Learn How to Access Classical Arabic Texts

Enrollment is Closed | See you next year!

Reopens after Ramadan 1445/2024

Learning Arabic doesn’t have to be difficult.

We have listened to thousands of students and there is a theme:

The Arabic Frustration Cycle

Your Instructor : Faraz Malik

Growing up I didn’t start speaking until I was 5 years old.

My family was concerned and took me to multiple speech therapists. As a result, I grew up struggling to speak English, my first language. No one ever thought I would be able to speak and understand multiple languages, let alone English.

How did someone like me reach fluency in Arabic?

I realized that my approach in understanding languages was all wrong. I couldn’t just pick up the language by listening and practicing it. I needed a clear and concise methodology. I needed to go at a reasonable pace. And I needed to maintain my level of motivation.

Now I want to share that journey with you.

My goal is to help remove the stigma from Arabic being an intimidating and difficult language.

If I could do it, so can you!

😃 THIS IS FOR YOU IF…

  • You have familiarity with the Arabic Letters

  • You have tried other programs but you felt the pace was always too fast.

  • You know SOME Arabic and would like to increase your knowledge and mastery of the language

  • You want to direct access to Classical Texts such as: Quran, Hadith, Poetry, Literature, Philosophy, etc.

  • You need a consistent accountable program that motivates you even when you don’t want to keep studying.

🤗 YOU DO NOT

  • Have to Know Tajweed – this course is focused on understanding what the Quran is saying

  • Have to Know Arabic Vocabulary – these are skills you can learn without vocabulary knowledge

  • Have to leave your Job/School – many of our students have full-time jobs or are full-time students

  • Have to be Young – We have had students as old as 77 years old

  • Need to Worry – Our job is to make Arabic easy and accessible :)

Pedagogy

Arabic Daily has divided Classical Arabic learning into 6 levels. Each level is the equivalent to a semester. Classes run twice a week for about an hour allowing busy individuals to learn without disrupting their schedules.

The first three levels fall under our Fundamentals Track. The goal of this track is to build the framework of Arabic. We teach you all the tools you need to navigate through Arabic.

The last three levels fall under our Reading Track. The goal of this track is to build vocabulary and reading practice by practically using these tools.

There is a combination of live zoom lessons, open live Q&As, recordings available, and exercises to help you achieve the goal you have been wanting for so long.

You definitely aren’t expected to be able to attend every single live session, and every session is recorded.

Student Journey

The entire journey for a students takes two years. At the end of two years, students will be able to read and translate Classical Arabic texts. We understand that two years can be intimidating and a long commitment. This is why you will have to option to stop after the FCA Series.

The FCA Series will end at the beginning of Ramadan 2024. At this point you will be automatically be enrolled in our Ramadan Crash Course. You will then have the option to enroll in our RCA series.
