Why Arabic

Allah Sent Down the Quran in Arabic So That It May Be Understood

إِنَّا أَنزَلْنَاهُ قُرْآنًا عَرَبِيًّا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ

Innaa anzalnaahu qur'aanan 'arabiyyan la'allakum ta'qiluun

Indeed, We sent it down as an Arabic Quran, so that you may understand.

QS Yusuf: 2

Mastering Arabic opens the door to understanding Allah's message in its original language, so your relationship with the Quran feels more alive and close.

Reviews

Stories from Arabi Arabic Students

4.9 From 34 learner and guardian reviews

My child began without knowing a single letter. Now they read words smoothly and cheerfully bring home a new word every day.

I assumed I had missed my chance to learn Arabic. With evening online sessions and a patient teacher, I am reading vocalized text now.

I wanted to read classical books. Once nahwu and shorof clicked, I found the courage to read unvocalized text and follow its meaning.

FAQ

Questions About the Arabic Course in Surabaya

Questions that apply in every city, such as method, levels, and fees, are answered on the main page: Read the Arabic Language FAQ

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 shifts (tashrif) along standard patterns (wazan). Basic nahwu is introduced at level B1 through the rules of the noun such as marifah, idhafah, and harf jar. Deeper shorof arrives at level B2 as you enter the world of fi'il, once letters, vocabulary, and basic conversation are in hand.
