Arabic Course for English Speaking Students /Vol -1

Learning Arabic provides access to the Qur’an, hadith literature, and centuries of Islamic scholarship. For English-speaking beginners, a structured introduction is essential. This first volume of Dr. V. Abdur Rahim's well-known course establishes the foundations of Arabic learning through a progressive educational approach.

About the Book

Arabic Course for English Speaking Students /Vol -1 is the first volume of a three-volume Arabic language course by Dr. V. Abdur Rahim.

The library identifies UK Islamic Academy as the publisher of its 2002 edition.

The course originated in the educational environment of the Islamic University of Madinah and was developed for students whose first language was not Arabic.

Its principal objective is to provide learners with the linguistic foundation needed to understand Arabic expressions and progress toward reading religious and literary texts.

The first volume introduces learners to the early stages of Arabic language study, establishing knowledge that later volumes develop more extensively.

The wider course combines grammatical instruction with vocabulary drawn from both everyday Arabic and Islamic religious usage.

This combination helps students recognize the relationship between language learning and the interpretation of classical texts.

Arabic possesses a grammatical system in which word forms, sentence structure, and relationships between expressions contribute directly to meaning.

Beginning students therefore benefit from learning vocabulary alongside the basic principles governing Arabic sentences.

The course is particularly relevant to those intending to study Qur’anic commentary, hadith, Islamic jurisprudence, prophetic biography, or Arabic literature.

Its progressive three-volume organization distinguishes the first book as an introductory stage rather than an independent advanced grammar manual.

Readers who complete its foundational material can continue with the subsequent volumes to develop greater linguistic competence.
