Four Language Skills
The Four Maharah That Build Your Arabic
In Pontianak, Arabi's ustadz and ustadzah teach Arabic Language with the Arabi method arranged in gradual steps, so your child in areas such as Benua Melayu, Sungai Bangkong, or Tanjung Hulu learns at a comfortable and directed pace, from the basics to lasting levels. The Arabi Method keeps the four skills in balance, so the rules are put to work right away and stay with you as you read and speak.
01
Istima (Listening)
Tuning the ear to catch the sounds of the letters, the harakat (vowel marks), and classical Arabic (fushha) sentences with accuracy, the ground on which correct pronunciation is built.
02
Kalam (Speaking)
Back-and-forth conversation (muhadatsah) with your teacher, from greetings and introducing yourself up to longer exchanges, until the tongue grows comfortable with it.
03
Qiraah (Reading)
Reading vocalized text first, then moving up to unvocalized text, while understanding each word's place through i'rab (case analysis).
04
Kitabah (Writing)
Joining letters and writing from right to left, forming sentences, and reaching simple composition (insya').

FAQ
Questions About the Arabic Course in Pontianak
I do not know the Arabic letters at all, can I still join this course?
You can, without a doubt. You begin at level A1, the introduction to the 28 hijaiyah letters, joining and writing them from right to left, and the places their sounds are formed (makhraj) so pronunciation is accurate. The teacher works with you through musyafahah, face to face, until the correct sound is caught. Complete beginners in Pontianak, from children age 5 to older learners, are welcomed and guided patiently.
What is the Arabi Method in learning Arabic?
The Arabi Method is a way of teaching Arabic that sets the lessons in a sensible order, from sound to word, to sentence, and on to a whole text, with the four skills (istima, kalam, qiraah, kitabah) trained in balance. Each meeting opens with muroja'ah (review) of earlier material before anything new, and pronunciation and i'rab are corrected on the spot by the teacher, so the rules settle in and get used right away.
What are nahwu and shorof, and when do they begin to be taught?
Nahwu studies sentence structure and the position of words (i'rab), while shorof studies how the form of a word changes (tashrif) along standard patterns (wazan). Basic nahwu is first introduced at level B1 through the rules of the noun such as marifah, idhafah, and harf jar. Deeper shorof follows at level B2 as you enter the world of fi'il, once letters, vocabulary, and basic conversation are already in place.
I am already an adult and busy with work, can I still learn from zero?
You can. Many of Arabi's adult learners start from zero between the ages of 30 and 60, fitting lessons around their work, and make good progress within a few months. You begin at level A1 with a patient teacher and the orderly Arabi Method. Meeting times are set together to suit your routine, and classes are available private at home across Pontianak as well as online by video call.
Does mastering Arabic help in understanding the Quran directly?
Yes, this is where the course is headed. With enough vocabulary and firm nahwu and shorof rules, you can read Arabic text and then follow the meaning of the verses in their own language. Allah sent down the Quran in Arabic so that people may understand it, as He said in QS Yusuf verse 2. Understanding the language makes your bond with the Quran feel more alive and closer.
How long until I can read unvocalized Arabic without harakat?
The time differs from one person to the next, shaped by where you start and how often you practice. Reading unvocalized text begins to be trained at level C1, once the world of fi'il and i'rab is firmly rooted in the earlier levels. With the steady order of the levels and regular practice, many learners show encouraging progress. Teachers share regular reports so your growth is measurable.
What is the course fee in Pontianak, and does it differ from city to city?
The fee is worked out per 60-minute session and follows the level you take, from Rp55,100 at level A1 up to Rp110,826 at level C2, the same in every city with no hidden costs. The higher the level, the deeper the material. The initial consultation is free via WhatsApp at 628164896943 to find the level that fits before you decide.
What is the difference between learning muhadatsah at Arabi and memorizing vocabulary from an app on your own?
An app helps you add vocabulary (mufradat), while conversation needs a partner who corrects your pronunciation and sentence structure. At Arabi, an ustadz or ustadzah trains two-way muhadatsah, corrects makhraj and i'rab as you go, then guides you to build correct sentences. The Arabi App rounds out your own practice between sessions with the teacher.
Can Arabic Language lessons in Pontianak be held privately at home?
Yes. Arabi's ustadz and ustadzah offer private Arabic Language lessons at home across many areas of Pontianak, from Sungai Jawi, Akcaya, and Benua Melayu to Tanjung Hulu and Siantan, with a schedule that fits your family's daily life in this equatorial city.

Children in Pontianak can start Arabic Language from an early age, and the levels are matched to each student's ability. Arabi will help you recognise your child's readiness first so learning feels comfortable and gradual within the daily life of Muslim families in Pontianak.
Is Arabic Language in Pontianak available online?
It is available. Besides private lessons at home, families in Pontianak can learn Arabic Language online through the Arabi App, so students can keep reciting the Quran with guidance even when schedules are busy or distances between Pontianak districts become a challenge.

Yes. Arabi teachers serve families across Pontianak, including Sungai Jawi, Pontianak Barat, Sungai Bangkong, Pontianak Barat, Akcaya, Pontianak Selatan, and other areas. Sessions run privately at your home or online, so Arabic Language stays accessible wherever you are in Pontianak.
