The low level of students’ Arabic listening skills (maharah istima’) requires the use of innovative and interactive learning media to enhance the effectiveness of the learning process. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the FunEasyLearn application as an interactive learning medium in improving the Arabic listening skills of seventh-grade students at MTs NU Raudlatus Shibyan Kudus in the 2025/2026 academic year. This study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental method with a nonequivalent control group design. The sample consisted of 26 students from Class VII C as the experimental group and 25 students from Class VII A as the control group. Data were collected through tests, observation, and documentation and analyzed using the Shapiro–Wilk normality test, Levene’s test of homogeneity, N-Gain analysis, and the Independent Samples t-test. The results showed that the mean score of the experimental group increased from 58.20 in the pretest to 82.20 in the posttest. The N-Gain score was 0.5734 for the experimental group and 0.4530 for the control group, both categorized as moderate. Furthermore, the Independent Samples t-test yielded a significance value of 0.002 (< 0.05), indicating a significant difference between the two groups. Therefore, the FunEasyLearn application was proven effective in improving students’ Arabic listening skills
