RECONSTRUCTING THE EPISTEMOLOGY OF MUQADDIMAH ILM AL-LUGHAH AL-'ARABIYYAH: INTEGRATING PHILOSOPHY OF LANGUAGE, CLASSICAL ARABIC LINGUISTICS, AND MODERN LINGUISTICS FOR ARABIC LANGUAGE EDUCATION
Keywords:
Muqaddimah Ilm al-Lughah al-'Arabiyyah, epistemology, philosophy of language, classical Arabic linguistics, Arabic language education.Abstract
This study aims to reconstruct the epistemology of Muqaddimah Ilm al-Lughah al-'Arabiyyah by integrating the philosophy of language, classical Arabic linguistic scholarship, and modern linguistic theories to establish a comprehensive conceptual foundation for Arabic language education. Employing a qualitative library research design, the study critically analyzes classical works of Arabic linguists alongside contemporary literature on linguistics, language philosophy, and Arabic language pedagogy. The findings reveal that Muqaddimah Ilm al-Lughah al-'Arabiyyah has traditionally been presented as an introductory discipline emphasizing linguistic definitions and historical development, with limited attention to its broader epistemological significance. This study proposes a reconstructed framework consisting of five interrelated dimensions: philosophical foundations of language, classical Arabic linguistic heritage, modern linguistic perspectives, communicative language competence, and pedagogical application. The integration of these dimensions bridges the intellectual legacy of classical Arabic scholarship with contemporary approaches to language education, enabling a more holistic understanding of Arabic as both a scientific discipline and a medium of communication. The proposed framework contributes theoretically to Arabic linguistics and practically to curriculum development, instructional innovation, and competency-based Arabic language learning in higher education
