About the Site
This site is
designed to teach people from a non-arabic speaking
background how to read arabic, in particular Qur'anic
arabic. Each of the lessons has been inspired by the IQRA
series of arabic teaching books, as well as a variety
of other publications. These lessons are online to
provide easy access to those who wish to learn
arabic, but may experience difficulty in accessing
adequate material in their area.
Do I kneed
any prior knowledge of Arabic to do these lessons?
No. These lessons
are designed specifically for those people who have
had little or no exposure to the arabic language
whatsoever. However, a reasonable grasp of the
English language is necessary to understand some of
the lesson explanations.
How
difficult will this be?
You will find that
if you are willing to put a reasonable degree of
effort into the lessons, and you practice the skills
you have learnt on a regular basis, learning to read
Arabic will be much easier than you had ever
anticipated. This site will take you as far as is
necessary to read Qur'anic Arabic, however beyond
that, all that will be required will be regular
practice to improve the speed at which you read.
Lesson
Format
The course is
split into a series of lessons starting with the most
essential and basic concepts of Arabic such as vowels
and the alphabet. Audio recordings of all arabic
words in the site have been provided to help the
student correct their pronounciation at all stages.
