Course Overview

Classical Arabic Course Overview

The classical Arabic course at Duha Canadian Quran Academy addresses the grammatical and morphological systems of Fusha Arabic in full depth. Instruction moves from foundational case endings and verb patterns through to reading and analysing extended classical passages with accuracy and understanding. 

Classes are live, one-to-one or in small groups, with scheduling that accommodates Canadian work, study, and family routines. Each learner’s progress is assessed at the end of every stage and the pace is set by the individual, not a fixed group timeline. 

Course Outcomes

What Are the Outcomes of the Classical Arabic Course

Completing the classical Arabic course develops lasting grammatical command of formal Arabic and the ability to read classical texts independently.

Quran
1

Accurate Analysis of Classical Arabic Grammar and Case Endings

Learners acquire the ability to identify and apply the Arabic case system (iʿrāb), including nominative, accusative, and genitive constructions and their governing factors. This skill underlies correct reading and comprehension of any classical Arabic text. 

The course builds this ability through analysed passages, moving from short structured sentences to extended classical texts as the learner’s grammatical confidence and accuracy grow. 

Quran
2

Reading Classical Arabic Prose with Authentic Comprehension

Students develop the ability to read classical Arabic prose and poetry with correct vowelling and genuine understanding, moving beyond word-by-word translation toward holistic comprehension. 

Reading practice is drawn from a range of classical sources, exposing learners to the stylistic variety across different genres and periods of Arabic literature and Islamic scholarship. 

Quran
3

Mastery of Arabic Morphology and the Root-and-Pattern System

Learners study and apply Arabic morphology (Sarf), including the major verb patterns (’awzān), derived nominal forms, and the triliteral root system underlying Arabic word formation. 

This knowledge allows learners to analyse unfamiliar words, understand their grammatical role, and expand reading comprehension significantly beyond memorised vocabulary. 

Quran
4

Rich Classical Arabic Vocabulary from Primary Texts

The course builds vocabulary drawn from classical sources, introducing terms and expressions specific to formal Arabic prose, Quranic language, and early Islamic scholarship. 

Vocabulary is introduced in context through reading passages and revisited across the programme, with review built into the structure to ensure retention and active use throughout the classical Arabic course.

5

The Ability to Approach Scholarly Arabic Texts Independently

By the advanced stages of the classical Arabic course, learners can engage with classical scholarly texts using the grammatical tools and vocabulary needed for independent reading and basic analytical commentary. 

This is developed through graduated reading tasks that increase in density and complexity across the programme, building the stamina and precision that classical Arabic study demands.

Curriculum Overview

What You Will Learn in the Classical Arabic Course

The classical Arabic course develops four foundational competencies in formal Fusha Arabic.

1. Classical Arabic Grammar (Nahw)

Learners study the grammatical case system of classical Arabic, including case markers, the rules of grammatical government (al-ʿAmil), sentence types, and the patterns of noun-verb-adjective agreement. Each point is drilled through the analysis of classical examples, not isolated grammar drills.

2. Arabic Morphology

The course covers the triliteral root system and the major verb and noun patterns of Arabic morphology (Sarf). Learners develop the ability to recognise derived forms and parse unfamiliar words — a skill critical to reading any classical text with confidence.

3. Reading Classical Prose with Correct Vowelling and Parsing

Students practise reading classical Arabic passages with accurate short vowels, developing the ability to vowel unvowelised texts based on grammatical knowledge alone. Passages are drawn from graded classical sources appropriate to the learner's stage.

4. Classical Vocabulary and Recurring Expressions in Formal Arabic

New vocabulary is drawn from classical texts relevant to the learner's goals, building a word bank of formal and classical Arabic terms. Recurring classical formulations and idiomatic expressions are highlighted and reinforced throughout the programme.
