Abstract

Abstract:
Learning Arabic syntax in Iranian universities is an important lessson in teaching Arabic language, and has many challenges and obstacles. Of course, these barriers are not limited to Iranian students and Arabs are also faced with these challenges in learning Arabic syntax. This research uses a descriptive-analytical method to study the traditional and modern methods of teaching Arabic syntax and the problems and obstacles facing undergraduate students in Arabic language and literature in order to find solutions to these challenges and barriers, the three main components of the teaching and learning process, including a professor, student and subject matter, have been studied. The results of the research showed that only one method cannot be emphasized and ignored other methods and in order to do so, taking all educational practices into account, they should eliminate the inefficient methods of teaching syntax and pave the ground for students to participate in the classroom and, based on examples of students' daily life, professors should introduce a book to students that presented a methodology and avoid the syntactic rules of use and the differences between the synagogues of Basra and Kufa.
