ANALISIS KOMPARATIF I’RAB DALAM DUA ASPEK: STUDI PERBANDINGAN ANTARA I’RAB LAFZHI DAN I’RAB TAQDIRI

Abstract

This study aims to comparatively analyze the two main forms of i’rab in Arabic grammar: i’rab lafzhi (phonetic declension) and i’rab taqdiri (implicit declension), both of which play a crucial role in understanding classical and contemporary Arabic texts, especially in Islamic contexts. Employing a descriptive-comparative qualitative approach, this research explores the structural characteristics, syntactic functions, and varying complexities of both forms. Data were collected through the examination of classical grammatical texts such as Alfiyyah Ibn Malik and Sharh Ibn ‘Aqil, alongside contemporary linguistic studies. The findings reveal that i’rab lafzhi is explicit and phonologically observable, making it more accessible for beginner learners, whereas i’rab taqdiri is implicit and requires deeper morphological analysis. These differences significantly influence pedagogical strategies, suggesting a gradual and contextual teaching approach. The study concludes that a comprehensive understanding of both forms of i’rab not only enhances linguistic competence but also strengthens interpretive accuracy in Arabic syntactic analysis and Islamic textual exegesis.
