the Arabic language learning also involves non-Muslim in various levels of education including higher education
institutions. Thus, this article will discuss the perception of non-Muslims towards learning the Arabic language. The
objective of this study is to explore their perceptions of learning Arabic language in order to ensure that the content of
Arabic learning in line with the purpose of learning the language. This study is a qualitative study involving interviews
with seven non-Muslim students studying Arabic at Universiti Sultan Zainal Abidin (UniSZA). The findings showed that all
respondents gave a positive response in learning the Arabic language. The responses given involve the teaching methods
practiced in order to master the Arabic language and to gain motivation in learning the language. All these responses
indicate that the perception of non-Muslims towards learning Arabic language is positive if the learning process can
be carried out properly and effectively. Some of the suggestions which are related to teaching Arabic language for nonMuslim
students are also discussed in this article as an input that can be used by teachers of the Arabic language. |
