This is the explanation of the first book of the world renowned Madinah Arabic Course series, originally authored by Dr. V Abdur Rahim (may Allah have mercy on him), and taught in the Islamic University of Madinah, Saudi Arabia. Highly recommended for anyone studying the Madinah Book course and desiring to grasp the principles of the Arabic language.

The Madinah University Arabic language courser neesds no introduction, It is an intentationally recognized series authored by Dr. V Abdur Rahim and specifically geared towards teaching Arabic to non-Native Arabic speakers. The series continues to be taught inside the Islamic University’s language institute, and is a staple at many language centres, schools, and masaajid worldwide. One of the main challenges for those who have not been granted the opportunity to study Arabic formally is finding a qualified teacher who can explain this series. The current lesson keys which accompany the English rendition of the series fall short of
providing the learner with a strong foundation in understanding the core principles of Arabic grammar.

Being a graduate of the Islamic University and an Arabic instructor, I realised the importance of translating the explanation of the series. This explanation was authored by one of the renowned teachers who taught in the Islamic University’s language program, Shaykh Hussain ibn Ahmad in Abdullah Ali ‘Ali. So, here we are, presenting the first part of his beneficial explanations to the English-speaking world, asking Allah to facilitate the translation of the remaining three parts. Indeed, He is the best of those who are asked, and the One with whom reliance is placed.
