Abstract
The purpose of this study is to answer the minimum use of case studies approach by the Master candidates of Arabic Language Education at State Islamic Universities (PTKIN) in Indonesia. In fact, theoretically, the case study approach is said to be not only able to solve learning problems but it can also provide recommendations for solving Arabic Language Education problems in formal and informal institutions. This research is qualitative research. Data were collected in two ways. Firstly, an open-ended questionnaire distributed to the Master candidates of Arabic Language Education. Secondly, searching the research archives of four campuses, namely UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta, UIN Surabaya, IAIN Tulungagung, IAIN Surakarta, accessed at campus repository page in the period of 2008 - 2018. This research reveals two main problems. First is from the personal aspects of researchers. The level of the researchers understanding of case studies is superficial. Research using case studies requires considerable time and huge amount of costs. Second is from the aspect of methodological accuracy. There are a number of principle concept mistakes found. For example; in making problem formulations, considering the location and time of research, and a reliable research process.
