys people’s experiences and lived realities through expressions that are both simple and profound.
The article addressed this dimension in greater detail, highlighting the characteristics and forms that popular song takes within prisons, where it transforms from a simple artistic medium into a free space that allows inmates to express their stifled hopes, ambitions, and dreams of freedom. Thus, behind bars, the popular song becomes a psychological refuge and a window open onto a wider world, through which the prisoner regains a sense of humanity and belonging.
