Rifqi Aulia Erlangga, Mursid Saleh, Dwi Rukmini, Ahmad Sofwan Introduction "And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me. (QS. 51:56)" Praying is not only set by God to people, it is more to people's needs since God doesn't need anything from the people.The people who devote themselves to God will not make His authority bigger.Even there are many rebellious people, His Majesty and Authority will not be decreased.God Almighty obliges praying due to His Endless Love to people.Praying is absolutely people's need since they were created to pray, from which they get their own benefits.Praying is the only way to be safe in the world and the hereafter.
It is generally known that praying can make heart quiet and peaceful.If there is only profit loss trade, it can be concluded that people will get more benefits while God will get nothing (since He owns anything).The count of 'praying trade' is like people do Dhuha pray for the sake of getting a car, a house or others.It is not wrong, but this is normal.
In a higher maqam, praying concept is not just an obligation or necessity, but it is more to love and serious effort to have a closer relationship to The Creator.Praying only has purpose that is to get His blessings.Praying in a literal meaning is doing all obligations and keeping away from prohibitions without asking or expecting merits.Whatever it is, praying is done to get blessing from Allah and keep away from His anger.
Allah has promised the believing men and believing women gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they abide eternally, and pleasant dwellings in gardens of perpetual residence; but approval from Allah is greater.It is that which is the great attainment.(QS.9:72).
These days, many people only see praying from what they can see even though someone prays not for the sake of riya, other people will tend to judge from people's faith from the pray they can see.Take an example, people will judge from how long people do praying or how long surah they read when they become an Imam.The longer the stronger faith this particular person might have.Similar to people who give alms without being exposed will be considered as less faithful compared to those who give alms openly completed with some news.
It can be concluded that the two people mentioned above are good.Not doing the praying must be avoided since it breaks God's rules.We have to be certain that God will give His appreciation for those who pray secretly or openly.Everyone has his own way to get closer to God.Faith has its own quantity and the closeness of a person to God has its own levels.God is the only judge here.
Whatever the people choose to hide or expose their pray, let's just expect that they have good intention (for example being a role model for those who expose their pray).Teaching or giving example in praying, especially mahdah pray, is quite necessary since it needs some good preparations and procedures so that people can pray orderly and respectfully.
In education department, the need of mastering two kinds of praying is clear from one of the purposes which students from Perguruan Tinggi Agama Islam (PTAI) want to achieve.Take an example, IAIN Salatiga expects that its graduates have competence to apply and teach mahdah and ghairumahdah praying in rahmatanlilalamin.
International Class Program (ICP) IAIN Salatiga has a program to gather and sharpen the 'super' students to get more knowledge to be applied in the society.The level of God's faith is absolute.It will be much better if the alumni have brains and master another language.It can be imagined that they will give great impacts in the future.In short, one characteristic from International Class Program is to master Arabic and English.The students get their lessons using both languages.One examination they have to go through is praying.Therefore, the students are required to master at least another language.Students are required to explain and teach praying in English.It cannot be denied that students' backgrounds are various: pesantren alumni, Madrasah Aliyah or general schools.Hence, the SIC students must take test and hard selections; it is not a guarantee that they will pass the praying test easily.That's why praying education is necessary for them.
There is a burden for PTAI students in the society since the alumni are considered as religion and praying experts.The burden gives them difficulties since they have higher expectations from the society.They have a dilemma when they want to study religion actively.Take an example when someone wants to do Gerhana pray, there must be some sarcastic comments from his surroundings since he is a PTAI student.It happened because students of IAIN, especially international class program are considered religion leaders.It is unavoidable to get sarcastic comments if they don't know things related to pray.
It is a common phenomenon to happen to many Muslims outside PTAI who want to study how to pray.From a short observation, it can be concluded that Muslims are embarrassed to ask about how to pray since the society will label them as a false Muslim.For that reason, short videos take a very important role.When they cannot ask directly to other people, they can access YouTube or other sites that provide how to pray so that they can study it by themselves properly.They don't need to worry for their lack of knowledge about praying procedures anymore.
Discussing about SIC students, they are obliged to study 'more' than regular students, so that's why they have great burden.Some non-daily prays can be their burden, for example tasbih pray, Istisqa pray, etc.Therefore, they need some alternative ways so they can have fun and motivation.
Combining praying procedures and study English can be realized from the video that will be produced in this research.By using Research and Development, it will be observed what praying procedures they need.Then the video with English and Indonesian subtitles will be produced.At the end, the video will be validated by some experts.
Later in class, the use of the video will depend on the lecturers on how to teach praying procedures.When the final video is used, the lecturers should insert this video in their teaching materials that can create fun atmosphere in class.
There are three problem formulations, how to identify the process of praying tutorial video in English that SIC-IAIN Salatiga students need?How is the process of praying tutorial video in English for students of SIC-IAIN Salatiga?How is the process of validating the final praying video tutorial in English?How is students' perception towards the video?
The Description and Kinds of Religious Praying In Islam.
In etymology, praying or is derived from Arabic language "abidaya'budu-abdan-ibaadatan'.Ibadah or praying means obedient, subservient and humble.Those have almost similar meanings.The people who are obedient, subservient and humble in front of God are called 'abid'.'Abid' means those who prays or prayer.
The scope of praying in Islam has many descriptions.When people do something good for themselves or others as stated in rules is called praying in Islam.The rules are 1).The practice done in praying is required as stated in syara' rules and not against them.If the practice is against the rules, it won't be considered as praying practice.2).All the practices in praying have good intentions.It means that the practices are done for the sake of their own goodness, to gratify their family or to give benefits for others and the universe.3).The practices in praying are done beautifully as stated by Rasulullah SAW: "God loves to see everyone of you makes something by gratifying it" (Muslim) 4).When they do the practices in praying, it is essential to do them according to syara' rules and their boundaries.They are not to do something cruel, treacherous, cheating, oppressive and seizing other people's belongings.5).They are not to ignore obligatory practices such as shalat, zakat, and others.
Looking at the above mentioned, the scope of praying has many descriptions.Muslims have to do the practices in praying according to their ability and power to get God's blessings.
Praying is divided into two, they are mahdoh and ghairumahdoh praying (Shihab, 2003:356).The first is Mahdhoh praying.It is a practice that has purpose to have a good relationship between a person and Allah SWT.The principles in mahdhoh praying describes that all practices are permitted unless there are rules against them.In this kind of practice, Allah disallows some creativity since He is the One who has it.People don't have any choices but being obedient and subservient to the rules.Some practices belong to mahdhoh are sholat, fasting, hajj, tayamum, umrah, etc. the second is Ghairumahdhoh.It is a practice which people do to have good relationship with other people.It can be considered as muamalah.

English Learning
Brown (2000: 7) stated that learning is an activity to obtain certain knowledge about something through experience or instructions.The definition stated: Learning is a relatively permanent change towards people in their attitude and a result of strong practice (Kimble & Garmezy, 1963: 133quoted by Brown, 2000: 7).Further, Brown described learning definition as follow: 1) Learning is an acquisition or obtaining, 2) Learning is information or creativity storage 3) Retention process that involves in storage, memory and cognitive organization, 4) Learning involves being active, self awareness on what happen in and outside, 5) Learning is relatively permanent but easily forgotten, 6) Learning involves in some practices, the strong practice, 7) Learning is an attitude change.
Some theories have been developed in learning a foreign language or acquisition that has close relationship with general theories.Fauziati (2016) has summarized some learning principles to study a foreign language like behaviorism, cognition, human and constructivism.Knowing that learning a language is only to learn the definition of the language, but it is also related to strategies and learning methods which are possible to use.Some learning strategies of the students can be identified and taught for the incompetent students.It has great potentials to improve the development of a language class.A foreign language teacher can teach the students about how to apply learning strategies in class in various ways and how to develop the strategies to be more creative in teaching a language (O'malley and friends, 1985: 552-553).

Multimedia and Its Use in Class
The media is derived from Latin language and it is a plural form from medium.Literally, it means mediator.Media is any forms that can be used to deliver a message from a sender to recipient that can stimulate thought, feeling, attention and interest of students in their learning process (Sadiman et al, 2002).Generally, multimedia involve graphic combination, texts, sound, video, and animation.The combination is a unity that displays information, message, or learning materials.The concept of combining automatically needs some hardware tools and a computer.Multimedia has a purpose that is delivering information in a fun, interesting, easy and clear way.(Suyanto, 2003).
One of the media is video without replacing teachers' roles as a teacher.It is a supplementary tool that can create more fun atmosphere; and can be one real idea to teach in class using technology-based media (Agodini, Dynarski, Honey, and Levin, 2003) The importance of using video in teaching a foreign language is in accordance to communicative learning theory in all education institutes around the world.Some experts have stated that media has roles on improving learning process.Beside discussing about the use of video and its communicative based-learning (Cummins, 1989;Ciccone, 1995di Bal-Gezegin, 2014), video has animportant role in culture.The use of the video as a source of language and culture target has resulted in innovation new effective teaching.Quoted from Coniam (2001)Bal-Gezegin, (2014), there are other reasons why video has become an interesting topic in a language class.Video represents contexts and discourse (Geddes dan White, 1978 in Bal-Gezegin 2014), paralinguistic features (Stempleski dan Arcario 1992 in Bal-Gezegin 2014) and it can be used as a scoring source in a language class (Brett, 1997 di Bal-Gezegin 2014).
The pluses of a video are have moving features and visual elements together with sound, it will improve students' understanding on the materials they are learning since they both listen and watch.(Harmer, 2001).Mayer (2001) explained that watching audio visual media looks like a passive activity, but actually audio visual media is a high cognitive activity that can be considered as an active learning process.Mayer (2001) proved that video can make students get their understanding in a language.
