Abstract
This research investigates the development and application of a board game that aims to improve students’ comprehension of prophetic Arabic vocabulary in the context of al-Arba'in al-Nawawiyah. Traditional methods of vocabulary acquisition often rely on rote memorisation, which can disengage students and limit long-term retention, leading to disengagement and limited retention among learners. The proposed board game aims to address these challenges by introducing an interactive and competitive learning environment that enhances engagement and aids in the retention of key Arabic terms. A systematic literature review was conducted based on the databases, which are 1) Mendeley, 2) JSTOR, and 3) Taylor & Francis, as many published journals have high indexes and reliable sources. Through the systematic literature review (SLR), we explore the effectiveness of gamification in language learning, specifically within religious studies, and outline the process of developing a board game tailored to al-Arba'in al-Nawawiyah. The findings reveal the potential of gamification to significantly aid in vocabulary retention and comprehension, especially for non-native speakers engaging with complex religious texts. The paper concludes with suggestions for future research and practical applications in Islamic educational settings to improve prophetic Arabic vocabulary for comprehending al-Arba’in al-Nawawiyah through board game
