Arabic grammar is crucial for accurately understanding the Qur’an and Islamic texts. Even small mistakes in word structure or placement can change meanings—sometimes leading to confusion or serious errors.
Many students avoid learning Nahu and Sarf because they seem too complex or time-consuming.
That’s why IOM has created this short, beginner-friendly course. In just two months, you’ll get a clear, simple, and engaging introduction to the two foundations of Arabic grammar.
