Lovers of Arabic language! Grab this opportunity!!

Dear sisters and brothers, Assalamu Alaikum.

Yesterday I was happy to find a fabulous e-mail from the Admin of Shaykh Dr. V. Abdur Rahim’s website conveying some wonderful news for all students, teachers, parents, organisations and institutes interested in the teaching-learning of Arabic language.

I wish to share this good news with the readers of my blog. Therefore I am reproducing the content of the e-mail with the kind permission of the Admin of the Shaykh’s blog:

Now available at the website of the Institute of Teaching Arabic as a Foreign Language, Islaamic University of Madinah, are the 3 Madinah Arabic Books, in a new fully-interactive format which enhances the enjoyment of learning and accelerates the rate at which material is understood and recalled.

The site presents audio files and written lessons of the entire Madinah Arabic Course (3 Volumes), along with audios and text of the entire 2-year Arabic Language and Islaamic Studies curriculum which is authored and compiled by our respected Shaykh, and comprise various lessons in Qur’aan, Hadiith, Fiqh, Siirah, Stories of the Prophets, etc.

The special feature for non-natives is that all lessons and audios are available in Arabic, along with the translation in the language you wish to have translated.

For example, an English-speaker has the translation provided (in writing) on the screen as they listen to each word and sentence from the text, dialogues, exercises, vocabulary etc from any one lesson.

One has the option to close the translation facility if one is fluent in Arabic.

The benefit of providing a written on-line translation and not a vocal one alongside the vocalised Arabic, is to enhance listening fluency of the Arabic.

Lessons are prepared with colours, carefully-coded to teach  the lexical and grammatical elements.

There are many foreign languages at this site which the Madinah Books and 2-year syllabus can be viewed in, and studied.

This is a tremendous facilitation for non-native speakers of Arabic worldwide.

Important Note: The audios and site material work best when the site is viewed through Internet Explorer (7). The site does not fully operate through some other Internet Browsers (like Mozilla Firefox) so please view the site via Internet Explorer (7).

Click this link.  And E n j o y learning the l a n g u a g e of the Qur’an!

(If you are using a web browser other than Internet Explorer, please switch to Internet Explorer at this point to have full access to material).

We hope all students, teachers, parents, institutions etc benefit greatly from this rich, interactive Arabic teaching resource which paves the way for non-natives to master Arabic, in shaa Allaah.

If you are doing the 3 Madinah Books, the above site should be your primary on-line resource to help teach you.
