As the language of Qu'ran, the Holy book of Islam, Arabic
is the most widely spoken language of the Muslim world. Originating

across the Middle East and is now spoken by some 200 million
people in more than 22 countries worldwide, from Morocco to
Iraq and as far south as Somalia and the Sudan. The language
today has many regional dialects, and modern-day languages of
northern India, Turkey, Portugal and Spain are full of words
of Arabic origin. Take the time to learn Arabic and you'll be
introduced to a vast number of fascinating people and cultures
the world over.
