The Arabic Grammar courses have been adopted from the unique Arabic Courses of the Islamic University of Madinah. These books are augmented with extra materials such as handouts, highlighting rules and principles in a clear manner so as to make revision and retention much easier. These adaptations devised using our many years of experience, make the transition from one level to the next, much easier.
