Unlocking Arabic
ARABIC LANGUAGE PROGRAMME · 2027
You recite the words.
Take the next step towards understanding them.
Imagine recognising words as you listen to the Qur’an. Following the meaning of a verse with greater understanding. Opening an Arabic text and beginning to find your own way through it.
That journey begins with learning the language.

A glimpse of learning at Bradford Muslim College.
YOUR NEXT CHAPTER BEGINS JANUARY 2027
Start: Week commencing 11 January 2027
Duration: 36-week programme
Mode: On-campus only · Open to: Brothers & Sisters
FROM “ONE DAY” TO YOUR FIRST LESSON
Make this the year you begin.
Perhaps you have wanted to learn Arabic for years. Perhaps you began, then lost momentum. Or perhaps you are ready to go further than the foundations.
Unlocking Arabic gives that intention a place in your week: a regular evening class, a structured programme and study with Shaykh Abdul Hafeez Aziz.
Build your vocabulary. Understand how the language works. Work towards a closer engagement with the Qur’an and the texts of our tradition.
