말레이시아의 아랍어 교육에 관한 연구

The Situation of Arabic Education in Malaysia With Focusing on Islamic Influences

말레이시아의 이슬람 유입은 말레이시아에 아랍어 교육의 실시와 직접적인 관련이 있다. 말레이시아에서 아랍어 학습과 교육은 처음에는 간접적으로 비공식적으로 시작되었으나 이슬람의 발전과 함께 공식적이고 직접적 성격으로 변했다. 아랍어 학습과 교육의 성격 변화는 이슬람의 영향이라는 것이 분명하다. 이슬람의 영향은 아랍어와 말레이어의 동화로 나타나는 한편, 말레이시아에서 아랍어 교육을 촉진하고 장려했다. 특히, 말레이시아가 영국으로부터 독립한 이후 무슬림들 사이에서 이슬람교에 대한 자각과 각성이 일어났고 이는 다시 아랍어 교육 강화에 큰 영향을 주었다.

This study aims to elucidate the situations of Arabic education in Malaysia after the inflow of the Islamic religion to Malaysia. As witnessed in the process of the early conquest and spread of Islam and Arabic Language towards the North Africa, the Fertile Crescent and Persia etc., Islam and Arabic language was definitely inseparable in Arabic education in Malaysia in the viewpoint that Arabic was the language of Koran and Koran was written in Arabic. Islamic religion was introduced to Malaysia through the commercial activities by Muslim traders around 10th century. After Islam was introduced to Malaysia, Arabic began to be taught by pondok system. The situation of Arabic education in Malaysia was not always stable. At one time Arabic in Malaysia was triggered and undermined depending on the political conditions especially during the British rule. After the independence of Malaysia there was a Malayan awakening of Islamic and their Identity resulting in the support of muslims. And today Arabic language is being taught in many and various educational organizations such as different levels of schools, universities, and cottages etc.
