Currently the use of technology has been widely developed as a medium of learning in various educational institutions. As a pesantren based university that uses Arabic everyday, the Darussalam Gontor University (UNIDA Gontor) already has learning media both in the form of Arabic language books (Durusullughah Al-Arabiyah), and in the form of applications.

Along with developing augmented reality (AR) technology, a new breakthrough in learning media is needed. This research aims to develop Arabic language learning media by utilizing AR technology. Content taken from the Arabic book Durusullughah Al-Arabiyah by KH. Imam Zarkasyi and KH. Imam Syubani as the founder of Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor. This media is based on Android and is made using tools such as Blender 3D, Corel Draw, and Unity 3D. This application can run on a minimum android smartphone specification OS 4.0 Jelly Bean, 4 inches screen size, 512 MB RAM, free memory space of at least 200 MB and a 13 MP rear camera. The results of research with AR technology are expected to be able to enrich UNIDA Gontor's Arabic language learning media and can be useful for the development of Arabic language learning media in the pesantren campus environment and the general public. For future development, it can utilize other technologies such as Virtual Reality and others.
