The Arabic language is a decent place in Indonesian society because it is a religious language that coincided with the entry of Islam in this country. The growing interest in it through the ages and continued to try to raise its status continuously until the field of education witnessed a remarkable development in the last decade. However, this status does not necessarily mean that this language has received what it deserves as a religious and foreign language from the engineering and policy of advanced education. The current status of Arabic language education in Indonesia is a transitional phase, as some promising developments are beginning to take place on the one hand, and it is still facing a number of thorny problems on the other. The teaching of Arabic in most institutes in Indonesia is done in a way that explains the rules and the translation of texts into the Indonesian language. In addition, the evaluation system used to measure the learner's linguistic achievement is largely focused on linguistic aspects. The teaching of Arabic language on such a method is a traditional trend and it has to be changed and developed, and since some of the significant shortcomings related to the curriculum, it requires searching for the places of this deficiency in the curriculum of teaching Arabic in the institutes. The framework of the study is determined in the problems of the curriculum of the Arabic language in terms of objectives, content, method and means of education and evaluation. The study will take its place in the language institutes of the Asia Muslims Charity Foundation (AMCF) in Indonesia.

The Arab world has an extremely rich culture and history with diverse region geographical in the Arabian Peninsula. The religion of Islam was spread in Arab firstly by the prophet Muhammad SAW and the only language he spoke was Arabian well as Arabic also is the language of the Quran. There are 300 million Arabic speakers in the world and Arabic is the official language in 22 countries. Arabic is also one of the six official languages in the United Nations (UN). Arabic language education is very important, benefits that received from learning Arabic could implement into daily life and any aspects such as understanding the meaning of the Holy Qur’an and very potential to increase good relations in international affairs especially among Indonesia and Arab countries. However, Arabic teaching in non-native speakers' countries has some challenges. We observe that the biggest challenge teaching Arabic in Indonesia is the lack of knowledge among society about the benefit that we can gain from learning Arabic and the educational curriculum has been relying heavily on aspects of memorizing without any effective aspects or understanding of the Arabic lesson, it caused the low level of awareness to learn Arabic. Refer to the research of Jamsuri Muhammad Syamsudin and Mahdi Mas’ud on 30 students of IIUM indicates the biggest challenge to learn Arabic influenced by psychological factors such as desire, motivation, and un-confident. The question then is how to increase Arabic enthusiasts in non-native speakers’ countries and how to improve the educational system to learn Arabic effectively? The serious effort to increasing Arabic enthusiasts and to improve the educational curriculum is through simplification of the Arabic curriculum, as said before that much of the curriculum on Arabic depends on rote teaching methods that can’t truly benefit today. This can be done through creative ways and implement human behavior-based approaches or multiple forms of incentives to raises enthusiasm among non-native speakers to learn Arabic. We propose technology and fun activities that giving out the rewards and without it feels as if a burden to learn Arabic. This approach needs to be developed because the individuals need to be encouraged to do things that will bring benefits much than the act itself. In conclusion, solving the challenge of Arabic teaching is neither easy and improves its educational curriculum is crucial. It is hoped that Arabic teaching will have innovation for its development and overcome its challenges.

The Arabic language is distinguished by its characteristics that distinguish it from other languages, as it is phonetically and symbolically characterized as well as being distinguished by the number of its letters, which reached twenty-eight letters, and also characterized by the letter “Dhad”. It uses this human device to its fullest and best, and does not neglect one of its functions. The Arabic language has a link with the Islamic religion that will remain until the Day of Resurrection because the one who pledges and cares for it is “Allah“ , the Almighty. Most of the non- native speakers teach the Arabic language in order for them to understand the Islam and Its message. Thus, the Arabic language is greatly concerned ad enjoyed by the non- native leaners . But this desire and demand hindered with difficulties, including the lack of a good teacher, as well as teaching methods, so hope for the development of teaching Arabic to non-native speakers remains possible if we benefit from modern technology in teaching Arabic to non- native leaners.

Regardless to the facts that English is being taught to Indonesian students starting from early age, many Indonesian thrive in learning English. They find it quite troublesome for some to acquire the language especially to the level of communicative competence. Although Krashen (1982:10) states that “language acquirers are not usually aware of the fact that they are acquiring language, but are only aware of the fact that they are using the language for communication”, second language acquisition has several obstacles for learners to face and yet the successfulness of mastering the language never surmounts to the one of the native speakers. Learners have never been able to acquire the language as any native speakers do. Mistakes are made and inter-language is unavoidable. McNeili in Ellis (1985, p. 44) mentions that “the mentalist views of L1 acquisition hypothesizes the process of acquisition consists of hypothesis-testing, by which means the grammar of the learner’s mother tongue is related to the principles of the ‘universal grammar’.” Thus this study intends to find out whether the students go through the phase of interlanguage in their attempt to acquire second language and whether their interlanguage forms similar system as postulated by linguists (Krashen).
